I retired at 60, and set off to see as much of the world as I could afford. I made three visits to India, and absolutely adore it. I'm too old now, but I so wish I had seen more.
well your ancestors definitely saw most of the country
I'd go to the mountains or northern India
@@dogbones8976Prize for the most gangsta response, gotta say.
I’d say you did pretty well mate!

India is a geologist’s and a mapmaker’s dream.
Nope, in old times, India was invaded. How could it be yours dream lol [ Your dream map will be invaded ]
@@satyasankalpapanigrahi9416
You are a good example of mouth before brain. He said a geologist and map maker's dream. He is referring to the physical geography of India ranging from the tallest mountains to wetlands to deserts to jungles to coasts and islands. Nothing to do with invasion.
@@xijinpig8982 oh sorry, but my view is distracted, I remain focused on politics view.
@@satyasankalpapanigrahi9416 do you think this video is political. He literally made a disclaimer for that.
@@sreejatosutar4482 I already said that I had distracted, bcz even with disclaimer. My view point is always on political terms rather than anything else I will consider.
As a French Indian lover, thank you for this short presentation.
France is older as acounteh than india. India formed in 1947. Most of India was forcecefully occupied by genocide like on Nagaland. Dont be fan of such countries with twisted and highly dramatic people.
Who asked if you are french
@@GrandTerr Nobody ! Generally, I introduce myself as a human beeing, first, then French.
@@porcheriecosmique5865 Yeah
All types of landscapes found in India
Cold Desert, Hot desert, Beaches, Plain, plateau, Taiga, Tundra, Wetland, Mountain, Mountain range, Coast, Littoral zone, Glacier, snow, Shrubland, Forest, Rainforest, Woodland, Jungle, Moors, Steppe, Valley, Islands, Volcano 🌋 also in Andaman and Nicobar Islands of India.
It is also land of spirituality, peace. And last but not the least it has unity in diversity. 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
I am 19 and I as Indian went to every State of India but still every city to city and village to village are different region, wonderful cultures and Architecture you will get to see, Even in Languages and food also.
You have to spent many years to explore whole India.
USA 🇺🇸 and China 🇨🇳 also holds the same diverse.
@@satyasankalpapanigrahi9416
Yes but India is as diverse in a smaller piece of land
China has cold desert only bcz of illegal occupation in Tibet@@satyasankalpapanigrahi9416
@@xijinpig8982 that's factual.
But what about Mexico, France, Chile, Peru & Argentina. They are also smaller than india and they also have same diverse like India
@@satyasankalpapanigrahi9416 nah salt desert is not there
One more facts about India's geography, India has world's smallest and largest river islands in the state of Assam. Brahmaputra river is home to both smallest(Umananda Island) and largest(Majuli Island) islands in the world.
@@kingjohnshaw You think they can store that much water? Their whole country will be underwater. Btw it doesn't come from china they are from Tibet which is illegally occupied by China
@@kingjohnshaw Brahmaputra in China holds less than 20% water moron. The rest is in India and the water originates in India. Go take care of illegal immigrants in your country.
@@kingjohnshaw the most of the rivers that flows through India comes from Himalayas whom we give respect( We consider Himalayas a father of goddess parvati ) we don't wanna pray to nepal and china just becuase they have mighty mountains. we can give and take respect if it is done by both side.
IN
@@kingjohnshaw China don't own Himalayas, neither Nepal. It's distributed among multiple countries. So calling India a little country is reflecting your common sense.
@@kingjohnshaw i dont know if people understand it or not but Indian state just needs to point at a direction and the hordes from India will decimate everything in that direction for 1000 km.
Pray to your lord, that day never comes!
Geography of india in short
"India is everything"
I’m a geologist in College right now and I love using your videos to find real world examples for the terms we are learning. Thank you!
Thanks for the geographical survey. Enjoyed the quick -- but quite thorough -- trip around the country. Salute to you and all India from a retired U.S. Navy chief petty officer in the Pacific Northwest of the U.S. 😊
We salute you sir as well for your service.
Appreciate the fact that you explicitly mentioned about the border disputes and made it clear for using such map of India. Made sure that nobody's sentiments are hurt.
Respect from indian Geology Department
See the Kashmir part they didn’t consider it as a part of India
@@EnergyEngines he clarified he is showing disputed areas according to whose control it is under.
@@hhhhngg hmm
As our vedas describes India:- The country that lies north of the ocean and south of the snowy mountains is called Bharatam; there dwell the descendants of Bharata. My motherland, My beautiful home, My Karmbhoomi. Nothing can ever be beautiful than you.
