    That does not exist. 100k years ago is far far in the prehistory. India wasn't even anything until maybe 300BC, and that's generous.

      "India never invaded any country in her last 100000 years of history." Lazy. "Algebra, Trigonometry and Calculus are studies, which originated in India" Did they check with Leibniz or Newton on that? Some of those *facts* could use some fact checking. "Chess was invented in India." High five for that one.

          Are you sure that you can apply that timescale? The country didn't exist then - it was just geography at that point.

              Please visit the GIT[^], and take part in the discussions there. That will help you get a vibe of how things work here (there may still be vast differences between the lounge and GIT, but you'll at least become acceptable here if you spend some time there).

                    I think India also invented "exageration" (or the integer overflow).

                      That's Indian slang for "leap of faith".

                          You can share such India related information in GIT (General Indian Topics). That is better place to share.

                                  I already thought they belonged to Mexico. Actually, I don't think Mexico ever stopped owning those territories. I grew up in LA and went H.S. in LA and we had 2500 students in our H.S. and only 32 were "white" and 11 were "black" and the rest were Mexican and Asian...mostly Mexican. So for all intents and purposes, I grew up in Mexico...so I guess that makes me a quarter Mexican. ;)

                                          I already thought they belonged to Mexico. Actually, I don't think Mexico ever stopped owning those territories. I grew up in LA and went H.S. in LA and we had 2500 students in our H.S. and only 32 were "white" and 11 were "black" and the rest were Mexican and Asian...mostly Mexican. So for all intents and purposes, I grew up in Mexico...so I guess that makes me a quarter Mexican. ;)
