India history and geography
Source: Mandala Texts: Yakchoe: The Grand Festival of Ura VillageLongchenpa (14th century) is the name of historian who write about the village Ura Makrong in Bhutan.—Although there is no written record of about how the village was founded, some semi-historical accounts contain fascinating but legend-laden information about Ura's distant past. [...] In their accounts of Ura, Guru Chowang (1212-70) and Longchenpa (1308-63) state that there are descendants of Tibetan royal lines in Ura. We also find some information about Ura in the 15th century in the biography of Pema Lingpa (1450-1521), whose father was a native of Ura valley.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
