​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Geography of India is probably the biggest factor behind its history. THE HIMALAYAS AND HIMALAYAN RIVERS - the 2,400 kilometres long Himalayan range was created as a result of collision of the Indian tectonic plate with the Eurasian Plate that took place around 50 million years ago.

Answer 2

The geography of India greatly influenced the location of early settlements on the subcontinent. Both the Indus and the Ganges rivers carried rich silt from the mountains to the plains. When the rivers flooded, the silt spread over the plains and made the soil in the river valleys fertile for farming.
