Buddhists represent about 7% of the world's population. People practice Buddhism throughout the world but most are located in east and southeast Asia in China, Nepal, India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Korea, and Japan.

Siddhartha Gautama was born circa 623 BCE. He traveled throughout India teaching his ideas about inner peace and how to end suffering. He is known as the Buddha. In the 3rd century B.C., Ashoka the Great, the Mauryan Indian emperor, made Buddhism the state religion of India. While Buddhism in India eventually declined, over the next few centuries, Buddhism spread beyond India to much of east and southeast Asia.
