Why is India known as a subcontinent? |
|
Answer» India is a country with a vast geographical area. Various diversities are found here, among which, geographical, climatic, social, cultural, political, environmental, religious and statistical diversities are the major ones. At some places there are mountains, while there are plateaus at other places, there are desert regions at some places whereas there are plains at other places, sea coasts are there at some places and islands are there at others, somewhere there are industries while elsewhere there is farming, at some places, the density of population is more, while at some other places, the density is less. Along with this, diversities associated with temperature, rainfall, air pressure and velocity of winds are also found. Due to these excessive diversities, India is known as a subcontinent. |
