The Sanskrit-speaking branch of the ancient Aryans invaded India (mostly in northern India) and intermarried with the indigenous dark white races, such as Dravittus (some remained pure-blooded), and established a caste system, with the upper castes being Aryans and their descendants.
There are many branches of the Aryans, and it cannot be said that they are the ancestors of the Germans, but the Aryans have a branch that is the ancestor of the Germans, and most of the Germans are Germans, but there are still differences between nations and countries.

In the mid-19th century, thanks to the active advocacy of Comte de Gobineau and his protégé Houston Stewart Chamberlain, there was a term of "Aryan race". The members of the so-called "Aryan race" were people who spoke Indo-European languages, who were conducive to all human progress, and who claimed superiority over the Semites, the yellow race, and the black race. Adherents of Aryanism regarded the Nordic and Germanic peoples as members of the purest "Aryan race".
This argument was abandoned by anthropologists in the 1930s and 50s, but it was used by Hitler and the Nazis as a basis for German policy to exterminate Jews, Roma (Gypsies) and all other non-Aryans.
In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, many white supremacist groups adopted Aryan as their ideological label. Because of this usage and in relation to Nazism, the term has a derogatory connotation (see white supremacy).

In fact, the Aryans in Germany do not have a high degree of existence, and for politicians, the real goal is to use the strength of national cohesion for themselves, and as for what nation does not matter to politicians, the most important thing is to achieve the goal

In the early 2000s B.C., a group of Aryans who lived in the western steppes of Eastern Europe marched west along the Danube, crossing the Alps into Italy, known as the Latins. The Latins were the most famous of these migratory peoples. At the same time, other Aryans continued to migrate in both the western and northern directions, forming the Celts of Western Europe and the Germanic peoples of Northern Europe.

<> "Are the Aryans part of the present-day Indian race?"
There are still very few in India proper, and the vast majority have either migrated or integrated into other tribes. The Aryans (Skt. : ry, "noble") were an ancient tribe of the Caucasus and Central Asia who spoke the Indo-European language family.
Around 2000 BCE, the tribe split into two branches, the first settling on the Iranian plateau and the second in northern India.
In Iran, they merged with the ancient Elamites and later became the Persians, Methians, Scythians, and so on. In India, they expelled the Dravidas to the south, created the Vedic culture and established the caste system, bringing the Indo-Jana Hand language to India.
The indigenous peoples of India became the lowest strata of the caste system, and the Aryans presented themselves as a superior race, but as time passed, ethnic integration was inevitable.

The Aryans originally came home in the South Russian steppes, and later migrated from this region to Asia and Europe. One of the Indian Iranians settled in the plains of the two rivers (Amu Darya and Syr Darya) in Central Asia after a period of wandering. Around the 14th century BCE, one of the Indo-Iranians entered the subcontinent and became known as the Indo-Aryans (only Aryans in ancient Indian texts); And the other entered Iran, called the Iranian Aryans.
Indo: The Aryans originally settled in the Seven Rivers Valley (or Five Rivers) in the upper Indus River. At that time, animal husbandry was dominant, agriculture was only a part-time business, urban civilization had not yet appeared, and most of the hymns of the Rig Veda were compiled in this region. The upper limit of the date is around 1200 B.C., or earlier.
After invading the Seven Rivers and conquering the indigenous population, they lived in the era of military democracy at the end of the primitive society, and then they expanded to the Ganges valley in the east and then to parts of South India. After they entered these areas, the primitive tribal organization gradually disintegrated and tribal confederations emerged. There was constant war between the alliances.
Around the beginning of the 1st millennium BC, with the advent of iron tools, a small number of advanced tribes of the Indo-Aryans began to transition to the state. By the 6th century BCE, more than 20 small states had been formed in the Ganges Valley, the Indus Valley, and parts of South India, entering the era known in the history of the Indian subcontinent as the "Sixteen Kingdoms", or Age of Nations. During the expansion of the Indo-Aryans to the east and south, the local population was either conquered or dispersed, and they became the main inhabitants of the ancient Indian subcontinent.
At that time, the Varna system was just emerging, and the religion was still in its infancy, and it was polytheistic worship.

