NOT ONCE has this article mentioned NEPAL.

Buddha was born in Nepal. Omission of these facts in mainstream articles like these has robbed Nepal of its history.

I'm confused why that troubles you. Does every article concerning Buddha have to mention his birthplace? Or to generalize, does every article about any significant historical figure have to mention their birthplace?

Well written articles will provide only relevant details. Exhaustive details can be found in encyclopaedias.

Sadly most people might not even see Nepal as different from India.