Yea but there are people other than descendants of Bharata & Vedic is not the only culture that's here. It's a very diverse country. Not a homogeneous Vedic society.
Yes, There are so Many culture Vedic and non Vedic but the Vedas are the earliest to describe the extent of bharat, giving a sense of unique socio-religious demographics different from cultures around it. This binds vast majority of cultures in this subcontinent with Hinduism or its cultural continuum. @@aashish9141
@@aashish9141
He's not talking about it in terms of Ancient Vedic Culture. What he means is by blood and as modern Indians, we are one people. Everyone in the subcontinent is more closely related to each other than to those outside the subcontinent. Heck, a Kashmiri is genetically closer to a Tamil or an Assamese (refer Human Genome Diversity Project, HGDP) than they are to a Pashtun right next door. People in the subcontinent have been moving around and mixing with each other and the mountains to the north and west act as natural barriers to limit outside influence in the mixing.
To end, that sentence in the Vedas is a geographical description, not religious. It goes;
"Uttaram yat samudrasya, Himadreschaiva dakshinam, varsham tad Bharatam nama Bharati yatra santatih"
Meaning exactly what he said, North of the ocean and south of the snowy mountains, there lies a country called Bharatam whose people are called Bharatis.
@@xijinpig8982 The geographic region mentioned here is the version of Vedic culture. Not every culture present here has the same world view.
Nobody is talking about genetics here. People everywhere is going to have something common with the ones next to them. We have inter-mixed a lot and have stopped doing that due to solidification due to caste structure.
So yea, again. A lot of regions that are part of Indian Union have their own district history & culture. Vedic culture is just one of many.
@@xijinpig8982😂 stop nonsense. People never moved in India much before 1947. Kerala people do not look like odisa nepali haryana bihar punjab etc. Kerala Arabs jews etc mixed
It's like separate earth, every type of environment is present. God has created this country
Azathoth?
There is no God, nature is supreme
To get dominated why a small population of Europeans lol?
@@tylerwardle2475
???
What does that have to do with his comment or this video? Every people group on Earth has been dominated by another.
Then god filled it with dirty people
thank you for making that disclaimer not everyone respects the borders and everyone has a bias and as an Indian I do too and Kashmir has always been a part of india and due to our history with Pakistan it has always been an integral issue but the right hand side of Kashmir the Aksai Chin rigiions has been controlled by the Chinese military under the CCP and the occupation of Aksai Chin is straight up illegal and violates multiple treaties signed by the Chinese regime in the late 60's till the 70's but I appreciate you making it clear that this part of the region has significant geopolitical implications
Aksai chin is actually chinese territory, just check the Qing China Empire.
But if india wants to claim something, then Pakistan is actually West India 🇮🇳
Aksai chin and Aksai Hind [ There are differences ]

I am very grateful for this presentation. India has always represented for me the most tolerant, welcoming, geologically panoramic and demographically exuberant societies in the world. Its democracy has not remained as independent under the current leadership, but I hope things will return to full tolerance of religion and freedom of expression.
We need India as a balance to five other titans-Russia, America, China, Brazil and Indonesia. Of these six enormous powers, India is probably the least selfish, and most naturally intellectually gifted. I happily say that as a American.
If it's birth rate could stabilize at 2.1, and environmental endowment be protected, India will become the global model for a pluralistic, prosperous and peace-loving future!
We very well know what Americans news media write about us. No need to lecture us on democracy when you have just arrested Trump who is the face of president from main opposition. Have you got any shame teaching us about freedom of speech and expressions, you see what your news media feed you and just because don't a damn about your interest your media feeds you bullshit.
Dont buy into Western media myth, this is infact the most democratic India has ever been. Muslims on the ground will tell you that they are having the best economic time of their lives but leftists will make you believe otherwise.
For that Islam should be eradicated one way or the other
To be honest, democracy, human rights, intolerance and hate crimes against Non Christians, African Americans, Asians, Hispanic, Caribbeans, Indians and propaganda media in USA under Joe Biden Government and previously under Bush and Obama Governments were at its peak. USA shouldn't teach democracy to World Biggest Democracy-India.
As i know you watch international news but these international new very much bias against india and india independent democracy it true it has religious issue even before have congress or bjp even other political parties do religious politics for there political and vote gaim as religious very much less and opposition have medicore and weak leader and about Only two state like up and bihar need that not every state because sikkim like facing decrease population like japan
10:20 Very happy you covered the islands as well as I was beginning to worry that you were only focussing on the mainland!
