In addition, it is a land if great physical beauty and contrast. In this post we will explore the diversity of language and religion. We will also examine some of the traits that make India so geographically interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Population of India<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>India is the second most populous country in the world after China, and currently has about 1,380,000,000 people. That means that more than 1 in 6 people in our world live in India ! It is predicted that India will pass China by the year 2027 in this category. <\/p><div class=\"de610b7b9de3e27210f105e73d9817c3\" data-index=\"1\" style=\"float: none; margin:0px 0 0px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<br>\r\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- m4k blog body -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0373877822875511\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7178745461\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<p>The population is distributed all around the country with greater density in the northern corridor from Delhi to Kolkata, and in the South.

(Click on the links to learn about these countries on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maps4kids.com\/\">Maps4Kids.com<\/a>). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But India has over 400 living languages, and over 2,000 dialects ! 22 of the languages are considered official languages. While Hindi is the most commonly spoken language in India, large populations within India speak other languages and even have other alphabets. Over <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_languages_by_number_of_native_speakers_in_India\">30 different languages in India<\/a> have more than 1,000,000 speakers. This is truly incredible.

Northern languages like Hindi and Bengali seem to have more of a likeness to Sanskrit writing, many having a top &#8220;line&#8221; across words and sentences. Some of the alphabets of southern languages (Kannada, Malayalam and Telugu have a much rounder look to their letters. Still others like Urdu using Perso-Arabic script which reads right to left. NOTE: Persian and Arabic also vary by 2-3 letters, and the languages are not even in the same language family). <\/p><div class=\"de610b7b9de3e27210f105e73d9817c3\" data-index=\"1\" style=\"float: none; margin:0px 0 0px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<br>\r\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- m4k blog body -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0373877822875511\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7178745461\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<p>In India, over 15% of the people are bilingual and over 7% are considered tri-lingual.

Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism (Dharmic religions) all started in India. 84% of all people in India belong to one of these four religions. The other main religion of India is Islam, which represents about 14% of the population. Christianity, Zoroastrianism, and a host of other smaller religions make up the remaining 2%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"642\" height=\"699\" src=\"https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/religions-1.png\" alt=\"Map of Religions in India\" class=\"wp-image-646\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/religions-1.png 642w, https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/religions-1-276x300.png 276w, https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/religions-1-370x403.png 370w, https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/religions-1-270x294.png 270w, https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/religions-1-570x621.png 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The map clearly shows that Hinduism dominates most of the administrative districts of India.

Not many people know that more than 1,500 years ago, the game of Chaturanga was created, likely in the Gupta Empire of northern India. The groups of pieces represent the four areas of the military &#8211; infantry, cavalry, elephantry, and chariotry. These evolved into what we now call pawns, knights, bishops and rooks. As the game developed and spread, first to Persia, players would call out &#8220;<em>Shah !<\/em>&#8221; when attacking the opposing King. Shah is the Persian word for King. They would also say &#8220;<em>Sh\u0101h M\u0101t!<\/em>&#8221; when they put the King into a position from which he could no longer escape. In English, the modern term is &#8220;Checkmate&#8221;. the German work is &#8220;Schachmat&#8221; where we can see the Indo-Aryan roots of German coming through. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/chess.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-653\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/chess.jpg 640w, https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/chess-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/chess-370x278.jpg 370w, https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/chess-270x203.jpg 270w, https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/chess-570x428.jpg 570w, https:\/\/maps4kids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/chess-80x60.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption>Indian Chess Pieces<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>People around the world now play chess with some rising to the rank of Grandmaster and World Champion. The current World Champion is <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Magnus_Carlsen\">Magnus Carlsen<\/a> of Norway, who became champion at the very young age of 20 !<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Geography of India<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>India has extremely diverse aspects of physical and human Geography. We will probably cover more of it in a future post. However, it would be good to touch on a few aspects of this fascinating country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For starters, India is a very large country. India measures 3,214 km (1,997 mi) from north to south and 2,933 km (1,822 mi) from east to west. It has  15,200 km (9,445 mi) of land border and 7,516.6 km (4,671 mi) of coastline. The Ganges river is the longest in India with a length of over 2,500 km (or 1,500 miles).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are great extremes of topography and weather throughout India. In the north, the Himalaya Mountains rise up to over 28,000 feet ! Mount Kangchenjunga, at  8,586 m (28,169 ft) , is the highest peak &#8211; only 1,000 feet shorter than Mount Everest. Temperatures in that alpine region, and in the region of Kashmir, often go below  -20C. In the south it can get very hot with many areas recording temperatures near 50C (or 120F).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are great plains and forest, and in the southwest of the country, beautiful beaches are the hallmark of the area in and around Goa.
