Because it's the birthday of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first Prime Ministers after freedom in 1947. He loved children, and children loved him. So, they called him Chacha Nehru. Chacha means uncle in Hindi So, 14th November is celebrated as Children's Day in India.
As an Asian Canadian, I'm glad you acknowledged that people know surprisingly little about Asia. I'm constantly astounded at how much people know about Europe and North America, but if you ask them to name, for example, the 2nd largest city in South Korea, most people would draw a blank (even though there was a hit movie named after that city about 3-4 years ago).

I actually got into an argument once with someone on how many continents there are. He told me 4. As Europe, Asia and Australia are all the same continent.
From a geological point of view India and Australia occupy the same tectonic plate, separate from Asia. The Himalayas includes the border between The Indo-Australusn Plate and Asia, though India is usually considered part of Asia from a non-geological standpoint.

New Year’s Day is also the birthday for hockey players in junior leagues. Considering how quickly kids grow, most hockey players have birthdays before April.
What you said about Vietnam is actually true in South Korea, too. People here always have to distinguish between their "Korean age" and "international age." When you're born, you're considered 1, then every New Year's after that, you turn another year older. So if your birthday has already passed this year, add 1 year to your age. If not, add 2 years to your age. That is your Korean age.
Russia is actually one of the least densely populated countries on earth, especially the Asian side. Russia has a fairly large population, about 140 million or so, but it's especially huge, and 70% of the country lives west of the Urals (thus, in Europe). The population density of Siberia is about 2 people per square km; for Comparison, China has about 145 people per sq km and Saudi Arabia has about 15 people per sq km.
"Largest, and most densely packed countries" as in largest (Russia, China), and densely packed (Indonesia). Indonesia is the 4th most populous country, but only the 15th largest.
Actually there are natural borders between Asia and Europe. The Ural Mountains, The Ural River, The Caspian Sea, The Caucasus Mountains, The Black Sea, and The Bosphorus Strait.

Yeah Eurasia. And Africa is only separated by a canal. Then there's the American continent also only separated by a canal. And there we have it. Eurafricasia, America, Antarctica, and some islands.
Salina Feuerherz I know mate. He just kind of missed a much more massive divide. Also land masses joining each other is not a definition of continent but if they sit on distinct shelves. Africa sits on one separate from Eurasia.
@@samanjj The definition of a continent is more than that. If you say it defines a continent because of distinct shelves than you have a problem with the oceanic islands and other continental fragments like Iceland and Madagascar. These are considered parts of Australia, Europe and Africa because of cultural constructs not because of continental shelves. And there are 4 or so models of continents and all are accepted and taught: - 7 continet model taught mostly in english-speaking countries (USA, UK, Australia etc), China, India, Pakistan, Philippines and parts of Western Europe - 6 continent model with combined Eurasia taught in Russia, Eastern Europe and Japan - 6 continet model with combined America taught in Latin America, Greece and Romanic speaking languages (and USA before WWII) - 5 continents model with combined America and excluded Antarctica (because uninhabited) used by the United Nations and the Olympic Charter - 9 continent model as scheme to describe the biodiversity, called "botanical continets"
No, Vietnam's "everyone's birthday" is not unique to it. The origin is a Chinese celebration called "Ren ri" (Translates to "day of man"). Occurs around the Chinese new year too, and according to legend it's the day the human race was created. That said, Vietnam is the only place where there's a whole set of festivities around the event...
@@tipsysmichigander6483 It depends where you come from. There are 4 models of the continents (5 up to 7 continents in these models): -The seven-continent model is usually taught in most English-speaking countries including the United States, United Kingdom and Australia and also in China, India, Pakistan, the Philippines, and parts of Western Europe. -The six-continent combined-Eurasia model is mostly used in Russia, Eastern Europe, and Japan. -The six-continent combined-America model is often used in Latin America, Greece and countries that speak Romance languages. -A five-continent model is obtained from the combined-America model by excluding Antarctica as uninhabited. This is used in the United Nations and in the Olympic Charter in its description of the Olympic flag. And there is also a model of "Botanical continents" which are 9 in total. All of these models are fine and accepted. And when you argue that continents are single landmasses divided by water then you can also say that there are only 4 continents: Eurafricasia, America, Antarctica and Australia, because Africa/Eurasia and South/Nord America are only divided by man-made canals and not naturally.

JC20COL ok then does that mean North America is actually two continents because of the Rockies? Or does the great dividing range mean that australia is actually split into two continents? That’s not how it works
Its silly to define all these different countries and cultures under the same Asia umbrella. Yeah they've all influenced each other is some way, but can you really put a russian, Chinese, vietnamese, Indian, and Saudi all in the same group? They're so vastly different.

It depends how you learned it and where you learned it. I believe there are 4 models of the continents (5 up to 7 continents in these models):
-The seven-continent model is usually taught in most English-speaking countries including the United States, United Kingdom and Australia and also in China, India, Pakistan, the Philippines, and parts of Western Europe.
-The six-continent combined-Eurasia model is mostly used in Russia, Eastern Europe, and Japan.
-The six-continent combined-America model is often used in Latin America, Greece and countries that speak Romance languages.
-A five-continent model is obtained from the combined-America model by excluding Antarctica as uninhabited. This is used in the United Nations and in the Olympic Charter in its description of the Olympic flag.
And there is also a model of "Botanical continents" which are 9 in total.
All of these models are fine and accepted.
And when you argue that continents are single landmasses divided by water then you can also say that there are only 4 continents: Eurafricasia, America, Antarctica and Australia, because Africa/Eurasia and South/Nord America are only divided by man-made canals and not naturally.
There’s also the Aral Sea, which was also a lake. Once a pretty big one too. But shrunk overtime due to irrigation projects
