hey....here is your answer ^_^_______^_^


Kerala (38,863 km²; 1.18% of India’s landmass) is situated between theArabian Sea to the west and theWestern Ghats to the east. Kerala’s coast runs some 580 km in length, while the state itself varies between 35–120 km in width. Geographically, Kerala roughly divides into three climatically distinct regions. These include the eastern highlands (rugged and cool mountainous terrain), the central midlands (rolling hills), and the western lowlands (coastal plains). Located at the extreme southern tip of the Indian subcontinent, Kerala lies near the center of the Indian tectonic plate 

GEOGRAPHICAL CONDITIONS:
→  Indian Ocean. 
→  Inland freshwater bodies and estuaries.
→  Coastal low lands and mid-lands. 
→  Montane highlands (Western Ghats).
→  Urbanized areas (towns and cities).
→  Land transportation network (e.g., roads).

HISTORY:
The history of Kerala, India, dates back many millennia. Stone Age carvings in the Edakkal Caves feature pictorial writings believed to date to at least theNeolithic era around 5,000 BC, indicating the presence of a prehistoric civilisation or settlement in this region.[1] From as early as 3000 BC, Chera nadu, currently known as Kerala had established itself as a major spice trade centre.The word Kerala is first recorded (asKeralaputra) in a 3rd-century BC rock inscription (Rock Edict 2) left by theMaurya emperor Ashoka (274–237 BC).[2] The Land of Keralaputra was one of the five independent kingdoms in southern India during Ashoka's time, the others being Chola, Pandya, Tamiraparani and Satiyaputra.[3]A 3rd century CE, Brahmi inscription, found on Edakal cave, Ambukuthi hill, contained the word ‘Chera' (‘kadummipudha chera'), the earliest inscriptional evidence of the dynasty Chera.[4] The Cheras collapsed after repeated attacks from the neighboring Chola Empire andRashtrakuta Empire. In the 8th century,Adi Shankara was born at Kalady in central Kerala. He travelled extensively across the Indian subcontinentestablishing institutions of Advaita Vedanta philosophy.
