The Geography of  Nepal

The Himalayan Alpine Biome is very mountainous with snow on the top. Because the Himalayan mountain range is at a high altitude, the air is very thin. The Himalayan Alpine range is located in Asia in the countries of Nepal, China, India, Pakistan and Bhutan. The range makes a curve of 1,500 miles through Southern Asia. Things that make up the Biome are Mountains, the tundra like weather, and the extreme climate. The Himalayan Biome is ever growing more polluted, due to the growing popularity of climbing the mountains,littering, and factory and car exhaust.  

When people go up, all their supplies are left on the mountain because it takes too much energy to bring it down again. If someone dies, their body is left on the mountain. This is one of the main environmental factors. Soda cans, disposable water bottles, and heat packs. Another major environmental factor is air pollution, due to climbing mountains, amusement parks have aroused, that causes jobs. Doing this causes air pollution. Most people live in the green area down below because, on top of mountains, there is less oxygen. Most jobs sprout from a bigger population.



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The major religions in Nepal are Buddhism, Tantrism, Islam and Christianity. The major ethnic groups of Nepal are The Sherpa, The Gurung, The Thakali, Tamang, and The Rai. All of these ethnic groups share the same common language.  These Ethnic groups do celebrations and dancing during festivals and Nepalese, and Chinese New year. Tantrism is is a species of religious magic, differing from the Vedic sacrifices in method rather than principle. Buddhism grows out of the teaching of Buddha that suffering is inherent in life and that one can be liberated from it by mental and moral self-purification.

Nepal is a Parliamentary democracy, it used to recently be a Monarchy. It is also a Federal Democratic Republic. The Citizens vote for members of Parliament or the legislature. The Legislature then votes for the Prime Minister. The Citizens have freedom of speech and press.  
The economy of Nepal is a mixed market economy, it can easily be mistaken for a traditional economy. But in the mountains, they have to trade to get most of their goods because they don't have access to stores.  If you want a vacation spot, it is a very cheap place to be.

           

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 When the supplies are left there it makes the mountain look bad and harms animals. Air pollution has affected  many animals' lungs.  Pollution gets into the clouds and creates smog for much of Nepal.

           

             Many people have climbed Mount Everest and many have failed, and right now a man is attempting to become the first blind man to reach the summit. As you can see it is a very popular attraction, but when you trash the mountain it ruins others experience and animal’s lives.
