Title
Nepal was until 2007 the only Hindu Kingdom of the world, but has since 2008 been a federal dem
Nr. 06 - Nepal var indtil 2007 det eneste hindukongedømme i verden, og har siden 2008 været en føderal demokratisk republik, som også formelt inkluderer religionsfrihed. Men religion spiller fortsat en stor rolle i hverdagslivet og i alle kulturelle aktiviteter. Befolkningen er på en måde en blanding af buddhister og hinduer, som er fælles om at markere hinandens fester. (Her en statue af Buddha, 1986)

Description
Nepal was until 2007 the only Hindu Kingdom of the world, but has since 2008 been a federal democratic republic. This also formally includes religious freedom. However, religion continues to play a major role in the daily life and in all cultural activities. In a way most people are a mixture of Buddhism and Hinduism, sharing celebration of the different festivals with each other. (Here a statue of Buddha, 1986).
