Bhutan
The Kingdom of Bhutan is a
landlocked nation in the
Himalaya Mountains, sandwiched between
India and
China in
South Asia. The Bhutanese call their country 'Druk Yul'(land of the thunder dragon). Historically Bhutan was known by many names, such as Lho Mon (southern land of darkness), Lho Tsendenjong (southern land of the 'Tsenden'
cypress), and Lhomen Khazhi (southern land of four approaches). The origins of the name Bhutan are unclear; historians have suggested that it may have originated in variations of the
Sanskrit words Bhota-ant (the end of Bhot – another word for
Tibet), or Bhu-uttan (highlands). The word Bhutan as a name for the country dates from the late
19th century.
