Hinduism was all over the Asia and some parts in Italy. Pompeii was a ancient city in Italy near Naples city.It was completely covered by volcanic eruption in 79AD and the total city was covered by volcanic lava from mount vesuvi.
Philadelphia university archeological department rediscovered the city in 1960s and it is major tourist attraction in Italy now.
It has temples for Venus,Jupiter,Saturn planet. Those ancient Roman culture were close to Hindu culture. They have rain god,wind god, supreme god and lots of demi gods.
Hinduism is really a long living religion in the world. Azetec religion is another version of Hinduism in Latin America , but it was no more now.
Hinduism is the oldest and most peace loving religion of the world,probably that is the cause why the World don't has any complete Hindu nation on its map.Stupid and corrupt Maoists of Nepal played foul play to divert that nation into their hands,and the people of Nepal were nicesly fooled and trapped.

Sanathana Dharma is called so because it is indestructible and permanent. It survived all the onslaughts by 400 years of Muslim rule and another 400 years of Eng rule. Lakhs of temples were destroyed. But Hindu Dharma survived.
