My Country My Pride

My country My Pride

                                                        My small country, Nepal is located between two large countries China and India. The area of her is 1,47,181 square kilometre. The density of population in urban regions is higher than in rural regions. Similarly valleys and plains are more densely populated than hilly religions.

                                                 Nepal is an agro-based country. About Eighty percentage of the people depend on agriculture. Some of the educated people are employed in other sectors such as teaching, office work, business, etc. Although the people belong to various social groups and religions, they really practise 'unity in diversity'. The followers of one religion respect the people who belong to another religion. The feeling of fraternity among the people governs the society. People speak different languages and enjoy different modes of cultures and traditions.

                                            Nepal is famous for natural beauties and gifts in the world. Although she is land-locked, the people from foreign countries are fond of visiting her. She is famous for mountains, rivers. lakes, etc. The highest mountain peak in the world, Mt. Everest, lies in Nepal. Many tourists visit her every year. Through tourism, she is able to earn foreign currency which can be used for development.

                                            Nepal is rich in water resources. Many rivers flow from high mountains twisting and turning round the hills and move through the Terai. Many brooks and streams serve the people in many ways. They are advantageous for irrigation, transportation, rafting, running hydro-electricity projects and so on.

                                           We can get many advantages from forests. Our country Nepal seems to be beautiful because of the green forests, but nowadays the forest is being destroyed rapidly in many ways. Deforestation may result many natural disasters such as landslides, over-flood, soil erosion, desertification and siltation of rivers and lakes. Nowadays the programmes of afforestation and reforestation have preserved the forest. In the forests, there are many wild animals. National parks and wild-life reserves preserve many wild animals and birds. Many tourists come to Nepal to watch  them.

                                            Nepal is a developing country. About 60 percentage of people are literate. Many schools and colleges have been opened. The farmers are provided with the facilities of irrigation, modern fertilizers, improved seeds and modern methods of farming. The facilities of electricity, health care, transportation and communication are also increasing.

                                               I feel proud to be the citizen of Nepal and called to be Nepalese. We Nepalese people respect each other. We feel that mother and motherland are same. I love my country, Nepal very much.
