SOMETHING ABOUT INDIA

The state name of India is "Republic of India". In Urdu we say it "Jamhuria Hindustan". Republic means according to English dictionary "A country that is governed by a president and politicians elected by the people and where there is no king or queen." The old name of India was "Aria Wart". In Urdu not but in Hindi language it is said "Bharat" by name of a Hindu Raja "Bharat Singh". India is the second largest country of South Asia. Here I have an object on the word "South" in 'South Asia" because in my opinion the whole world is known nowadays as a "Global World".
