Social studies can be fun too..

Today we chose a country for a project in social studies class. I couldn't decide between Australia and India. I noticed that Australia has their National Day today. I thought it must be a sign and my choice was clear, until I discovered India also has their National Day today. I was stunned. I like coincidences.

I chose India. Because of the tea and mango, I guess.

Want to know some fun facts?

• Chess was invented in India
• Algebra, Trigonometry and Calculus originated in India
• India has the largest number of Post Offices in the world
• Until 1896, India was the only source of diamonds in the world
• India is the world's largest mango producer
• India is the largest tea producer in the world
• India is the world's number one producer of vegetarian cheese

I like India!
