Indians, hailing from the SouthAsian subcontinent, are known for their diverse and vibrant culture that spans thousands of years. This region, comprising India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and neighboring countries, is a melting pot of languages, religions, and traditions. Indian society is rich with colorful festivals like Diwali and Holi, spicy and flavorful cuisine, and a history that’s as layered as their famous biryani.
