HISTORY It is believed that Bhutan was
inhabited as early as 2000 B.C. due to the presence of early stone implements discovered in the region.
Historians have theorized that the state of Lhomon (southern darkness), or Monyul ("Dark Land", a reference to the Monpa, the aboroginal peoples of Bhutan) may have existed between 500 BC and AD 600.
Budhism was first introduced to Bhutan in the 7th century AD.
Until the early 17th century, Bhutan existed as a patchwork of minor warring fiefdoms, when the area was unified by the Tibetan lama and military leader Ngawang Namgyal, who had fled religious persecution in Tibet.
In the 18th century, the Bhutanese invaded and occupied the kingdom of Cooch Behar to the south. In 1772, Cooch Behar appealed to the British East India Company which assisted them in ousting the Bhutanese and later in attacking Bhutan itself in 1774.
In 1907, an epochal year for the country, Ugyen Wangchuck was unanimously chosen as the hereditary king of the country by an assembly of leading Buddhist monks, government officials, and heads of important families.
