What is the similarities and differences between New Zealand and India?

Let's begin with geographical similarities and differences, and progress from there. Australia and Japan are both within the Pacific Ocean. Australia is an island continent between the Indian Ocean and the South Pacific Ocean, and is part of the region known as Oceania. Japan, being much smaller, is an island chain, located between the north Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Japan, and is part of Asia. The total area of Australia is 7,686,850 sq km, while the total area included within Japan is 377,835 sq km. The terrain of Australia is mostly low plateau with deserts. In the east, the Great Dividing Range runs from north to south, and there are many fertile plains in the east and southeast, with pockets in the southwest. Japan's terrain is mostly mountainous. The highest point in Australia is Mount Kosciuszko, at 2,229 m whilst Japan's higehst point is Mount Fuji, an elevation of 3,776 m. Australia's climate is generally arid to semiarid, temperate in the south and east, and tropical in the north. As such, the northern areas can be affected frequently by Summer cyclones. Japan's climate varies from tropical in the south to cool temperate in the north. As such, its southern areas may be affected by the Asian version of cyclones - that is, typhoons. Japan is positioned along the infamous "ring of fire" and this is subject to frequent seismic and volcanic activity. Australia does not have this problem, but suffers frequent droughts and bushfires. Australia is rich in natural resources, such as bauxite, coal, iron ore, copper, tin, gold, silver, uranium, nickel, tungsten, mineral sands, lead, zinc, diamonds, natural gas and petroleum. Japan's mineral resources are virtually nil, but they have abundant fish resources. Australia is the smallest continent, but the sixth-largest country is area, with a relatively small population. July 2008 figures for Australia showed its population to be 20,600,856, with growth estimated at 0.801%. Despite its much smaller size, the population in Japan, as of July 2008, was 127,288,419, but growth was negative 0.139%. Life expectancy in both countries is similar with Australian men projected to live to 77.86 years and women to 83.75 years. Figures for Japan are - men: 78.73 years and women: 85.59 years. People in both countries enjoy good health, good hospitals and hygienic conditions. Literacy rates in both countries are high, as education systems are satisfcatory for the majority of the population. 99% of Australian and Japanese men and women over the age of 15 can read and write. == == == == Australia's government is a federal parliamentary democracy, whilst Japan's is a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary government. Australia has 6 states and 2 territories, while Japan has 47 prefectures. Japan's history goes back further than Australia's, as the country received it independence in 660 B.C., after being founded by Emperor Jimmu. Apart from the Aborigines who lived in Australia for thousands of years before white man came, Australia was settled by the British, and achieved its independence on 9 July 1900, effective 1 January 1901. These are just a few of many similarities and differences. For easy comparisons, go to the CIA - World Factbook site for more information on both countries.

How did the Chandragupta Maurya maintain order in India?

When the situation in Alexander's former kingdom had stabilized, one of his successors, Seleucus, tried to reconquer the eastern territories, but the war was inconclusive, and the Macedonian offered a peace treaty to Chandragupta.

Which problems will face India in next 10 years?

India can and may face several problem in the next 10 years...

Though every year is crucial to the development of India...I think the next ten are VERY important since they may decide the future of India.

Here are some problems that popped up into my mind:

1) Increasing poverty- Nothing is being done to stop poverty...

2) Rapidly growing population- This is dangerous...since the states might

overpopulate and therefore, increase the risk of illnesses and other problems

3) Lack of education- This is harmful since young poor girls make bad mistake everyday in India, getting pregnant without realizing risks. < this is an example>

4) Pollution- Not much is being done to make India a more environmentally friendly country or to decrease the pollution.

5) Corruption- There is much corruption in India; incentives and bribes for teachers, examiners, police officers, bankers and what not. This increases the risk for crime.

6) Weak Police Force- This could encourage criminals to do worse since the police is weak and does not do it's best.

There are several problems that one can think of that could affect India in the next 10 years...but the six listed above were the main ones I could think of. India's problems are not so major yet..but it has to work VERY hard to get a good and stable level. For this, India has to cut down on poverty, increase education, job chances, cut down pollution and just work together...

I hope this helped!

Information about the life of people living in the Thar Desert of India?

The people of Thar Desert are simple and brave. The main occupation of the people in desert is agriculture and animal husbandry. In past years there has been a tremendous increase in human population as well as animal population. This has led to improper control of grazing and extensive cultivation resulting into the deterioration of vegetation resources. The increase of human and livestock population in the desert has lead to deterioration in the ecosystem resulting in degradation of soil fertility. The living standard of the people in the desert is low.

Jodhpur, the largest city in the region, lies in the scrub forest zone. Bikaner and Jaisalmer are located in the desert proper.

A large irrigation and power project has reclaimed areas of the northern and western desert for agriculture. The small population is mostly pastoral, and hide and wool industries are prominent.

The Indian Desert is mainly inhabited by Hindus, with Muslim and Sikh minorities. The portion in Pakistan is inhabited by primarily by Sindhis and Kolhis. There are around 60% Muslims and 40% Hindus in the Pakistani part of the Thar Desert. A colorful culture rich in tradition prevails in the desert. The people have a great passion for music and poetry.
