People who have a low social class are called an outcast. It is of special use in India, where they belong to the lowest caste of all. It should be noted that this social system is framed in Hinduism, the predominant religion in this area, where the Hindu community is divided into four large groups. Outcasts are only allowed to do the toughest or most marginal jobs. Similarly, this is the name given to some geographical points, such as the Paria Peninsula, in Venezuela, a place known for its elegant beauty, and the Gulf of Paria, located in the same country.
The caste system imposed in India mainly focuses on varna, a word that can be translated as " color ". The racial segregation that once existed in the territory was considered a problem during the heyday of Vedic civilization; for 900 years the self-proclaimed arya were prevented from mixing with the aborigines, who outnumbered them. This, prone, would end up creating a kind of stigma for people of darker color, taking away basic rights, such as religious or social rights. It is said that they were isolated in their own communities and, people of a higher caste, avoided contact with the shadows of outcasts at all costs.
Currently, they are called "dalits", and a social revolution in India has allowed them to even govern some of the states.
On the other hand, the Paria Peninsula, formerly known as Tierra de Gracia, is one of the most beautiful tourist spots in Venezuela. In this, beaches, forests and mountains are combined, as well as a rich flora and fauna. The Gulf of Paria, meanwhile, was discovered by Christopher Columbus in one of his many trips to the American continent, where he assigned it the name Gulf of the Whale, a name that was replaced because the population of the mammal disappeared by the hunting. After this, it became known as the sad gulf, later Boca del Dragón or Drago, due to the eddies that form inside it, which had the reputation of being violent.
