Assam ( ; Ôxôm ; Asam; Âshám ) is a state in northeastern India. Located south of the eastern Himalayas, Assam comprises the Brahmaputra Valley and the Barak Valley along with the Karbi Anglong and Dima Hasao districts with an area of . Assam, along with Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura, [Sikkim] and Meghalaya, is one of the Eight Sister States. Geographically, Assam and these states are connected to the rest of India via a strip of land in West Bengal called the Siliguri Corridor or "Chicken's Neck". Assam shares an international border with Bhutan and Bangladesh; and its culture, people and climate are similar to those of South-East Asia – comprising the elements in India’s Look East policy. Assam became a part of British India after the British East India Company occupied the region following the First Anglo-Burmese War of 1824–1826.
Assam is known for Assam tea and Assam silk. The first oil well in Asia was drilled here. The state has conserved the one-horned Indian rhinoceros from near extinction, along with the wild water buffalo, pygmy hog, tiger and various species of Asiatic birds. It provides one of the last wild habitats for the Asian elephant. The Assamese economy is aided by wildlife tourism, centred around Kaziranga National Park and Manas National Park which are World Heritage Sites. Sal tree forests are found in the state which, as a result of abundant rainfall, looks green all year round. Assam receives more rainfall compared to most parts of India. This rain feeds the Brahmaputra River, whose tributaries and oxbow lakes provide the region with a hydro- geomorphic and aesthetic environment .
Assam is the Northeastern Indian state.
Assam may also refer to:
- Assam Tea, the tea that are produced in Assam
- Assam silk, the silks that are produced in Assam
- Assam Oil, the erstwhile company (and currently a division of Oil India Company), that was involved in drilling and refining crude oil in Assam
- Colonial Assam Province, a province of British India
- Kingdom of Assam, the Ahom Kingdom, as it was known in medieval times
- Assam Company, the British company that administered Colonial Assam in the 19th century
