About India
India has only about one-third the land area of the USA, but it is home to more than 1.25 billion people, second only to China, making it one of the most densely populated major countries in the world. Historically known for its trade routes, vast empires and rich culture dating back thousands of years; India is as rich in culture as it is in beauty. Temples in India can be seen far and wide due to Hinduism, Buddhism and other religions originating there. The people of Assam are a rich and exotic mixture of various backgrounds such as Mongoloid, Indo-Burmese, Indo-Iranian and Aryan. This state is best known for its tea and silk production.
