brown skinned. In sunny India, my ancestors have naturally
turned brown over 4000 years of migration, to fight the
ultra-violet rays. Indians from southern part are are usually
most dark skinned, eastern India next, and northwest Indians
have the lighter skin color. All a result of how intense is
the sun in the area and ancestral mix. The Aryan nomads who
invaded India 4000 years ago were light skinned and got
darker over centuries from sun and mixing with native Indians.

All Americans will acquire the hue of native Americans after
a couple of thousand years.

What makes India unique is that the oldest institution of
higher learning is over 2000 years old! Many major religions
got their start in India such as Hinduism, Buddhism, etc.
Hindu religion had beginnings 4000 years ago.

The largest democracy in world is doing just fine. However
I am now a proud naturalized American citizen.
