India and China are the two most populated countries in the world
Located in South Asia India is a seventh largest country by area
And it's the second most
populous country China sits at number one in terms of population and both countries house a third of the world's total population
How's it going? Everyone welcome back to another episode of FTD facts?
This is another which is better episode, India and China
It's gonna be real exciting and before we get into this episode guys
I want to know India or China, which country is better. Let me know down below
So we just talked a little bit about
population in the intro of this video and India's population totals 1.3 4 billion people
And it's the second most populated country in the world and the population density sits at 450 people per square kilometer
Now in China the population is at 1.4 billion people with a population density of
150 people per square kilometer in terms of land size area
India sits at 3.2 H 7 million square kilometers
which is equal to one point two six square miles and
China is at nine point five million square kilometers
Which is three point seven square miles and now since we got that out of the way now
I want to move on to life expectancy in both of these countries in India
it's at sixty eight point five years for males at sixty seven point three years and for females at sixteen nine point eight years and
the total life expectancy in China is
76 point one years with females being at 78 point one and the males being at 74 point one years
So they got a few years above India there
Let's take a look at the religion now from these two countries so in India
There's no favoritism by the state given to any sort of religion at all however neither India's Constitution
or its laws define any kind of relationship between religion and the state
So it's kind of unclear where India sits, but for the most part. They're considered a secular nation
But when we get into the specifics of what religions people follow in India 80% of the people follow
Hindu and in terms of religion in China the folk religion is at seventy three point five six percent of people
Buddhism is at fifteen percent and
Christianity sits at two point five three percent in China
So we knew these nations are big
They're powerful, and they have a lot of people in them, but what sort of money are they dealing with
The GDP in India is nine point four eight nine trillion, US dollars
And in China that number is twenty three point one two trillion dollars
And that works out to be sixteen thousand six hundred and twenty-four dollars per capita
The currency that China uses is a renminbi and India uses the Indian rupee
India's national debt works out to be one point zero nine trillion, US dollars
Interest per year is a seventy one point nine billion u.s.. Dollars, which works out to be two thousand two hundred eighty two
dollars per second of interest now China's debt totals at four point six trillion, US dollars
And the interest on that debt is one hundred and fifty three point six billion dollars per year
Which is four thousand eight hundred seventy three dollars per
Second of interest now when you look at China
and you take the population of 1.4 billion people and if you divide the total debt by the
Population amount the total debt per person is a little over three thousand US dollars
And if you were to take dollar bills and stack them up on top of each other with that amount of debt it would pile
Up to be five hundred and six thousand five hundred fifteen
Kilometers high and that works out to be one point three two trips to the moon. Okay now
This is probably one my favorite parts in these which is better episodes for countries when I mash up the military power
China is one of the most powerful countries
they ranked third place in the world and their available manpower seven hundred fifty million with a total military personnel of
3.7 million people in terms of aircraft they have
2955 they have six thousand four hundred fifty seven combat tanks and
1770 rocket projectors China has 69 submarines in their knavery
51 frigates thirty five destroyers thirty-five Corvettes
But only one aircraft carrier and the labor force in China is completely off the charts
Like it's so huge eight hundred and five million nine hundred thousand people
Now moving on to India so India has the third largest
military in the world in terms of active
Frontline personnel so not the most powerful just the largest
But when you put them on the scale of global military power they ranked fourth
India's total defense budget sits at fifty three point five billion dollars, but that's gonna go way up
India's Ministry of Defense says India will need two hundred and thirty three billion dollars to meet its arms and equipment requirements in eleven years
So that's gonna be more than
Triple what they're spending now on their military
But either way India still is an advantage because in late 2016
India completed its nuclear triad by adding a strategic nuclear submarine I&S Air Han in its military
India has become one of the only countries to do this
And if you're not familiar with the term nuclear triad well that refers to a country's ability to launch nuclear
Warheads from the land the sky as well as from the sea
Now when we look at their film and entertainment industry
Bollywood in India is of course a large part of the cinema in India in
2016 last year Bollywood earned two point four billion dollars u.s.. Cinema in China was introduced back in
1896 and China is a home of the largest
movie and drama production complex and film studios in the entire world the oriental movie metropolis and the
Hengdian
world studios and in 2010 it had the third largest film industry by the number of feature films produced in one
year in 2016 the total box office earnings in China was six point five eight billion dollars US
But with crossover and collaboration with Bollywood and Hollywood
happening a lot more frequently
Indian cinema is also a lot more in the limelight than Chinese cinema
now when we go back in history and take a look at some of the inventions and contributions by the
Chinese we see that China has contributed a lot to science and technology
Like some amazing achievements by the Chinese include the compass paper making the gunpowder
Printing and yeah these discoveries just naming a few of them had a huge impact on all the cultures throughout the world
But India has also had some amazing
Discoveries and inventions throughout their history as well like the invention of shampoo started in India as well as in the year
1780 we saw the first inventions of rockets started in India as well
And also these things right here, I don't know if you can see but like this thing here the button on my shirt
Yeah, buttons were also invented in India first, so there you go guys
That was your side-by-side comparison with these two giant powerhouse of countries
China and India
But before I get out of here
You will need to check out our facts about India video series where we dive deeper into the history and culture of
India we also have two dedicated videos on Chinese history and culture as well that you can check out the links are down below to

I highly recommend
watching them again the links to those videos are down below and learn more about the history and culture of India as well as a
History and culture of China in closing although tensions, surrounding the so called line of actual control
which separates India from China has really increased in recent days there has really been no extreme attacks from either sides because
Of this China and India have both historically been and perhaps can still be seen as the centers of
civilization in Asia up in Northeast Asia and some Southeast Asian countries
Historically are influenced by Chinese culture and that can easily be seen
similarly Indian culture could be traced in many South and Southeast Asian countries don't forget guys
You can follow me on Instagram of course link to that is in the video description and of course
Let me know before you leave. What country. Do you think is better, India or China?
