NAGALAND (NORTHEAST INDIA) : TOWNS & VILLAGES Nagaland joined the Indian Union on 1st December, 1963. This hilly state has a population of only about 1.9 million : these few people are composed of 16 different major tribes. Since 1947 Naga insurgents have battled for an independent Nagaland but failed. Some remote areas are still partially under rebel control. Nagaland’s capital, in the South of the state, is scattered across a series of forested ridges and hilltops. Other main cities are Dimapur (west), Mokokchung & Wokha (center), Mon (north). Mon region (Konyak tribe) is the most traditional one, with a lot of still traditional remote villages.
