India and Nepal are two amazingly great countries that are different from another and
Both of them have their own traditions and culture that brings out the best in people and today here on FTD facts

Now on top of that before I get in this video. I want to let you guys know that here on the channel
we generally don't take sides we give you guys the
Statistics and you guys can decide which country is better for you and with that in mind. Let's get started guys
Let's talk about India and Nepal. Oh yeah, so India, it's got a population of 1 billion
324 million one hundred seventy-one thousand three hundred people ranking second in the world now with that
It's population density has 390 5.2 people per square kilometer
ranking seventh in the world
Now India is quite a huge country compared to Nepal and it has a land size of three million two hundred and eighty seven
Thousand two hundred and sixty three square kilometers with water equaling about 9.8
Percent of that now like I said Nepal is a much smaller country
But one thing that's really good about it is it's a very mountainous country, and it's very beautiful to go to as well
But for its population it sits at approximately 28 million nine hundred and eighty two thousand seven hundred people
Ranking 48th in the world now
It's population density has approximately one hundred and eighty people per square kilometer
And as for its land size eight equals one hundred forty seven thousand one hundred to 81
Kilometers square and because of its mountainous terrain approximately only 2.8 percent of that is actually water now
Let's break this down. Even further guys. Let's get right into talking about money because the buck doesn't stop at population
I hope you guys like that little pun there now India uses the Indian
And one rupee equals about point zero one six US dollars now for Nepal
They use the Nepalese rupee
Which one of those equals point zero zero nine seven US Dollars and to give you a better idea
One Nepal rupee equals point six two Indian rupees and considering. We're now talking about money
Let's talk about GDP now
We're gonna use the purchasing power parity because that is the best way to compare one nation to another now for India its
GDP equals ten point three three nine trillion now of that it exports
265 billion dollars in goods with nine point nine percent of that being refined petroleum and nine point three percent of that being diamonds now
Nepal on the other hand is a much different country because it imports way more than it exports
First of all its GDP sits at seventy four point zero two billion with two thousand five hundred seventy three dollars per
capita of it's nine hundred nine million dollar
Exports nine point one percent of that is flavored water and eight point two percent of that is mounted carpets
But as for imports it
destroys being six point six 1 billion
Dollars in goods and of that eight point seven percent is refined petroleum and four point three percent of that is silver
But what does that all mean? Well if we're to compare these two when it comes to their money?
We gotta look at living expenses now if you were to move to Nepal from India food would be approximately thirteen percent higher
Housing would be 11 percent higher clothes would be one percent lower
Transportation would be fifty five percent higher personal care would be seven percent higher and oddly enough entertainment would be
Right on point. It'd be zero percent higher
It's just the same in Nepal as it is in India
However, if you were to move to Nepal from India, it would be nineteen percent more to live there, so yeah
That's great. Nepal is a little more expensive. They got less people there
You know their GDP may not be as high as India
But let's take a look at national debt for example the national debt in India is roughly seventy point six trillion dollars in
Their rupees equalling fifty nine thousand one hundred rupees per citizen now as for a Nepal
We got a look at 2016 data because they haven't released any information
as of recent and for that the national debt of
Nepal equals five point seven seven nine billion dollars and the thing about these two countries a lot of this money is
Generated from tourism and because Nepal is home to one of the largest mountains in the world
It makes one great place for a scenic tourist trip and because of that tourism is the largest
Contributor to its economy and to give you an example from 2015 to 2017
tourism skyrocketed a whopping 75%
with
2017 having approximately nine hundred and forty thousand people visit the country now of course India
Smashes that they have like eight point eight million people visit the country at least in 2017
But however the growth of it hasn't changed much from
2015 to 2017 because in 2016 it went up only nine point seven percent of the previous year
But in 2016 India did make 22 million dollars in tourism alone, so what do you think about these two countries?
