India, officially known as the Republic of India, is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by geographical area, the second most populous country, and the largest democratic republic in the world. India has a coastline of over seven thousand kilometres and borders Pakistan to the northwest; China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the north-east; and Bangladesh and Myanmar to the east. India is adjacent to the Indian Ocean island nations of Sri Lanka, the Maldives and Indonesia. India has been home to advanced civilization since 3300 B.C., when the inhabitants of the Indus River valley developed an urban culture based on commerce and sustained by agricultural trade. Over the milleniums, the subcontinent became a centre of important trade routes, cultural development and vast empires. India has long played a major role in human history. Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism all have their origins in India, while Islam and Christianity enjoy a strong cultural heritage. Despite countless invasions over the past 5000 years, Indian culture and society has been so resilient, that it has either thrown away or completely absorbed any foreign influences, with the social fabric largely remaining unchanged and intact. India emerged as a modern nation-state in 1947, when the subcontinental populace expelled all British rulers in an intense movement of social reforms and forged it into a single nation, thus restoring the glory of the past Indian empires. Modern India's population, wildlife, geographical terrain and climate system are among the most diverse in the world, and India is now considered a possible candidate to be an emerging superpower.
