Loved that one. But since the Assamese were left out, allow me to fill in:

One Assamese is a Kharkhowa ( Khar is an alkaline fluid, created by draining water thru ash from burnt , dried banana plant roots. It is the primary fluid in a soupy dish, favorite with the Assamese. Historically the dish provided much needed electrolytic balance to the salt-starved , landlocked populace ).

Two Assamese makes an ULFA battalion. Three Assamese is a Bangladeshi ousting vigilante group and four Assamese is an union of wanna-be-Indians :-).
