Nepal ndi dziko lamapiri lopanda mpanda lomwe lili kumwera chakumwera kwa Himalaya, kumalire ndi China kumpoto ndi India kumadzulo, kumwera ndi kum'mawa. Mapiri amapezeka ku Nepal, ndipo Mount Everest (wotchedwa Sagarmatha ku Nepal) ili pamalire pakati pa China ndi Nepal. Dzikoli lagawika magawo atatu anyengo: mapiri ataliatali akumpoto, malo otentha apakatikati ndi madera akummwera kwa kotentha. Kutentha kotsika kwambiri m'nyengo yozizira kumpoto ndi -41 ℃, ndipo kotentha kwambiri kumwera chilimwe ndi 45 ℃. Malowa ndi okwera kumpoto komanso otsika kumwera, ndipo kutalika kwakusiyana ndikosowa padziko lapansi. Ambiri mwa madera amapiri, ndipo malo opitilira 1 km pamwamba pa nyanja ndi theka la dera lonselo. Wozunguliridwa ndi mapiri kum'mawa, kumadzulo ndi kumpoto, Nepal amadziwika kuti "dziko lamapiri" kuyambira nthawi zakale. Mitsinjeyo ndi yambiri komanso yaphokoso, ndipo yambiri imachokera ku Tibet, China, ndikulowera ku Indian Ganges kumwera. Chifukwa cha malo ovuta, nyengo imasiyanasiyana mdziko lonselo. Dzikoli lagawika magawo atatu anyengo: mapiri ataliatali akumpoto, malo otentha apakatikati ndi madera akummwera kwa kotentha. Kutentha kotsika kwambiri m'nyengo yozizira kumpoto ndi -41 ℃, ndipo kotentha kwambiri kumwera chilimwe ndi 45 ℃. Nthawi yomweyo mdziko muno, pomwe zigwa zakumwera zimatentha kwambiri, likulu la Kathmandu ndi Pakra Valley lodzaza ndi maluwa komanso kasupe, pomwe dera lakumpoto lakumapiri nthawi yozizira ndimatalala achisanu.

Mtundu woterewu udawonekera ku Nepal zaka zana zapitazo, ndipo pambuyo pake ma pennenti awiriwa adalumikizidwa kuti akhale mbendera ya ku Nepal lero. Amapangidwa ndimakona atatu okhala ndi gawo laling'ono lakumtunda ndi gawo lokulirapo lakumunsi.Pambuyo pake pamakhala yofiira ndipo malire a mbendera ndi a buluu. Chofiira ndi mtundu wa duwa ladziko Red Rhododendron, ndipo buluu likuyimira mtendere. Mbendera yakumtunda yayitali imakhala ndi mwezi ndi nyenyezi zoyimira zoyera, zoyimira banja lachifumu; mawonekedwe oyera a dzuwa mu mbendera ya m'munsi ya katatu amachokera ku logo ya banja la Rana. Dongosolo la dzuwa ndi mwezi zikuyimiranso chikhumbo cha anthu aku Nepal kuti dzikolo lipulumuke monga dzuwa ndi mwezi. Mitundu iwiri ya mbendera imayimira nsonga ziwiri za Himalaya.

Nepal ili ndi anthu 26.42 miliyoni (kuyambira Julayi 2006). Nepal ndi dziko lamitundu yambiri lokhala ndi mafuko opitilira 30 kuphatikiza Rye, Limbu, Sunuvar, Damang, Magal, Gurung, Sherba, Newar, ndi Tharu. Anthu 86.5% amakhulupirira Chihindu, ndikupangitsa kuti likhale dziko lokhalo padziko lapansi lomwe limawona Chihindu ngati chipembedzo chawo. 7.8% amakhulupirira Chibuda, 3.8% amakhulupirira Chisilamu, ndipo 2.2% amakhulupirira zipembedzo zina. Chinepali ndicho chinenero chawo, ndipo Chingerezi chimagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri pamaphunziro apamwamba.

Nepal ndi dziko laulimi, 80% ya anthu amalamulidwa ndi ulimi, chuma chimabwerera m'mbuyo, ndipo ndi amodzi mwamayiko otukuka kwambiri padziko lapansi. Mbewu zazikulu ndi mpunga, chimanga, ndi tirigu, ndipo mbewu zomwe zimasungidwa makamaka nzimbe, mbewu za mafuta, ndi fodya. Zinthu zachilengedwe zimaphatikizapo mkuwa, chitsulo, aluminium, zinc, phosphorous, cobalt, quartz, sulfure, lignite, mica, marble, limestone, magnesite, ndi nkhuni. Migodi yochepa chabe ndi yomwe imapezeka. Zida zamagetsi zamagetsi ndizolemera, ndimayendedwe amagetsi a ma kilowatts a 83 miliyoni. Nepal ili ndi mafakitale ofooka, ochepa, makina ochepa, komanso chitukuko chochedwa. Makamaka amaphatikizapo kupanga shuga, nsalu, nsapato zachikopa, kukonza chakudya, ndi zina zambiri. Palinso ntchito zina zamanja zakumidzi komanso mafakitale opanga manja. Nyengo yosangalatsa komanso kukongola kwachilengedwe kumapangitsa dziko la Nepal kukhala lolemera pazinthu zokopa alendo. Nepal ili kumapiri akumwera kwa mapiri a Himalaya. Kuphatikiza apo, ku Nepal kuli mapiri opitilira 200 a 6000 mpaka 8000 metres, zomwe ndizokhumba kwa okwera mapiri. Cholowa chambiri cha Nepal ndi zipembedzo zakale komanso nyumba zapamwamba zimapezeka kwa Ahindu ndi Abuda. Paulendo, ilinso ndi malo osungira nyama zakutchire okwana 14, omwe atha kugwiritsidwa ntchito poyenda komanso kukasaka malo okaona alendo. Mu 1995, panali alendo 360,000 ku Nepal.
