Bangladesh was a part Pakistan and known as East Pakistan from 1947 to 1971 after the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947. Later the rise of a pro-democracy movement thrived on Bengali nationalism and self-determination, and eventually resulted in the emergence of Bangladesh as a sovereign and independent nation in 1971 after nine months long liberation war.


The large Muslim population of Bangladesh makes it the third-largest Muslim-majority country. The constitution declares Bangladesh a secular state, while establishing Islam as a state religion.
