India history and geography
Source: archive.org: Hindu Mathematics (History)Maximus Planudes (c. 1330) is the name of an European scholar who, in his works, included references to the “Indian number system” or “Hindu numeral notation” (with zero), which was perfected and was in use in India during the earliest centuries of the Christian era.—Maximus Planudes states that “the nine symbols come from the Indians”.
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.
