Dear All!
If you know the facts, as it is believed by all of the historians, that EVE and ADAM descended from the heavens on a mount now located in SRI LANKA. It is called "Adam's Foot".
Now all the other masses of land were eventually discovered by some human beings. So you can't say that India is the only one which was not discovered..

There were great Civilization like Indus Valley (India) , Greek, Roman, Egypt , Persian in the world long time ago even before Jesus. So they were not discovered. The oldest known man to civilization was supposed to be from Africa, Neanderthal men ,which is about 50,000 years ago.
America was not discovered by Columbus but Columbus landed at west Indies only and called it India. An Italian captain Amerigo Vespuchi has come to America and claimed that it was not India as Columbus has claimed and it was known after his name as America.
Actually America was inhabited by some native people both in North and south.

India was not there from the beginning. If you believe in creationism, the first people came from the Garden of Eden (wherever the hell that is), and if you believe in evolution, then humans evolved in an area of northern Africa according to most accounts. Either way, the whole Earth was 'discovered' by people long before Columbus and those guys. There were tons of people here already when Columbus came.

You are absolutely right! America actually did not exist as a land mass until the Europeans "discovered" it. India, on the other hand was the first land mass and people have been there for billions of years, actually. There were Indians there before the dinosaurs in fact. In fact, all life on earth came after India and the Indians.

Really, all of them. Population expanded from a central source, generally thought to be in mesopotamia (Iraq,Iran) and outward. Governments evolved in each area as it was populated. For instance, Egypt has been populated at least 6000 years. No one really discovered it.
Also, while Columbus may have been the first European to find North America, he didn't really discover it, because the indigenous civiliations (American Indians) were waving to him from the shore.

As the entire earth as been mapped in great details from space, it is unlikely that any land masses of any significate size remain undiscovered on the surface of the earth.
