What is the difference between ancient India and the ancient indus valley civilizations?
Well they lived in different time periods they had a different way of doing things and building things.
Which best describes origins of Hinduism?
Hinduism was a blend of Aryan traditions and the culture of the cities of Mohenjo-daro and Harappa of the Indus Valley civilizations. The Indus Valley civilizations were already in decline when the Aryans arrived in northern India; however, they were still more advanced than the culture of the Aryans. The Aryans adopted many cultural characteristics of the people they conquered. Archaeological diggings at Mohenjo-daro and Harappa show that religious beliefs were among the Indus Valley cultural characteristics that found their way into Aryan culture.
What group of nomads found their way into the Indus Valley and helped create Hinduism?
according to historians aryans first settled in indus valley and founded Hinduism. aryans had Brahmanism as their religion before moving to indus valley, which evolved into Hinduism as time passed.

How is Hinduism similar to Mesopotamia?
not to much is known, but it could have made up some of the population, mostly, it was made up of polythiesm (i think it is spelled that way), the indus valley statues show that it could have had hinduism, but the Indus valley's religion is a mystery.
What was the most common way early river valley civilizations expanded?
blending of cultures is not the answer it is political means
Who are Aryans and how did their way of life differ from the Indus valley civilization?
Aryans is the collective name for several people groups living in northern India and present-day Iran around 1500 BC. The way of life of the various Aryan tribes differed, and some lived largely in the same way as the Indus Valley people. Which is not surprising as some Indo-Aryans actually were Indus Valley people.But by and large you could say that the Indus Valley people were settlers, farmers and artisans. Many of the Aryan peoples were semi-nomadic herdsmen.One trait to be found among nomadic tribes through the ages is that they are very territorial when it comes to what they consider as 'their' grazing grounds and they tend to easily start quarrels and fights with their neighboring tribes about them. So the Aryans were considered as much more 'warlike' than the Indus Valley people.

Has India hijacked Pakistan's Heritage?
Although both modern countries of the Republic of India and Pakistan were created at the same time out of British Raj, the so-called Indians desperately tries to steal Pakistan's heritage, particularly the Indus Valley Civilization! This Indian hegemonic agenda is based on myths and false propaganda for religious and nationalistic imperialism. Also, there are some ignorant Pakistanis, particularly Islamists, who narrow-mindedly deny/ignore Pakistan's glorious pre-Islamic past. Harappans were certainly the ancestors of most Pakistanis, who absorbed or adopted the many waves of invaders/migrants through out the centuries. Indus Valley Civilization was mostly based in the region of Pakistan. The names used for the Civilization are "Indus Valley" or "Harappan", both are in Pakistan. The most largest and important cities are Harappa and Mohenjodaro, both in Pakistan. Even in the case of Hakra/Ghaggar river (extinct), a tributary of Indus itself, it has far more mature Harappan sites on the Pakistani side than on the Indian side. The proto-Indus site is also located at Mehrgarh in Pakistan. Indus Valley Civilization, at its peak, had colonies stretching from Turkmenistan to northern Maharashta, and from southeast Iran to western Uttar Pradesh. About 85% of Indians (i.e. outside of northwest India) have nothing to do with Indus Valley Civilization, where their ancestors were nomadic forest-dwelling hunters and gatherers at a time period when the sophisticated Indus Valley Civilization was flourishing. Indus/Harappan religion was not Hinduism. Not a single Hindu temple, idol, or statue has been found at excavated Indus sites. Harappans buried their dead, ate beef, and were not Vedic. The "Great Bath" was common in many civilizations such as among the Graeco-Romansand Mesopotamians. Depicted on some Indus seals, the "deity" wearing the horned head-dress looks nothing like Hinduism's Shiva, and similar deities were common in other civilizations like the Celtic "Cernunnos". Bull seemed to be sacred among Harappans similar to Mesopotamians and Minoans, but not the cow. A people may evolve by adopting new ideas/beliefs, change with political environment, and racially get mixed with other peoples, but that does not erase their history. Pakistan, the land and people of Indus directly inherits one of the greatest ancient civilizations of the known ancient world, just the same way present-day Iraq, Greece, and Egypt (all three countries and names also recent in origin) inherits their own great ancient civilizations. It is irrelevant that the descendents of Harappans are now mostly Muslims (Pakistanis). Descendents of ancient Mesopotamians and Egyptians are also now mostly Muslims, descendants of ancients Greeks and Romans are now mostly Christians. It is abut time that all educated Pakistanis take pride in their past, and protect it from thievery of other countries like India.
Describe the development of India?
India began developing thousands of years ago. Things began in the Indus River Valley because it was fertile and also a good way to travel to other areas.
