How come we never see people discuss Nepalian history

Because this is a TIBETAN yak herding internet forum

Not nepalese

Tibet is just a shoddier Nepal. Prove me wrong.

Aren't they basically bizarro Tibet? Or is it Tibet that is bizarro Nepal?

Buddha was born in Nepal so you could say Tibet is literally a bizarro Nepal (albeit without the vast ethnic diversity)

Why

Because no one cares about African history..

Good. I only know memes about them (yaks, budhism) but I was vaguely aware that they were quite similar, at least more similar to each other than to any other neighbour if you don't count Bhutan that is basically a tibetan kingdom. Maybe Kashmir is there too, I don't know shit about them.

Neither. Nepal is more Indian.

Tibet-lite is the other country Bhutan.

>Official reports state that Dipendra massacred his own family members because of anger over a marriage dispute. Dipendra's choice of bride was Devyani Rana, daughter of Pashupati Shamsher Rana, a member of the Rana clan.

>According to reports, at the dinner, Prince Dipendra had been drinking heavily, had smoked large quantities of hashish and "misbehaved" with a guest which resulted in his father King Birendra telling Dipendra, to leave the party. Dipendra was escorted to his room by his brother Prince Nirajan and cousin Prince Paras.

>An hour later, Dipendra walked outside the party room and pulled a SPAS-12 from a bag. He walked inside and fired a single shot hitting his father. Dipendra then went outside, removed the M16 from the bag, and returned to the room. He walked up to his father, who lay on the floor, and prepared to shoot him again. When his uncle Dhirendra tried to dissuade Dipendra from doing so, he shot his uncle in the chest at point-blank range.

>This was the beginning of the massacre.

>Dipendra aimed at Khadga, shooting him several times in the chest, killing him. His wife, Princess Sharada, ran over to her husband and began to cradle him. Dipendra then turned the gun on her and shot her multiple times in the back.

>Dipendra then shot Kumar, He fell onto a couch, groaning in pain. Princess Shruti, his wife, ran over to her husband only to be shot in the chest, falling on top of her husband.

> Dipendra walked over to his aunt, raised the rifle, and shot her. Shova was hit nine times in the back, but survived. Prince Paras had suffered slight injuries and managed to save at least three royals,including two children by pulling a sofa over them.

>Dipendra then killed Princess Komal, Princess Shanti, Princess Jayanti and wounded Chester in the shoulder.

>Dipendra then turned to Parash, who was protecting the other family members. Parash told him that he had done enough, and Dipendra, never saying a word, walked out of the room.

Meant to reply directly

African history is interesting and so is Nepalian.

>who is Buddha

Nepal and Tibet are very similar but also very different. Like said. Nepal even had a caste system.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caste_system_in_Nepal

Also Kashmir is it's own cultural thing.

Bump for the first king and unifier of Nepal.

Why isn't there a movie of this.
It even has the meme-shotgun SPAS-12 well known to western audiences.

Because nobody wins in the end.

Apart from his uncle who i think played a big part in it desu. ..

But Bhutan is not Tibet lite. Bhutan is Tibet.

This

>Historically relevant
I'm pretty sure creating one of the world's major religions is punching above their weight for a small country.

85% Pajeet, 15% Chang

Official language is Pajeetoeuropean

It's "Nepali"

There is a majority Nepali ethnicity, but it's more of a language grouping. Lots of minorities. Historically, Nepalis looked more Tibetan/mountain "East Asians", but came under Hindu influence early on. There's been historical influxes/migrations of more Dravidian-looking types, also Hindu, so there has been a lot of mixing by now. But as stated there are minorities that may still look more "Tibetan" or East Asian, too. I've been there and it's kinda funny seeing short little Chinese looking grannies wearing no pink orange saris with bindis on their foreheads. But you also see a lot of brown people.

Bhutanese are NOT Tibetan. They have more "Burman" admixture.

Kashmir is predominately Muslim and the population is almost entirely Indo-Aryan.

>confusing a region with a modern nationality

Does Hindu influence mean cultural or racial?

>Historically, Nepalis looked more Tibetan/mountain "East Asians", but came under Hindu influence early on. There's been historical influxes/migrations of more Dravidian-looking types,
When is this? There's always been Indics inside the region that's known as Nepal today.

Wrong. They have more Mongoloidish people.

>and the population is almost entirely Indo-Aryan.
Their population is nearly identical to the states surrounding it lol.

It's a mix of both.

Nepal is predominately Hindu, although there are exceptions.

>always been Indics
In the lowlands, only. The mountains themselves were more Asiatic types.

>Their population is nearly identical to the states surrounding it lol.
No. Kashmir is a lot more like Pakistan or Afghanistan really. Tibetan types are a very small minority there. Even most of the Hindus (with ancient tradition in the area) and Sikhs have left by now...

>In the lowlands, only. The mountains themselves were more Asiatic types.
No. When the Malla Dynasty took over Kathmandu there was a lot of intermingling then. While it's still easy to find 'pure' Khas people a lot of them have atleast some ""native"" influence.

>No. Kashmir is a lot more like Pakistan or Afghanistan really.
Yeah that's what I meant. It's a mix of nearly everything and everybody.

>Tibetan types are a very small minority there.
I thought Kashmir had a lot of Hazaras?

>Even most of the Hindus (with ancient tradition in the area) and Sikhs have left by now...
It's a real shame. But with Afghanistan and Pakistan blowing up in the past few decades and Kashmir blowing up in the past few years there's nothing you can really do about it.

I think individual people would be safe tho desu. Just not as a group.