Correction - The Thar desert is not just one arid and dry region in india. There are 2 others. Spiti Valley in Himachal Pradesh and Ladakh. These are both high altitude cold deserts ,geographically like the Tibetan plateau.
This video, combined with that background music, brought me back to my great memories from the time i spent in India some years ago :) oh the nostalgia. Magical country. Thank you
Top tier content here. Instant subscribe, keep’em coming
Excellent video! Loved the details and how things were explained!
That was fascinating and informative and just the right length. The islands sound quite fascinating. Love to visit one day.
A lovely simple way to show rich diverse Indian geography. Very well done indeed. Thank you. It is truly amazing that freshwater rivers like Godavari, Krishna and Cauvery were extolled as sacred, to be immensely revered, 100s and 100s of decades ago, much before invaders, 'conquerors' and annexing this land to an 'Empire' reached the Indian peninsula.
GREAT INFORMATION AND GOOD VIDEO...SINCE LAST THREE YEARS I AM TRAVELLING IN INDIA BY ROAD WITH WIFE...I HAVE TRAVELLEDLED VERTICAL HORIZONTAL ,COASTAL INDIA AND IN MANY STATES OF INDIA...GREAT TO KNOW FROM YOU..PRAVIN SHRISNDER - INDIA
So... Nicely explained India ❤❤
Thanks for that beautiful and informative video 😊😊😊
India is better for explained in atupid Bollywood movies from the 90s. If gou want to feel good - then hust accept that India was formed in 1947. Before that it was England. Before thay many independent nations .
I have come across your channel today by chance and I find it very informative. Looking forward for more and more interesting vedios.
In short, India is a video game map.
Planes, mountain, rainforest, dessert, tropical island, and multiple rivers.
hard mode ! Only pro's survivers live here ! 😂
Great compilation
👏👏 Great Video capturing the vast geography of my country.
As you did India, it was quite interestin. Now please do its neighboring countries Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and Srilanka too. This will complete the geography of the whole Indian subcontinent.
And Sri Lanka has really interesting geography
Bap bap hota hai😂😂deta beta hota hai😂
It would be explainable using this same video. Pakistan really is the western portion of the Indian Subcontinent, with the same Thar Desert, Indo-Gangetic Plains and Himalayas and even the coastal plains to the south.
Coastal Sindh = Coastal Gujarat
Punjab (Pak) = Punjab+Haryana (Ind)
Ajk, Eastern KPK like Swat and Dir= J&K, Himachal, Uttarakhand
Gilgit, Astore, Baltistan, Chitral = Ladakh, Kargil, Lahaul & Spiti
Thar in Sindh and Punjab = Thar in Rajasthan
The only difference is Pakistan has an extra mountain range to the west (the Suleiman and the Hindu Kush), whose function is the same as the Arakan in Northeast India, which separates the far west and far east of the subcontinent from the Middle East and South East Asia respectively.
The only one I would say has a bit of its own geography is Sri Lanka. Bangladesh is just part of the Gangetic Plains and Nepal part of the Himalayas that feed the Ganga.
Thank you so much for your sharing Indian Geography It inspire to all after retirement
05:15 ff ... I was born and brought up in ML-05 Weiloi Mawsynram Constituency, Shillong City. The heaviest RAIN, clouds, fog are 😪😭 super disturbing. during winter, the thick ice is a nuisance. what a suffering but No other choice.
What a great video! Thanks for this.
Its actually just mediocre.
Hats off to you sir...using the correct terms while showing our border... appreciate your knowledge 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Very nicely made video.. excellent work
Wonderful! The graphics are great and so is the content.
Honestly, that was a great introductory video to the geography of India - the best I've seen. I will definitely watch more of your videos and recommend them to others.
Agreed. What UA-cam is made for.
Very informative and almost exhaustive description of India in short time span.
A very well made video!
cheers!🍻
India is a world of its own 🇮🇳
Very well researched video. Kudos. 👏
As a Indian I love how you put the disclaimer about the maps before starting the videos because even though it's a very sensative topic some Western youtuber have the audacity to talk about it like they know everything about the situations when in reality they don't know horse shìt about it
Amazing video!
Great stuff
dayumm man thats so informatic. thanks a lot brother love from Nepal or Nepol as you guys say.
Much high praise for the disclaimer
Lovely video. India is so amazing. You could possibly make a video of each states geography, fauna and flora.
Beautifully explained
Enjoyed. Thanks.
