Correct Answer: Option C — **Bhutan**. **Bhutan** is conventionally known as **“Land of the Thunder Dragon”**. The name is connected with its indigenous name Druk Yul, commonly translated as Land of the Thunder Dragon; its regional identity is Eastern Himalayas. This combination of nickname, geographical setting and identifying feature makes Option C correct. Geographical epithets are conventional exam expressions rather than official administrative names, so the safest method is to memorise each epithet with its exact place and the physical, cultural or economic reason behind it. Why the other options are incorrect: Option A — **Netherlands**: This place is conventionally associated with **“Land of Tulips”**, linked to its internationally recognised tulip cultivation and flower-growing tradition. Remembering its actual epithet and regional identity—Western Europe—explains the precise difference from the epithet asked in the question. Option B — **Venice**: This place is conventionally associated with **“City of Canals”**, linked to its urban fabric built across islands and connected by an extensive canal network. Remembering its actual epithet and regional identity—Italy—explains the precise difference from the epithet asked in the question. Option D — **Udaipur**: This place is conventionally associated with **“City of Lakes”**, linked to its interconnected historic lakes including Pichola and Fateh Sagar. Remembering its actual epithet and regional identity—Rajasthan, India—explains the precise difference from the epithet asked in the question. Exam Takeaway: Remember **Land of the Thunder Dragon — Bhutan** for quick revision of **Geographical Epithets GK**.
