There were dynasties in India too. Like India, China was also occupied by foreign powers i.e. Japan or Britishers in case of Hong Kong till 1997. That should mean China is also an expression like Europe or India and it came into being in 1949.


Yeah sure

Dynasty is a modern term Indians today label the empires of ancient India subcontinent. But Indians do not see itself as a country until British created India. So dynasty do not apply to India. It apply to ancient Egypt and Chinese history. But it doesn't make sense on India except those Indians try to make up Indian history.

Few hundred before birth of Christ, certain People, namely, Greeks, to which western civilization relates to, wrote about a mighty river, east of river Nile, and named the river Indus and land, Indica.

There was never a people, who called themselves Indians nor there was any ethnicity labeled 'Indian'.

About the time of Vedas, land of Indus, i.e., Sindhu was called Septa Sindhu, that is, Land of 7 seven rivers, which in turn comprise of 5 rivers of Punjab, Sarawati and Sindhu. There is no mention of Peninsular India.
Down the history lane, when Aryan influence (read invasion) spread to northern and central Subcontinent, 16 Mahajanpada can be found around 600 B.C., Nothing is known about Southern Subcontinent during that time, that nations/tribes dwelled there, that these identified as. None of the 16 called it self India or some thing like.

It was in Agni Purana, dated first century B.C. that land below Himalaya and above Sea was called Bharata. It was the time when Aryan influence spread across Southern peninsula. But, point to note that Bharata was a Land not a nation.
During that entire time, Sub-continent was never a nation, and its inhabitants never recognized itself as a nation.
Just like Europe, it was home to multitudes of People, Nations, Tribes, Cultures etc. It nations continued to fight each other, tooth and nail, whether ancient or medieval or recent times.
Europeans when discovered American Continent in fifteen century A.D. named it people the Indians, and thought the land as India, despite the fact the 'original India' was more than half of Globe' away; thousands of miles away; But to them, it seems to me, nomenclature was not an issue. Whatever, could do.
It was the British, who when conquered all sub-continent, and addressed all its inhabitants Indian, a concept of unified nationhood arose, people generally started to be identified themselves a Indian.
Indian State came into being as on 15 August 1947.

Can you read maps? Your own source shows that half of Pakistan incl Kashmir, and part of Burma are not in 'India'.

That part we don't include in India. India is it self a most natural country gifted by god.

For hundreds of thousand of years now, geographical conditions has not change, not only on Indian Plate, but all across the Globe: Geographical markers, that is, mountain ranges, rivers, jungles, oceans etc. tend not to change over the course of millions of years, but political lines do change frequently; Countries and nations are marked by political lines. India is a term that used to denote a geographical area, not 'a nation', like Europe.

Earth's crust consists of 7 major and several minor and micro Plates, and out of Major 7, one is Indo-Australian Plate on which Peninsular India is situated. This has nothing to do with the political division of Earth, that is countries and there boundaries.

That part we don't include in India. India is it self a most natural country gifted by god.

Indian sub-continent completely, is mentioned in Agni Purana, as Bharata: Agni Purana is dated first century, B.C.
India state came into being in 1947.

Why dragging Sri Lanka in this mess. There are no archaeological records to indicates that Sri Lanka was ever part on an Indian (as a whole nation) political entity until now.
