Mithila (मिथिला)
Mithila is an ancient cultural region of South Nepal and North India lying between
the lower ranges of the Himalayas and the Ganges River. The Nepal border cuts across
the top fringe of this region. The Gandak and Kosi Rivers are rough western and
eastern boundaries of Mithila. The Ramayana records a dynastic marriage between
Prince Rama of Ayodhya and Sita, the daughter of Raja Janak of Mithila.
