Nepal PowerPoint Map – Make a striking presentation showcasing Nepal’s beauty with the Nepal PowerPoint Map template. The country is best known for its natural attractions, particularly the tallest peak in the world, Mount Everest. Aside from its famous peaks, it’s also gaining popularity in the tourism industry through its beautiful temples and natural landscapes. Another highlight in Nepal is the Gorkha regiments. Nepal has a long standing good relationship with its neighbors China and India. This relationship gave way to the Gorka’s military position in India. They are military men serving the Indian Army and reside in Nepal. They are well known for courageous winnings of gallantry awards before and after joining the Indian army.
Despite its beauty, the country seems to have a lot of challenges in pushing its economy forward due to its political unrest. Nepal’s government used to be a monarchy system until 1990 when King Birendra converted its system to a parliamentary monarchy to avoid communist activities against absolute monarchy. The peace talk with the Maoist rebels in 2006 lead to another change in the government. The King gave up power and a House of Representatives which consists of the Maoist members was formed. After a year, its government became a federal republic. Afterwards, a president was elected as the head of state in 2008.
