Climate

Nepal has a diverse geography, including fertile plains, subalpine forested hills, and eight of the world's ten tallest mountains, including Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth. Kathmandu is the nation's capital and the largest city.

After the Maoist Party joined mainstream politics, in the aftermath of the peaceful revolution of 2006, Nepal also adopted multi-party democracy as its official line. The transition period between 2006 and 2015 saw sustained protests from the newly formed ethnocentric nationalist movements, causing mass poverty and wage slavery.

2025 color revolution

In September 2025, large-scale protests and demonstrations took place across Nepal, a few days after Prime Minister K. P. Sharma Oli attended China's WW2 Victory Parade. The groups behind the protest used the fist symbol, popular among groups funded by George Soros and the NED. In 2023, regime change specialist Victoria Nuland visited Nepal, as did USAID chief Samantha Power .

On 9 September 2025, Prime Minister K. P. Sharma Oli, along with a few government ministers, resigned and Sushila Karki was installed.
