India's
Northern region is a rich land which has attracted invaders
from Central Europe & Asia who left their imprint on this
land, its lifestyles over 40 centuries. The Greeks, under
Alexander the Great, travelled as far down as the lower Indus
River which they mispronounced as the "Hindu River",
Consequently, all the various invaders, with their conflicting
faiths, who inhabited the land of the Indus River were called
Hindus & their land, Hindustan. It was shortened to
"Hind", then "Ind" and finally, India.
