Mizoram is a region in India. Its folk music is based around the drum and gong, though there is also a long history of flute-playing which is now defunct. The drums are made from a hollow tree trunk and the gongs, made of brass, are similar to those found in Myanmar.
Mizoram is one of the youngest states in the country situated in the north-eastern part of India.
Mizoram is perched like a lone sentinel on the tip of the north eastern border of India.Mizoram is sandwiched between Burma on the east and south, Bangladesh and Tripura in the west and Assam and Manipur to the north.
Mizoram has a highly impressive literacy rate of 88.06%.It is the second highest rate in India.The high literacy rate is attributed to the influence of the church, as Mizos are encouraged to read the Bible from a young age.
