Today, the popularity of the English language in India, its low cost of living, and its intelligent workforce make it an attractive place for large American companies to relocate or "offshore" their jobs.  Often when Americans call "customer service" for large companies, they are actually reaching low-cost operators in India, sometimes using Americanized first names.

India is more than a country.  It is a subcontinent.  It is vast in size: two-fifths the area of all of Europe.  150 different languages are spoken there today.  In this century India will most likely surpass China as the most populous country in the world.  Even though it has traditionally been a poor country, for decades it has produced more food than it can consume.  The predominantly Hindu people of India have been advancing the frontiers of medicine, mathematics and many other fields.
