Bhutan (/buːˈtɑːn/ (listen); Dzongkha: འབྲུག་ཡུལ་, romanized: Druk Yul [ʈuk̚˩.yː˩]), officially known as the Kingdom of Bhutan (Dzongkha: འབྲུག་རྒྱལ་ཁབ་, romanized: Druk Gyal Khap), is a landlocked country in the Eastern Himalayas. It is bordered by China to the north and India to the south, east and west. Nepal and Bangladesh are located in proximity to Bhutan but do not share a land border. The country has a population of over 754,000 and a territory of 38,394 square kilometers (14,824 sq mi) which ranks 133rd in terms of land area, and 160th in population. Bhutan is a constitutional monarchy with Vajrayana Buddhism as the state religion.
The subalpine Himalayan mountains in the north rise from the country's lush subtropical plains in the south. In the Bhutanese Himalayas, there are peaks higher than 7,000 meters (23,000 ft) above sea level. Gangkhar Puensum is Bhutan's highest peak and may also be the highest unclimbed mountain in the world. The wildlife of Bhutan is notable for its diversity, including the Himalayan takin. The largest city in Bhutan is the capital Thimphu.

It is bordered by China to the north and India to the south, east and west. Nepal and Bangladesh are located in proximity to Bhutan but do not share a land border. The country has a population of over 754,000 and a territory of 38,394 square kilometers (14,824 sq mi) which ranks 133rd in terms of land area, and 160th in population. Bhutan is a constitutional monarchy with Vajrayana Buddhism as the state religion.
The subalpine Himalayan mountains in the north rise from the country's lush subtropical plains in the south. In the Bhutanese Himalayas, there are peaks higher than 7,000 meters (23,000 ft) above sea level. Gangkhar Puensum is Bhutan's highest peak and may also be the highest unclimbed mountain in the world. The wildlife of Bhutan is notable for its diversity, including the Himalayan takin.

Bhutan (Bhutanese: འབྲུག་ཡུལ་; Romaniz.: Dru Ü, [ʈʂɦu yː], lit. "Land of the Dragon"), officially Kingdom of Bhutan (འབྲུག་རྒྱལ་ཁབ་ Druk Gyal Khap), is an inland country located in South Asia, in the far east of the Himalayas. It borders China to the north and India to the south, east and west. Further west it is separated from Nepal by the Indian state of Sikim, while further south it is separated from Bangladesh by the Indian states of Assam and West Bengal. The capital and largest city in Bhutan is Thimbu.
Bhutan existed as a patchwork of small warring manors until the early 17th century, when the lama and military leader Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal, fleeing religious persecution in Tibet, unified the cultivated area and a distinct Bhutanese identity. Later, in the early 20th century, Bhutan came into contact with the British Empire and maintained strong bilateral relations with India over its independence. In 2006, based on a global survey, BusinessWeek magazine ranked Bhutan the happiest country in Asia and the eighth happiest country in the world.
Bhutan's landscape ranges from subtropical plains in the south to sub-alpine heights in the north of the Himalayas, where some peaks exceed an altitude of 7,000 meters. In 1997 the total area was reported as around 46 500 km² and 38 394 km² in 2002.
