Indian History is a vast and ancient narrative that spans thousands of years, shaped by diverse cultures, dynasties, and civilizations. It begins with the Indus Valley Civilization, one of the world’s earliest urban societies, followed by the rise of major empires like the Maurya and Gupta Empires, which contributed to advancements in governance, science, and culture. Over time, India experienced the influence of foreign invaders, including the Mughals and the British, leading to colonial rule. India gained independence in 1947, marking the beginning of its modern era as a democratic republic. Indian history reflects a blend of traditions, philosophies, and historical events that continue to shape its identity today.
