Why Was The Development of ANCIENT INDIA unique?So if you didn't know India is a subcontinent to Asia, but huge mountains make a barrier between the two. The mountains are the Himalayas which are the largest in Bhutan and Bangladesh. There are two very fertile valley's that are fed by the Himalaya's. How so you may ask? Well when snow melts off the mountain it goes into the Indus river, which can be used for irrigation. So awesome right! No😒. Any who, another aspect of India is that it has monsoons 🌊. SAY WHAT!?!?!?! Yes, India has monsoons which can be good.. India has a wet and dry monsoon. If you do not know what a monsoon is, it is a strong wind that blows one direction in the winter, and in the opposite direction in the summer. Now the winter monsoon brings cold dry air from the mountains. The summer monsoon of course does the opposite. It brings warm moist air from the Arabian sea., which produces drenching rains. The monsoon can be good for crops, so when it comes farmers celebrate.

And to learn the order of how everything is look at the caste system photo I added above, beside the questions of what we are talking about. Though U would like to add that there is a class that is apart from all other classes because that class is just that bad. They are called the "Untouchables". And they are exactly what their name is. People avoid them and stay away because they think that if they touch one then they will be polluted and they will become sick and die. They have to do demeaning jobs such as pick up dead pieces of body off the railroad tracks and put it together and them take a picture and then throw the body parts away. They also have o pick up dead animals. Gross I know.
