Introduction:

Sikkimย is aย stateย in northeasternย India. It bordersย Tibetย in the north and northeast,ย Bhutanย in the east,ย Nepalย in the west, andย West Bengalย in the south. Sikkim is also located close to Indiaโ€™sย Siliguri Corridorย nearย Bangladesh. Sikkim is theย least populousย andย second smallestย among the Indian states. A part of theย Eastern Himalaya, Sikkim is notable for itsย biodiversity, includingย alpineย andย subtropicalย climates, as well as being a host toย Kangchenjunga, theย highest peak in Indiaย andย third highest on Earth. Sikkimโ€™sย capitalย and largest city isย Gangtok. Almost 35% of the state is covered by theย Khangchendzonga National Park.

Theย Kingdom of Sikkimย was founded by theย Namgyal dynastyย in the 17th century. It was ruled by aย Buddhistย priest-king known as theย Chogyal. It became aย princely stateย ofย British Indiaย in 1890. After 1947, Sikkim continued itsย protectorateย status with the Republic of India. It enjoyed the highest literacy rate and per capita income amongย Himalayan states. In 1973, anti-royalist riots took place in front of the Chogyalโ€™s palace. In 1975, the monarchy was deposed by the people. Aย referendumย in 1975 led to Sikkim joining India as its 22nd state.
