Hinduism traveled to East Asia through Buddhism. Later when East Asia was influenced with Buddhism, Hindu monks and preachers went there to use that base with teachings of Vedas, Upnishads and Ramayana. Ramayan was accepted easily because those islands and countries have historical connections with Lord Rama's exile period and wars

Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Myanmar (formerly Burma), Cambodia and Malaysia.

Most major rivers in Southeast Asia seem to flow in the same direction. By studying the physical geography of this region, we can tell that these rivers flow from north to south because the major mountain ranges run from north to south. The rivers formed naturally between them in valleys.

South East Asia is often defined by ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations), including 10 countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Brunei, Burma, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam.

All other asian countries you can think of will not be in South East Asia: India, Japan, Korea, Mongolia, China, Bhutan, etc...

To reach Malaysia, all you need is to cross the bridge so technically less than 1 hour. But Malaysia is huge, so travelling to the capital city of Malaysia would take about 5 hours, to northern states like Penang, about 10 hours and so on.

Indochina is the name given to a peninsula in Southeast Asia lying east of India and southwest of China. The name is most commonly used for the portion of the peninsula containing the countries Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos.

Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Maldives.

Indonesia has 280 million people, making it the most populous country in Southeast Asia and within the top five most populous countries in the world. However, Vietnam, with 90 million people is the most populous mainland country in Southeast Asia. (Indonesia is only islands, so it is not a mainland country.)

The different type of people that have high classes or low classes. For example poor people or wealthy people.

The climate in Malaysia is tropical. The north-east monsoon (October to February) deluges Borneo and the east coast in rain and often causes flooding, while the west coast (particularly Langkawi and Penang) escape unscathed. The milder south-west monsoon (April to October) reverses the pattern. The southern parts of peninsular Malaysia, including perennially soggy Kuala Lumpur, are exposed to both but even during the rainy season, the showers tend to be intense but brief.

Malaysia is close to the equator, therefore warm weather is guaranteed. Temperatures generally range from 32°C/89.6 ºF at noon to about 26°C/78.8 ºF at midnight. But like most Southeast Asian countries, Malaysia's sun-shining days are interrupted by Monsoon season from November and February every year, and night temperatures can hit a low of about 23°C/73.4 ºF on rainy days.

Temperatures tend to be cooler in the highlands, with the likes of Genting Highlands,Cameron Highlands and Fraser's Hill having temperatures ranging from about 17°C/62.6 ºF at night to about 25°C/77 ºF in the day. Mount Kinabalu is known to have temperatures falling below 10°C/50 ºF.

90% the main source of grain for breakfast will be a couple of handfuls of sticky rice a person. Fried dried meats, dried fish, and sometimes egg would be be served with it. A light/thin pork or chicken based broth is sometimes served with breakfast.

The Lao traditional cuisine is centered around rice. For farmers, they tend to stick to sticky (glutinous) rice as that keeps them full while they're working. They would typically have a salted fish or meat dish, vegetable, rice and a jaeow- which is a type of thick dipping sauce of which there are many varieties.

For Lao people living in a city like Vientiane, which is the capital. The possibilities are endless. In recent years, some very good European restaurants have opened up and its even easier to find great south east Asian food such as "nam neung" from Vietnam, "gang ped" from Thailand, wonton egg noodles.

Last year, an American style pizza place opened up and its been very popular with the locals.

Asia has been called many things over the course of history. Two of the most popular names for Asia have been the Orient, the Far East.

Many changes took place in Southeast Asia as a result of colonial control. In Southeast Asia, colonization brought mixed results. Economies grew based on cash crops or goods such as tin and rubber that could be sold on the world market. Roads, harbors, and rail systems linked areas and improved communication and transportation. These improvements were more for the benefit of European business than the local population. However, education, health, and sanitation improved! Political changes unified areas at the cost of weaker local leaders and governments. Unlike other colonial areas, millions of people from other areas of Asia and the world migrated to work on plantations and in the mines in Southeast Asia. This migration changed the cultural and racial makeup of the area. Southeast Asia became a melting pot of Hindus, Muslims, Christians, and Buddhists. The resulting cultural changes often led to racial and religious clashes that are still seen today.

India is actually in South Asia. Some of the countries in Southwest Asia are Egypt, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, Iran, Lebanon, Turkey, and Iraq.

No India is not in Indonesia, they are 2 totally different countries, about 1,000 miles apart [not counting the Andaman and Nicobar islands (which belong to India) in-between India & Indonesia]. They do however both have coasts on the Indian ocean. India is in south central Asia. Indonesia is a group of islands (the worlds largest archipelago) in extreme southeastern Asia, mostly north but also northwest of Australia. No! How could you think that?!
