    • Tibet is a region in Central Asia, situated on the Tibetan Plateau, which is one of the highest and largest plateaus in the world. Historically, Tibet has been home to a unique culture, with deep spiritual and religious roots. The region is known for its stunning landscapes, rich history, and distinctive Buddhist traditions.

      Tibet has a complex political history. The region was once an independent nation with its own government, headed by the Dalai Lama, who is both the spiritual and political leader of the Tibetan people. In 1950, the People's Republic of China (PRC) invaded Tibet, and in 1951, the Tibetan government was forced to sign the Seventeen Point Agreement, which effectively incorporated Tibet into China.

      Since then, Tibet has been an autonomous region within China, known as the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR). However, the Chinese government's policies and actions in Tibet have been widely criticized for suppressing the local culture, religion, and human rights of the Tibetan people. Many Tibetans, including the current Dalai Lama (the 14th), have sought refuge in other countries, particularly India, where they continue to advocate for Tibetan autonomy and the preservation of their unique culture and identity.

Clark, Gregory, "In fear of China", 1969, saying: ' Tibet, although enjoying independence at certain periods of its history, had never been recognized by any single foreign power as an independent state. The closest it has ever come to such recognition was the British formula of 1943: suzerainty, combined with autonomy and the right to enter into diplomatic relations. '
