We often hear the term “Indian subcontinent”, but have you ever wondered why India is not called a continent despite its vast diversity?

India stands out because of its extraordinary diversity of languages, ethnic groups, religions, cultures, and traditions. Add to this its distinct geographical boundaries—the Himalayas in the north and oceans on three sides—which separate it from much of the rest of the world.

Together, these factors give India the feel of a continent in itself. However, when compared to the actual size of continents, India is relatively smaller. This is why it is classified as a subcontinent rather than a full continent.

This video explains what a subcontinent is and why India fits that definition perfectly.
