Wow, that is so not historically accurate. Here;s reality for you....
4000 BC-550ish BC India is not a nation. It's a whole bunch of tiny city kingdoms.
332-183 BC First major empire,Mauryan dynasty, in control of India (and how do you do think that this empire was achieved...hmmm) And the last ruler was assisnated which started the next dyanasty (very harmonious sounding)
183 BC to 3rd century AD- In the East the Gupta Dynasty.(3rd century) (the golden age, where i will give you that it was decently close to harmonious, but that harmony was maintained by military force :) While in the west various invasions from all kinds of Western Kingdoms and empires including the Greeks and Persians, oh and don't forget Central Asia too.
10th-16th Centuries - Various rulers and kingdoms who took turns taking each other out and ruling various parts of India (very harmonious)
16th-20th century - Colonial Rule from various powers. Fairly oppressive colonial rule at that.
1950-ongoing- To quote Wikipedia...."Since independence, India has seen sectarian violence and insurgencies in various parts of the country...It has unresolved territorial disputes with China, which escalated into the brief Sino-Indian War in 1962; and with Pakistan, which resulted in wars in 1947, 1965, 1971 and in 1999 in Kargil."
Not so harmonious huh?

I beg to differ. I've heard about the the hatred that exist between the muslims and the hindus, destroying each other's places of worship and killing innocent people all in the name of revenge. What about the women in the rural areas who suffer acid burns to their faces and bodies because their husbands are jealous? What about the caste system?
India is a beautiful and mystical place, but it is not the most harmonious nation in the world.

Although that is impressive, one should take into account the turmoil within the country. What about the caste system? That doesn't sound very harmonious to me.

You ever been to India? The driving is insane, corruption is insane there, the whole society is based on bribes. The sexual harrasment is crazy there, women being molested by men in public

I'm told that the Muslims there persecute both Hindu and Christian believers.
