Tibet refers to the entity composing of U-Tsang, Kham and Amdo provinces. It should not be confused to mean only the "Tibetan Autonomous Region" (TAR), which is less than half the landmass of Tibet with only one-third of the total Tibetan population.

Land Size: 2.5 million square kilometres, which includes U-Tsang, Kham and Amdo provinces. "Tibet Autonomous Region", consisting of U-Tsang and a small portion of Kham, consists of 1.2 million square kilometres. The bulk of Tibet lies outside the "TAR".

Political Status: Occupied country and without United Nations' representation.

Average Altitude: 4,000 metres or 13,000 feet above sea level.

Tibet was a fully independent country until the Chinese invaded it in 1949. China's violation of Tibet's territorial integrity was denounced as an aggression by virtually all states of the free world, including India. Sadar Vallabhai Patel, the then Deputy Prime Minister of India stated, "...Recent and bitter history (Chinese invasion of Tibet) also tells us that communism is no shield against imperialism and that the communists are as good and as bad imperialists as any other. Chinese ambitions in this respect not only cover the Himalayan slopes on our side but also include important parts of Assam. They have their ambitions in Burma also". Similarly Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia strongly condemned and added, "The government of China has offended not only against international morality but also against India's interests by mobbing into Tibet".
