an autonomous region
Lhasa is the capital city of Tibet before 1959. It was the administrative center of Tibet and Gaden Podrang was the name of the government. After Chinese invasion, Tibetan plateau divided into four provinces out of Tibet autonomous region; they are Qinghai, Gansu, Sichuan and Yunnan provinces. These provinces are culturally much rich for Tibetan nomads as well.
Yes. In reality, the current Chinese government suppresses a bunch of evidence that Tibet used to be an empire. It was an Empire for more than 10 centuries until the 1950's or 1900's (no one is sure because China says it always ruled Tibet, then said 1900, but Tibet says 1950's) when the Chinese forces conquered Tibet even though Tibet signed a treaty once with Mongolia stating it was its own country before. Found all of this from Wikipedia, a lot of other documents around the web supports Tibet to used to be a country. The sad part is, my Dad is Chinese, and even he thinks that Tibet was never a country and thought Chinese ruled it all the time. Must've been the government that taught him that, because he was born in China. China sometimes goes overboard with lies and such, and I'm saying this even though I Chinese!!!!!
The country of Tibet has an autonomous government that reports to China. Tibet is thought to be a part of China but Tibetans say Tibet is an independent country.
China, for now. But Tibetans are fighting everyday to free Tibet from China's invasion
2-300 thousand.
Tibet surrendered but had an agreement to keep its regional self-government, have free religious beliefs, and no immediate change in the government.
Tibet was assumed into China following the invasion of Tibet by the Chinese Peoples Liberation Army. As such, it is governed under the Chinese communist system. Tibet's former government, lead by the Deli Lama, still operates in exile in northern India.
The Dalai Lama resided in Tibet before exiling to India in 1959 due to Chinese invasion of Tibet.
Due to the Chinese invasion of Tibet the Dalai Lama lives in Dharamsala india

Don't know. Sorry :/

The Chinese believed that Tibet was always part of the motherland.
The Chinese name for Tibet is 西藏. Its pronounciation is Xi-Zang.
After the Chinese government took over Tibet in 1950, the former country of Tibet became a part of China. Many people feel that Tibet is still its own country and work to bring freedom back to to the Tibetan people.
Many Tibetans have been living in India after they fled from Tibet after the Chinese brutal invasion of Tibet in 1950's. Tibetans living in India are considered "foreigners" and do not hold any citizenship of India. They are stateless people and do not have the right to own property, hold government jobs or move freely within India.
The currency used in Tibet is Chinese Yuan.
