      Yes, peaceful neighbor that ethnic cleansed its own people during 1990s. Bhutan's population does not even exceed 800,000 currently. This is the country that created 100,000 refugees in 1990s. Since it is a small country, world has overlooked its ethnic cleansing act, sadly.

      Too bad they are "isolated" because they stripped more than 100,000 minorities of citizenship (who had been citizens for decades), then deported them, effectively making them stateless and screwed refugees.

      "It's not that developed" -- What do you consider development? I consider Bhutan as the most developed. It's the mental development and human development that matters rest is all changing. Glitzy Buildings won't last a few decades but the virtues last thousands of years. What you have there is a wonderful culture that teaches co-existence with Nature and all other species. That's what i call development. Country having Happiness Index of its citizen as its fundamental, is what deserves the right to call itself as civilized and developed. Everything else does not matter. Be proud for being a citizen of the Most Developed Country in the World!! I bow down to your Culture, Leaders, and People for understanding the very aspect of existence and life. Thank you Bhutan !! I wish India has such neighbors all around.

I was teaching and coaching basketball in a school in India, in the Himalayas. We were guests of the king and played 3 exhibition matches against the king and his bodyguards. He was very fond of basketball. I fell in love with the country and its people and have since visited 3 more times.

      @@Alexandra.Symone In the annals of Bhutan's history, a challenging chapter stands out - a period when the kingdom found itself compelled to implement drastic measures to protect its sovereignty. This phase unfolded against the backdrop of political unrest caused by the presence of Nepali refugees seeking their own separate land. To safeguard its nation, Bhutan reluctantly resorted to implementing a "one nation, one people" policy, which eventually led to a series of unfortunate events, culminating in the Nepali refugees being asked to leave the country.
      Bhutan, known for its unique cultural identity and commitment to preserving its traditional values, had long embraced an open-door policy, welcoming Nepali refugees fleeing political instability in neighboring Nepal. Initially, these refugees were granted asylum and allowed to reside in Bhutan, creating a harmonious coexistence. However, over time, tensions arose as some Nepali refugees began demanding a separate territory, defying Bhutan's principle of a united nation.
      Recognizing that the demands for a separate land threatened Bhutan's very foundation, the government reluctantly took a decisive step to implement a policy aimed at ensuring unity and national integrity. The "one nation, one people" policy was introduced with the intention of upholding Bhutanese sovereignty and preserving its unique cultural heritage. Regrettably, a portion of the Nepali refugee population refused to comply with this policy, leading to protests and escalating tensions.
      Bhutan's leadership, confronted with a grave dilemma, faced the agonizing choice of either compromising its sovereignty or taking measures to maintain its cultural integrity and national unity. The decision to ask those who opposed the policy to leave the country was undoubtedly a difficult one, as it resulted in a humanitarian crisis. The departure of the Nepali refugees marked a painful chapter in Bhutan's history, impacting both the lives of those who had sought refuge and the Bhutanese people who had once welcomed them.
      During these tumultuous times, it is important to acknowledge that the world was facing numerous conflicts and territorial disputes. Many countries found themselves grappling with similar challenges as they strived to protect their own national interests amidst global turmoil. The Bhutanese crisis unfolded against a backdrop of shifting international alliances, armed conflicts, and the unsettling specter of countries invading others. These external factors undoubtedly exerted additional pressure on Bhutan, further complicating an already challenging situation.
      While the events surrounding Bhutan's decision may evoke a sense of unease and raise questions about the means employed, it is essential to view this chapter in its historical context. The Bhutanese people and their leaders were confronted with an arduous task of safeguarding their nation's sovereignty while grappling with internal divisions and external uncertainties.
      In the present day, Bhutan continues to evolve, focusing on reconciliation and building a harmonious society. Lessons learned from the past inform the nation's commitment to inclusive policies, respect for human rights, and a multicultural ethos that embraces diversity. The memory of the crisis serves as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance nations often face when preserving their sovereignty in an ever-changing world.

    I believe more in nature, evolution and our universe, but when I first came in contact with Buddhism I was really fascinated and I still practice some meditations that I have learned in a Buddhist monastery to relax my mind. The people of Bhutan and also much of Nepal and Tibet are an excellent example for the future, AWAY from the extreme materialism and selfishness (egoism) of our modern western society, they are perfectly integrated into the bio-systems of our planet and PEACEFUL with an eternity of smiles on their faces, absolutely exemplary!

    I grew up 3hours from Bhutan. I've been there multiple times. It's beautiful but has nothing going on.

      Perhaps not much things happening in the border areas or the south where you have lived in? but the central and northern parts which includes the capital and is home to many social, outdoor activities.

    Lovely documentary, kept factual and objective throughout.
    Thoughts on potable water distribution and sewage disposal crossed my mind.
    How these bridges are built amazes me.

    Since Buddhism started in India, Bhutan must have had very early on relationship & connectivity to India but eventually disconnected themselves from the world... Fascinating to see how they preserved their Buddhist culture... Must be the real raw form of Buddhism as Buddha taught i'd imagine!

      Buddhism enter bhutan last in most of east asia and came from tibetan buddhism(which is a new school of buddhism mixed with native Bon religion). It is actually very far from the buddhism of the first buddha. The closest version is extinct and was in Afghsnistan and was killed off during the islamic invasion of the area in the 9th-11century ad. The closest now is probably in Sri Lanka..
      fun fact: the reason buddhsim enter tibet n bhutan last amonst asian nations even though it is the closest east asian/south east asian nation to India is because of the massive mountain ranges that separate it from india making travel very hard despite being literally next door.
