Buddhism Originated in India, where Gautama Buddha gained his Enlightement under a tree.

Their major principles was to always speak Truth, never harm any creature, try to help others.

Buddhism also affected other societies as many Hindu followers who were from lower casts joined it immidiately due to discrimination in their own religion.
