General InformationIn ancient days, Assam was called as Kamarupa and many dynasties including the Varmanas, Salstambhas and Kamarupa Palas ruled this place. It was ruled by Ahoms for about 600 years and all the attempts of the Mughals to capture the place failed. When the Assamese army was defeated by the Burmese army in 1822, it came under the conrol of the Burmese province. After the First Anglo-Burmese war in 1824, a part of Assam became a part of the British territory. Little by little the whole of Assam came under British rule. After the Indian independence it became a separate state having 27 districts and with legislature containing 126 seats.

The state spreads over an area of 78,438 square kilometers. About 35.48% of the total area is covered by forests. The Brahmaputra River and Barak River flow through the state. The natural resources of Assam are petroleum, coal, limestone, sillimanites, clay, feldspar, natural gas and magnetic quartzite. The deciduous forests, bamboo forests, tropical rainforests and wetlands cover the forest area. The important species of animals found here are Bengal Florican, Black breasted Parrotbill, Pygmy Hog, Great Adjutant, Jerdon’s Babbler, Hoolock Gibbon and 820 varieties of birds.
