Hi. "Tidal wave" suggests a wave associated with the ebbs and flows related to the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun. These rises and falls relative to mean sea level are periodic and easily predictable. But the enormous wave generated by an earthquake is probably even less easy to predict than an earthquake and of no regular (that is, periodic) recurrence that anyone knows of. But I think "tsunami" is not too bad a name for such earthquake-generated waves as tsunami does not suggest any strong link with the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun.

The first consequence that the partition of India had was the relocation of between 14-16 million people. Hindu and Sikhs who lived in the area that is now Pakistan moved to the territory of India, while Muslims in Indian territory followed the opposite route. This had an impact not only on the lives of the migrants, but also on the culture of the new nations.

Another effect was that the population of Pakistan was extremely homogeneous in terms of religious identity. Less than 2% of its population was not Muslim by 1951. In turn, this complicated the political situation of Muslims in India.

Finally, a consequence of the partition is the fact that there are still disputed territories between the two nations. One of this is the region of Kashmir, which interests both nations mainly because of its economic significance.

m_a_m_a [10]

Since their migration from the the northwestern part of India, and through Central Asia and the Middle East came to Europe, the Roma (also reffered to as Tsigani or Gjupci) manged to keep their cultural traits, and avoid assimilation.

This was due to their nomadic lifestyle, which contributed to a relative cultural isolation, and keeping the tradition in their circles. Most of the Romas, until recently had nomadic lifestyle, and even though nowadays most of them are settled, because they tend to live together and form close communities, they still manage to preserve their culture.
