Goa is India‘s smallest state.
It is located on India's southern coast.
The state of Goa has a total size of 3,702 square kilometers (1,429 square miles).
As of 2021, it had a population of 1.6 million people, making it India's fourth-smallest state by population.
The capital of Goa is Panaji. It is located in the Tiswadi sub-district on the shores of the Mandovi River estuary. Panaji is Goa's largest urban agglomeration, with a population of 1 lakh 20,000 in the metropolitan region.
The 105-kilometer coastline of mainland Goa is characterized by sandy beaches, estuaries, and promontories.
Low, forested plateaus blend with the Western Ghats' wooded slopes in the interior, which climb to over 1,220 metres on the state's eastern border.
The Mandavi and the Zuvari are the two major rivers, with the island of Goa lying between their mouths (Ilhas). The island is triangular in shape, with the apex (known as the cape) being a rocky headland that divides Goa's harbour into two anchorages. Although Goa's history extends back to prehistoric times, the current state of Goa was only created in 1987. Despite being India's smallest state in terms of land, Goa has a vast and varied history. It has many parallels to Indian history, particularly in terms of colonial influences and a multi-cultural aesthetic.
The Usgalimal rock engravings, which date from the upper palaeolithic or mesolithic periods, show some of India's oldest signs of human settlement. During the Iron Age, the Mauryan and Satavahana Empires ruled over modern-day Goa.
Goa was ruled by the Kadamba dynasty, Vijayanagara Empire, Bahmani Sultanate, and Bijapur Sultanate during the medieval period.
In 1510, the Portuguese invaded Goa and defeated the Sultanate of Bijapur. The Portuguese occupation lasted approximately 450 years and had a significant impact on Goan culture, food, and architecture.
