India

Its older then the civilazations of Mesopotamia, Egypt, & Rome. It gave birth to 3 of the worlds 5 biggest religions, Hinduism, Buddhism, & Sikhism. Its the birth place of the oldest written text the Vedas. The worlds oldest poetry the Ramayan. The worlds oldest writing on medicine the Aurya Ved. And the worlds oldest writing on physical/emotional connection the Kama Sutra....Its the land where Buddha reached Nirvana under the Bodi tree. Its the land that Jesus traveled to during his lost years. Its the land that gave birth to the Aryan people. Its the land Albert Einstien gave some credit to for Math & Science. Its the land Christopher Columbus was looking for before he found America. And its the only country to have an entire ocean named after it....The idea of meditation came from India, yoga comes from India, belly dancing started in India, chess came from India, & its home to the worlds largest movie industry....NOT ENOUGH?....While other countries fight & kill each other for freedom India showed the world that over a billion people can free itself partly by non violence. While other countries are so hardcore they pick one main religion India has no official state religion....STILL NOT ENOUGH?....India is the worlds largest Democracy & proved it by having a Sikh Prime Minister, a Muslim President, & a home for the Dali Lama....They prove it by having the worlds largest Hindu population, largest Sikh population, largest Jain population, largest Bahai population, largest Zoroastrian population, & the 3rd largest Muslim population in the world all living together....INDIA IS NOT PERFECT AT ALL & HAS ALOT OF PROBLEMS....But....There's a reason why alot of people go to India for enlightenment & Mark Twain said it best: "In a way India has been a mother for this world"
