=DIARY ENTRY 4=

I'm sad to say that this is my second last day in India! I love it here so much and I have learnt so much just by being here and immersing myself in the people and their culture. Today I was informed that India only taked up 2.4% of the worlds total area, this completely amazed me when I remembered that there are over 1.1 billion people living here! India comes in second to the United States of America in terms of the total arable land available. Nevertheless, it is the second most populous nation on Earth (which is not surprising seeing the amount of people here!), and if current trends persist, India will replace China as the most populous nation in less than 40 years! Almost 40% of Indians are younger than 15 years of age. More than 70% of the people live in more than 550,000 villages, and the remainder in more than 2000 towns and cities. I find all of this so fascinating and intriguing, I think I will definitely be coming back here for another visit! =]

This is a chart i found that demonstrates the evolution of population in India. Until tomorrow...
