India is (after China) the second most populous country in the world, the biggest democracy on earth. It’s huge, it’s vast, the area it covers is roughly that of Western Europe .As big as India is it is diverse - diverse in all respects: You will feel that diversity in people, languages, food, cultures, geography, climate and almost everything.
There are 28 states in India with 7 Union territories (**list given below), Every state is unique in its own way. There are about 22 official languages recognized by the constitution plus another estimated 1600 minor languages and dialects spoken. Although Hindi is the official national language, only about 20% of India’s populace speak it as a mother tongue. It is widely spoken in the North, but most people you’ll meet in the South won’t speak Hindi at all. That’s one of the reasons (British imperialism being the other) English is so widely spoken.
The looks, their clothes, their religious ceremonies, their art, their culture, their kind of life varies immensely depending on where you are. It changes with every state. That’s why there is so much diversity in India. A mongoloid featured Buddhist Ladakhi in the North doesn’t have anything in common with a dark skinned Hindu Dravidian of the South.
Its has been 60 years since India got its Independence from Britishers and since then its on its way to be an economy which is growing by leaps and bounds. A majority of the population is getting a good education. There is a growth in infrastructure and industry. Indian markets are open to the world.

Many civilizations were a part of rich cultural heritage that developed through time. Very much in contrast to the modern India growing at a healthy pace to become one of the well developed nations in Asia and the World.
