Coordinates: 19°N 96°W  /  19°N 96°W  / 19; -96 The Americas (also collectively called America ) is a landmass comprising the totality of North and South America. The Americas make up most of the land in Earth's Western Hemisphere and comprise the New World. Along with their associated islands, the Americas cover 8% of Earth's total surface area and 28.4% of its land area. The topography is dominated by the American Cordillera, a long chain of mountains that runs the length of the west coast. The flatter eastern side of the Americas is dominated by large river basins, such as the Amazon, St. Lawrence River–Great Lakes basin, Mississippi, and La Plata. Since the Americas extend 14,000 km (8,700 mi) from north to south, the climate and ecology vary widely, from the arctic tundra of Northern Canada, Greenland, and Alaska, to the tropical rain forests in Central America and South America. Humans first settled the Americas from Asia between 42,000 and 17,000 years ago. A secon...

Exactly what has however been crucial to the idea of the republic everywhere is the notion of inclusiveness. In this respect the testimonies that have been coming out of India in recent times tell a tale that is chilling to the bones a tale which leaves behind a stench this no amount of sloganeering concerning Swachh Bharat or even some thing more than a symbolic wielding in the broom can eradicate. If inclus...
