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

      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.

          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).

                    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. ;)

                                        Why is everyone so worked up on this? If India has existed for, let's say 7000 years, and in that time they never invaded any country then they sure did not invade any country in the past 100000 years, or long.MaxValue years or any number of years. This little fact (true or not) states that India has not invaded any country, not that it has been around that long. The fact that the website has the .gov domain is what worries me more. No governments would talk bad about their own country, so what we see there might be 'slightly' exeggerated uhmm... 'facts' :rolleyes:

                                        It's an OO world.
