India is one of the four ancient civilizations in the world. The Indus civilization was created between 2500 and 1500 B.C. Around 1500 BC, one of the Aryan people living in central Asia entered the subcontinent of South Asia, conquering indigenous people and establishing brahmanism. The rise of the peacock dynasty in the fourth century BC unified India, which culminates in the reign of ashoka in the 3rd century BC, making Buddhism a state religion. Founded by the gupta dynasty in the 4th century, it formed a centralized power and ruled for over 200 years. In the middle ages, there was a rise in Hinduism. In 1398, turkic mongolians invaded India from central Asia. Established the mughal empire in 1526, becoming one of the world powers at that time. Britain invaded India in 1600. In 1757 India became a British colony, and in 1849 it was occupied by the British. In June 1947, Britain adopted the "mountbatten programme" to divide India into two self-governing territories, India and Pakistan. On August 15, the same year, India was independent. On January 26, 1950, the constitution of India entered into force, and the republic of India was established and remained a member of the commonwealth.
