Where do most people in Nepal and Bhutan live?

Using the Greene County Library's access to Culturegrams I learned the following information about the people groups in Nepal. "Nepal is home to many ethnic groups, most of which descend from various Tibeto-Burmese groups that have migrated over millennia from the north or east into Nepal; these include the Gurung, Magar, Rai, Limbu, Thakali, and Sherpa, among others. Some other major groups, such as the Newar (in Kathmandu Valley, the middle hills, and eastern foothills) and Tharu (in the Terai), are probably of mixed origin. A substantial population of Indians and Tibetans also live in Nepal."
