Answer 2

Yes, India  was an isolated country in the ancient period

Explanation:

• Ancient India was isolated because of the Himalayan Mountains from the rest of the ancient world
• The Himalayan Mountain Range had become a barrier between India and the rest of the world, thereby defending  ancient India from invasion  
• In the mountains, the waters from snow-melting and from rain flowed and led to  the formation of rivers like Ganges and Indus that provided rich fertile soil.