India suffered thousand of years of destruction and division by Muslim and British compare to China suffered only century of humiliation. Still India itself is the world complete with diverse cultures and geography. Visiting India could be life altering experience.
I knew nothing of this. Wow, what a country, thank you for educating me!
Excellent, thank you.
Great content and well explained
I would love to visit. Looks and sounds incredible
Terrific. Thank you.
Wonderfull video ❤.
There are actually 6 geographical features of India. 5 of them are covered in this video (Himalayas, northern plains, Deccan plateau, the desert and islands). The 6th feature is the costal plains.
Right, I tried to cover the coastal plains in the Deccan section
Awesome video. India is so big and diverse that it's hard to cover it in a single 12min video. But this is a good introduction I guess?
IT IS NOT BIG ANYMORE: RUSSIA+CANADA+USA+CHINA+AUSTRALIA ALL ARE MUCH MUCH BIGGER THAN INDIA. INDIA CLOSE TO BRAZIL.
@@kingjohnshaw
Huh?
Lovely , Reliable & peaceful South India.
F**k regionalism. Bharatam is supreme. India is greater than the sum of its parts.
There's only one India.
snow desert and mountains north is fantastic😍
wow , very beautifully made . ❤
Wow beautiful place
Yes it is, come and 🙈
what a video ... bravo 👏👏
Good to see the disclaimer about disputed territories
Nice explaination otherside himalayas
Gondwana, Himalaya, Nilgiri hills, Eastern Ghats, Western Ghats, Deccan plateau, Narmada river, Ganga river, Alaknanda River, Yamuna River etc are all beautiful and holy names. I like them. And there are many more.
Awesome video
Bro you did a incredible job according to me really helpful
Nice presentation sir
Great Video 👍
nice analysis
Wow beautiful place 🎉🎉🎉
India has something for everybody!!
Incredible India
Learned a lot.
Ur pronunciation of Indian States were very Stellar mate 😊
Western ghats are blessing in Monsoon, keeping the rains out of the deccan region. Mumbai region exceeds 2,500-3000mm annual while deccan cities like pune Bangalore satara just 500-800mm.
Good
So this was fun, albeit a bit short. I don't know anything about india but you seem to have omitted a big area between the flood plains and the Deccan plateau.
We need more videos on INDIA🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳 भारत
Despite humorous innocent mispronunciations, this is a well made video. Keep it up.
I could definitely stand to learn more about India culturally, historically, geographically, etc. Thank you for helping educate me a bit regarding India today!
God be with you out there, everybody. ✝️ :)
will you do geography of Indonesia?
🎉 NC Sir
Needed this video about the Indian SC
Beautiful india land of my forefathers gonna visit soon ❤❤
Nice and short description. But missed many areas like Rann of Kutch, the salt marsh land [Gujrat] and Sunderban delta [West Bengal] and Backwaters of Kerala [ the paddy fields that lies beneath sea level]. 🙏
Better than geography now video. 😊
Surprised not to mension about river cauvery which makes rice bowl of South India specialy state of tamilnadu and grand dam in kallanai constructed 2500 years back.
Superrrr!
This channel is underrated
Do Sri Lanka plz 🙏🙏🙏
A tour through India will show you everything that the planet has to offer. The geography of India includes like a small sample of everything.
India has a good geography
where do you get this kind of maps?
9:57 Goa isn't a city
Recently Modi went to Lakshadweep and people started to go to Lakshadweep more
You seriously had brain damage
Not started yet. You need to get permission.
You forgot the Sunderban delta and floating islands. Would be nice if you could include the North East as well..
I think he skipped it because they lie in Bangladesh
@@thedirtmaster4568
Part of it is also in Bengal, and the floating islands are in Manipur.
Большое спасибо за ваш труд
👌
India should have a permanent seat in UN Security council. European Union should replace Uk and France.
Why?
@@TheBakuganmaster99why not ?
Yes UN has seen this comment and decided to take the historical step. They have finally been convinced by this one comment! 👏
Uk isn't even in Europe union what the fuck are you talking about 😂
@@Badson543 the UK is irrelevant , European Union would represent most of Europe. the EU has more influence than the UK by itself.
very nice to put disclaimer about map.. otherwise it would have been full of comments " use correct map".
Nice video but i guess you shouldve included. Trans Himalayas (Cold dessert) and Rann of kutch (salt plains)
I wish all Indians knew how diverse our country is. People often hailing from the North East region are discriminated by the mainlanders making them feel like outsiders.
Truee
What is the music in the background? :-)
