3 Intro/Conclusion In a quick first glance of the great country of India, many people might not want to live there. India has many viewable on the outside problems, but as young kids are always told, It s what s on the inside that counts. The Indian culture is very interesting. Today I m going to tell you about India s education system, government, and most importantly, their food. In conclusion, I ve talked to you today about India s very interesting culture. India has an interesting education system, government, and foods. Remember, don t simply view India based upon its many problems. Instead, think about all that this wonderful culture has to offer.

4 Body First off, let s look at India s education system. There were three main time frames of India s education system; they were the Buddhist, Muslim, and British periods. Each period brought new advancements from allowing everyone the opportunity to be educated to the establishment of universities. The major subjects taught in India are theology, religion, philosophy, fine arts, painting, architecture, mathematics, medicine, and astronomy. India s education system has been a world leader throughout its history. Their system varies greatly from those of the United States in not only the level, but arguably the quality also. Next, let s look at the government of India. The government of India is a British system of Parliamentary Democracy. This system is bicameral which means it consists of two houses. These two houses are the Rajya Sabha (Council of States) which has 250 Members and is presided over by the Vice-President and the Lok Sabha (House of Representatives) which has 543 Members and is presided over by the Speaker of the House. The Prime Minister is also a member of the Lok Sabha. The Indian government also uses an electoral system to elect their President, but it is much different from that of the United States. The Indian system draws the votes from only the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, not the electors like here in the United States. These votes are used, however, just as the ones in the United States. The Prime Minister is said to be the most important person in the government and runs the government but the President still has the overall power. And once again, like the United States, the Supreme Court is the highest court in the land. The last stop on this Tour of India is its food. Indian food is greatly known for its spices, both digestive and food enhancing. The digestive spices used in Indian cuisine are: aniseed, cloves, areca nut, and cardamom. These spices are used to aid digestion. The next category of spices, which are very hot, are the food enhancement spices of: curry, mustard leaves, cayenne pepper, and various other hot spices. But how does the food relate to culture itself? In Northern India, they use a high quantity of hot spices to help keep them warm, which it is just the very opposite in the south where it is very hot. The various cultures that live together in India also have very different religious beliefs, so this affects their foods. For example, the Muslims of India do not eat pork; therefore they do not cook with it in any of their meals and will not be available in any of their restaurants. In the Hindu sections of India, where the Hindu believe cows are sacred, they don t eat beef and restaurants don t serve beef. So, if you ever get to take a trip to India, keep these things in mind.
