In South Asia we see how climate and location can affect our lives. We learn about India and how Hinduism affects every aspect of life in South Asia. We also look at India's economic and social challenges, like poverty. From there we discover the Highland climate zone of Nepal, Buthan and its Buddhism and take a quick look at the Muslim nations in South Asia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and the Maldives.Topics include: South Asia MountainsSouth Asia RiversIndiaHumid Subtropical ClimateMonsoonsHinduismReincarnation & KarmaThe Caste SystemSadhu'sPerfoming PujaHindu FestivalsIndia's EconomyPovertyBegging in IndiaRailways in IndiaNepalHighland Climate ZonesTemperate & Subtropical Climate ZonesButhanTsechuBuddhismSri LankaPakistan & BangladeshMaldives
