Arab–Israeli relationship
The Arab–Israeli conflict refers to the political tensions and open hostilities between the Arab people of the Middle East and the Jewish community of present-day Israel that have lasted for over a century. Some trace the beginning of the conflict to large-scale Jewish immigration to Palestine, especially after the establishment of the Zionist movement, which intensified with the creation of the modern State of Israel in 1948. This territory was regarded by the Jewish people as their historical homeland, and by the Pan-Arab movement as belonging to the Palestinians, be they Muslim, Christian, Druze or other (and in the Pan-Islamic context, in territory regarded as Muslim lands).
The conflict, which started as a political and nationalist conflict over competing territorial ambitions following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, has shifted over the years from the large scale regional Arab–Israeli conflict to a more local Israeli–Palestinian conflict, though the Arab World and Israel generally remain at odds with each other over specific territory.

With an area of 1,073,399 square miles (2,780,092 square km) – more extensive than Mexico and the U.S. state of Texas combined – it is the eighth largest country in the world. Argentina is shaped like an inverted triangle with its base at the top; it is some 880 miles (1,420 km) across at its widest from east to west and stretches 2,360 miles (3,800 km) from the subtropical north to the subantarctic south.

Australia is located in the Southern Hemisphere between the Indian ocean and the South Pacific Ocean. Australia is a political federation with a central government (the Commonwealth) and six constituent states (New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania). Papua New Guinea, formerly an Australian external territory, became an independent nation in 1975. The most striking characteristics of the vast, three-million square-mile (eight-million-square-kilometre) country are its global isolation, its low relief, and the aridity of much of its surface. Its isolation from other continents explains much of the strangeness of Australian plant and animal life.

The Kingdom of Bhutan, ‘the land of the thunder dragon’ lies in the eastern Himalayas bordered north by china and on all other sides by India. Its location between the Assam-Bengal Plain of India to the south and the Chinese-occupied Plateau of Tibet to the north gives it considerable geopolitical significance.

Download project PDFClimate
Climate is the characteristic condition of the atmosphere near the earth’s surface at a given place or over a given region. Components that enter into the description and classification of climate are mostly the same as weather components used to describe the state of the atmosphere at a given instant. If weather information deals with the specific event, then climate represents a generalization of weather. A statement of the climate of a given observing station, or of a designated region, is described through the medium of weather observations accumulated over many years time. Not only are mean, or average, values taken into account, but also the departures from those means and the probabilities that such departures will occur.
Download project PDFInflitration From Bangladesh: Estimates
It is a well known fact that the population of Muslims in India is increasing sharply. Some writers like Koenraad Elst* claim that one reason for this – besides the higher birth rate for Muslims – is the infiltration of Muslims from Bangladesh (earlier East Pakistan). Overall, to some extent, the above claim is true as is borne out by our calculations but it is not a very significant contributing factor – that being the higher birth rate for the Muslims – to the growth of Muslim population in India. We have used the word overall because the infiltration of Muslims in India has not been a one-way street throughout the period of our study (1951-2001). The Hindus have been continuously infiltrating into India throughout the above period but during the first two decades, (1951-71) Muslims actually migrated out of India. According to our calculations, during these two decades (1951-71) a total of 44 lakh 53 thousand Hindus infiltrated into India but there was a net outflow of 8 lakh 35 thousand Muslims from India to East Pakistan (Bangladesh). Some time before East Pakistan became Bangladesh in Dec. 1971, a very large number – about 10 million according to the official figures – of Bangladeshi refugees (both Hindus & Muslims) entered India.

Download project PDFUnderstanding Calendars
A calendar is a system of organizing days for social, religious, commercial, or administrative purposes. This is done by giving names to periods of time, typically days, weeks, months, and years. The name given to each day is known as a date. Periods in a calendar (such as years and months) are usually, though not necessarily, synchronized with the cycles of some astronomical phenomenon, such as the cycle of the sun or the moon. Many civilizations and societies have devised a calendar, usually derived from other calendars on which they model their systems, suited to their particular needs.
