Home to the Indus Valley
Civilization and a region of
historic trade routes and
vast empires, the Indian
subcontinent was identified
with its commercial and
cultural wealth for much of
its long history. Four major
world religions, Hinduism,
Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism
originated there, while
Zoroastrianism, Judaism,
Christianity and Islam
arrived in the first millennium
CE and shaped the region's
diverse culture.
India got its independence
on August 15th, 1947. It was
the day when the Indians
got liberated from the rule
of the British.
Agriculture is not only the
dominant occupations of the
