Is the largest independent nation on the subcontinent of south asia.

India

Explanation:

South Asia is considered as a sub-continent, as it is lying on a separate plate, though the Indian plate and the Eurasian plate have merged into one landmass. This region of Asia is practically an enormous peninsula in the southern part of the continent, physically separated by the rest of Asia by the Himalayan Mountain Range.

South Asia as a region is consisted of eight countries:

- India

- Pakistan

- Afghanistan

- Bangladesh

- Nepal

- Bhutan

- Sri Lanka

- Maldives

The largest country in South Asia by far is India, with all of the other countries being located around it. This country is actually one of the largest in the world. India is also the country in the region that has by far the largest population, which is actually the second largest in the world.

The country is considered as developing, but it has a very rapid economic development and the GDP is constantly on the rise. It is a country of great potential if managed properly in the coming decades, and maybe it can even become one of the world super powers in the future.