If you count the time when the Aryans entered North India, it has been more than 3,000 years. Of course, there are no pure-blooded Aryans in India, and those who are fair-skinned can be regarded as Aryan descendants. Base paddle cover.
The Aryans originally lived between the Caucasus and Central Asia, wandering the Eurasian continent as a nomadic people, and around 1500 BC, one of them crossed the Pamir Plateau into North India and conquered the local Dravidians. After thousands of years of conquest and annexation, almost the entire subcontinent was controlled by the Aryans.
Although India has experienced several foreign conquests in the following millennia, the civilization established by the Aryans at the beginning still influenced India, including writing, religion, social class, etc.
The Aryans used the caste system to firmly bind the various social classes, and used the Vedic religion (which later evolved into Hinduism) of the ancient Aryans to solidify this social stratification from the beliefs, the Aryans belonged to the three higher castes of Brahmins, Kshatriyas, and Vaishyas, and the conquered Dravidians could only belong to the Shudras, and after thousands of years of evolution, the culturally backward Dravidians were accustomed to this arrangement of fate from generation to generation, and regarded this arrangement as a divine arrangement, They always look forward to being reborn into a higher caste family in the next life, which is used to atone for their sins.
We can see that Indians are generally mild-tempered, casual, and lack of positive spirit, which is also the result of thousands of years of Hindu influence, and even India's independence was won by the "non-violent non-cooperation movement", you can imagine thousands of Indians lining up to be shot by the British but not resisting, just waiting for the colonialists to find out one day that their conscience could not stand it and get out.
This caste system has also ensured the stability of Indian society for thousands of years, the rulers are not worried that the people at the bottom will rebel, your low caste is a sin in the previous life, while the high caste is a blessing for good in the previous life, so it is not good to reincarnate, the low caste can only blame themselves, and the common people can only hope for happiness in the next life, obediently obey and do good deeds, and they will no longer rebel against the Aryans.
The key is the cultural backwardness of the aborigines!

When the Aryans entered the Indian subcontinent, they were at the end of their tribal society and were dominated by animal husbandry. After the occupation of the Indus Valley, they still stuck to the tradition of nomadic life at first, but gradually absorbed the advanced local culture and production technology, learned agricultural production, and knew how to use river water to irrigate the land. So, it was settled.

It should be said that not exactly. Indians are probably about 40% Aryan in their genes.
The Aryans, originally an ancient nomadic people of the South Russian steppe, gradually migrated south to conquer the South Asian subcontinent, and merged with the locals to form the unique South Asian subcontinent people today.
And today's Russians and Poles, Aryans, have about 50% genes.
Therefore, the ancestors of the Indians were not all Aryans, but also the indigenous people who were indigenous before the Aryans migrated to the subcontinent.

Aryans, translated as Aryans, were originally an ancient people in the steppes of the southern Ural Mountains of Russia and one of the three ancient nomadic peoples in the world. The post-Nazis distorted the concept of Aryans, defining the blond, blue-eyed Germanic people of the five Nordic countries and Scandinavia as typical Aryan traits, but in fact the two are unrelated and far apart. The Nazis believed that the typical traits of the ancient Aryans should:
Long skull and narrow face, blonde hair and blue eyes, small eye spacing, superior intelligence, excellent physique, for the most noble race in the world. In fact, the typical trait of the ancient Aryans should be: black hair and brown eyes.
However, because some Slavs also lived in high latitudes such as the Arctic Circle and were blonde, they were not as strongly rejected by the Nazis as one might think, and during World War II, the Nazis chose blond and blue-eyed Soviet orphans to be Germanized. Four major races: Asians (yellows), Caucasians (Caucasians), Africans (blacks), Oceanians (browns).
The Aryans reached the areas they occupied at that time through one or rather successive migrations from outside the Indian subcontinent. The final stage of this migration could not have been too far from the beginning of the Rigveda, but at the same time it must have been a sufficient period of time. >>>More
I think it is, linguistically speaking, German, Hindi, English, and Spanish are all Indo-European languages, and Indo-European languages are Aryan languages in ancient times, and they are divided into Hindi, German, Spanish, and English.
The Aryans included Germanic, Slavic, Indian.
The Germanic peoples in turn included the British, Americans, Germans, Norsemen, and Dutch. Goths, etc. (chivalrous Germanic only Germans). >>>More
Aryans are Caucasians, a general term for all Caucasians, not just a nation, but from Eastern Europe and then continue to spread to the South Asian subcontinent, Scandinavia, Spain, and the Mediterranean, so now all Caucasians are descendants of Aryans, including Indians, Arabs, etc., etc., so if you want to ask what religion the Aryans believe, it is difficult to say, the most primitive Aryans believe in polytheism, but I don't know what the name is, But the Aryans who invaded India later believed in Hinduism, while the Arabian Peninsula believed in polytheism at first, and later had monotheistic Judaism, Catholicism, Islam, etc., which was very complicated.
