We've put together some mind-blowing facts about India. It is a country where strange and unique things are possible. You will be amazed to find out what unusual traditions this culture is full of. India is the second largest English-speaking country in the world where followers of all the world’s major religions live.

There are crazy rich people in the country who build personal skyscrapers for their families and people who neglect modern culture. Here, there are 6 seasons in a year and a specific head gesture for agreeing. The divorce rate in the country is super low. No surprise India is home to the biggest family in the world.

Genius local farmers have invented a very special use for Coca-Cola and Pepsi, and IDs for cows. More than that, the Indian people invented many things we all can't live without: from buttons and shampoo to wireless communication and cataract surgery.
