  1. The population o Bhutan haed been estimatit based on the reportit figur o aboot 1 million in the 1970s when the kintra haed jyned the Unitit Naitions an precise statistics wur lackin.[8] Thus, uisin the annual increase rate o 2–3%, the maist population estimates wur aroond 2 million in the year 2000. A naitional census wis carried oot in 2005 an it turned oot that the population wis 672,425. Consequently, Unitit Naitions Population Diveesion reduced its estimatation o the kintra's population in the 2006 reveesion[9] for the whole period frae 1950 tae 2050.

Bhutan, offeecally the Kinrick o Bhutan (pronoonced /buːˈtɑːn/ ( listen); Dzongkha: འབྲུག་ཡུལ་; Wylie: 'drug yul; Tibetan pinyin: Zhugyü), is a sma landlocked kintra in Sooth Asie, locatit at the eastren end o the Himalayas an bordered tae the sooth, east an wast bi the Republic o Indie an tae the north bi the Fowkrepublic o Cheenae. Bhutan is separatit frae the nearbi state o Nepal tae the wast bi the Indian state o Sikkim, an frae Bangladesh tae the sooth bi Wast Bengal.

Till the early 17t century, Bhutan existit as a patchwirk o minor warrin fiefdoms, when the aurie wis unified bi the Tibetan lama an military leader Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal who fled releegious persecution in Tibet an cultivatit a separate Bhutanese identity. In the early 20t century, Bhutan came unner the influence o the Breetish Empire, an then upon Indian independence, that o Indie. In 2006, Business Week magazine ratit Bhutan the happiest kintra in Asie an the aicht-happiest in the warld based on a global survey.[10] The caipital ceety o Bhutan is Thimphu. Its offeecial leid is Dzongkha.

Name

[eedit | eedit soorce]

"Bhutan" is a kachari wird, as at ane time Bhutan wis in the aurie o Tibet. "A place o Bod" in Tibetan, Di-Bod meant a place o frozen water, it later became DiBodo-Tibodo-Tibet. Likewise, Bodo hathan-Bhuthan-Bhutan is a possible oreegin o the name: frae Bod, a name o place an Hathan-a kynd o place, in this way Bod Hathan-Bhuthan-Bhutan. In anither theory o Sanskritisation, Bhoṭa-anta (भोट-अन्त) means "At the end o Tibet", as Bhutan is immediately tae Tibet's sooth.

Historically Bhutan wis kent bi mony names, such as Lho Mon (soothren land o daurkness), Lho Tsendenjong (soothren land o the Tsenden cypress), Lhomen Khazhi (soothren land o fower approaches) an Lho Men Jong (soothren land o medicinal herbs).
