The Seven Sister States are a region in
northeastern India, comprising the contiguous
states of
Arunachal Pradesh,
Assam,
Meghalaya,
Manipur,
Mizoram,
Nagaland, and
Tripura. The region had a population of 38.6 million in
2000, about 3.8 percent of India's total. The ethnic and religious diversity that characterizes the seven states distinguishes them from the rest of India. For most of their history, they were independent, and their complete integration with India came about only during the
British Raj.
