Country of
Asia, lying along the southern slopes of the Himalayan mountain ranges. It is a landlocked country located between
India to the east, south, and west and the Tibet Autonomous Region of China to the north. Its territory extends roughly 500 miles (800 kilometres) from east to west and 90 to 150 miles from north to south. The capital is
Kāthmāndu.
Nepal, long under the rule of hereditary prime ministers favouring a policy of isolation, remained closed to the outside world until a palace revolt in 1950 restored the crown's authority in 1951; the country gained admission to the United Nations in 1955. In 1991 the kingdom established a multiparty parliamentary system In 2006, however, a decade-long
People's Revolution by the
Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) along with several weeks of mass protests by all major political parties of Nepal culminated in a peace accord, and the ensuing elections for the
constituent assembly voted overwhelmingly in favor of the abdication of the last Nepali monarch
Gyanendra Shah and the establishment of a
federaldemocratic republic in May 28, 2008. The first
President of Nepal,
Ram Baran Yadav, was sworn in on 23 July 2008.
Wedged between two giants,
India and
China,
Nepal seeks to keep a balance between the two countries in its foreign policy—and thus to remain independent. A factor that contributes immensely to the geopolitical importance of the country is the fact that a strong
Nepal can deny
China access to the rich Gangetic Plain;
Nepal thus marks the southern boundary of the Chinese sphere north of the Himalayas in
Asia.
Nepal though poor in economic condition is very rich in cultural diversity and natural resources.
Nepal have overwhelming natural resources which makes
Nepal natural paradise of the world and the most beautiful place of the nature.
Nepal is celebrating
Nepal tourism year in 2011 and hence I as a nepali love to welcome all to
Nepal and support the tourism and enjoy natural beauty of
Nepal.
