Bangladesh

Bangladesh
Map Bangladesh

Formerly part of Pakistan, Bangladesh came into existence in 1971. It was known as East Pakistan before its independence that was achieved after a bitter civil war with the other part of Pakistan. The war also saw India supporting the cause of Bangladesh. Bangladesh was ruled by the military dictatorship for 15 years. Though 1990 saw the restoration of democracy, the country is still politically volatile.

The topography of Bangladesh is charatcterised by the alluvial plain of the Ganges-Brahmaputra river system - the largest delta in the world. The hill tracts of Chittagong lie to the east of the delta. Flood occurs at regular intervals and people have become used to it. The country witnessed some excessive flooding, as in 1988, 1998 and 2004, which resulted in widespread loss of life and destruction of property.
