India’s population of 1.3 billion closely rivals China, and is the second most populated country in the world. However, India’s geographical size is only 1/3 the size of the USA; as a result, most of India is densely populated.
With such a large population, India is rich in culture and diversity. Over 1,600 tribal languages are spoken across the country. While farming is one of the largest industries, India is also known for its contributions to computer science, medicine, music, and film.
