The Culture in Buraqistan: The Mixing of Two Seas and Seven Rivers

Buraqistan's proclaimed domain reaches far wide; from the suburbs of Kabul to the fishing Villages of Kalikata. The State, so, is extremely diverse. 7 Major Relegions: Hinduism, Islam, Sikhism, Budhhism, Jainism, Zoroastrianism and Christianity, along with some minor ones, like the Baha'i and Babism.

The two main Relegions: Islam and Hinduism—constitute most of the population. With this, a lot of practices of each have mixed together, along with many indigineous practices.

The Architecture itself incorporates indigineous and natural items of the region: The Lotus, The Rose, and so on. It takes ideas from Mandala Indigineous Art, and also incorporates ideas of Persian/Ottoman Tezhib and Chinese illumination.

Food, as well, is an important part of culture. As the Muslims are non-vegetarian, and Hindus almost always are vegetarian, there is uniqueness in food too. Unlike places where either Cattle or Fruits grow, Indian Realm, upon which Buraqistan is, had both—along with a resource that only Buraqistan has—spices. So, the foods are rich in spices, usually incorporating dairy products like milk and butter, while the non-vegetarians may put meat in it too. Because of ease of cooking, vegetarian food is common amongst all Buraqistanis, and vegetables are used more than meat in almost all non-veg dishes.

Flatbreads of the land are also very popular. Similar to those of Persia and Egypt, the flatbreads are of many different types–stuffed, oiled, fried, or simply heated on a pan–each, usually, for a different occasion.

Languages also show a great heritage of the people. They incorporate features of many different languages, too. The 5 languages who infulences all other languages are: Sanskrit, Pali, Prakrit, Arabic and Persian. 

Today, the land has one of the most number of languages and scripts. Each unique from the other.

'Zoroastrianism' is that even a religion, I don't think it's major either....

Edit: I did some searches and it's one of the oldest organized faiths but isn't major.
