A wild boar being cut up in the forest after it has been hunted by poachers in the forests of Arunachal Pradesh, India. Arunachal Pradesh (/ˌɑrəˌnɑːtʃəl prəˈdɛʃ/) is a state of India. Located in northeast India, Arunachal Pradesh borders the states of Assam and Nagaland to the south, and shares international borders with Bhutan in the west, Myanmar in the east and the People's Republic of China (PRC) in the north. Itanagar is the capital of the state. The northern border of Arunachal Pradesh follows the McMahon Line, a border delineated in the Simla Accord that was signed by the United Kingdom and Tibet in 1914 but not by China (as Tibet was not Chinese-controlled at that time). The People's Republic of China claims the northern portion of Arunachal Pradesh as South Tibet. The Republic of China (Taiwan) claims the whole of 'China' within its official borders and includes Arunachal Pradesh in its claims. Arunachal Pradesh means "land of the dawn-lit mountains". Literally it means "land of the rising sun" (Sanskrit: Arun: Sun, Pradesh: state, province or region) in reference to its position as the easternmost state of India. It is also known as the "Orchid State of India" and the "Paradise of the Botanists".It is the biggest among the group of eastern states which are commonly known as Seven Sisters. Like other parts of Northeast India, a majority of the people native to the state are of Tibeto-Burman origin.[citation needed] A large and increasing number of migrants have reached Arunachal Pradesh from many other parts of India, although no reliable population count of the migrant population has been conducted, and percentage estimates of total population accordingly vary widely. Arunachal Pradesh has the largest number of regional languages among Indian states.
