From the Paper:

"Tibet is an area of about 2.5 million square kilometers lying at the center of Asia with an average altitude of 13,000 feet above sea level. It is not a separate country as it was annexed by China in 1949-50 after the Communist Revolution. Tibetan people, with a distinct culture and language have lived in the region and the surrounding areas for over a thousand years. Despite the attempt of the Chinese to suppress and obliterate the separate identity of their identity since they occupied the region, Tibetans have struggled to maintain their identity under the spiritual leadership of Dalai Lama who lives in exile in India since 1959."
