It is located amidst the eastern end of the Himalaya Mountains and is bordered to the south, east and west by India and to the north by China. Bhutan is separated from Nepal by the Indian state of Sikkim. The Bhutanese call their country Druk Yul (land of the thunder dragon). [1]Bhutan is one of the most isolated and least developed nations in the world.[ citation needed] Foreign influences and tourism
are regulated by the government to preserve the nation's traditional
culture, identity and the environment, however, in 2006 Business Week
rated Bhutan the happiest country in Asia and the eighth happiest
country in the world. [2] The landscape ranges from subtropical plains in the south to the Himalayan heights in the north, with some peaks exceeding 7,000 metres (23,000 ft). The state religion is Vajrayana Buddhism, and the population is predominantly Buddhist, with Hinduism being the second-largest religion. The capital and largest city is Thimphu. After centuries of direct monarchic rule, Bhutan held its first democratic elections in March 2008. Bhutan is a member of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC).
