Bangladesh ( / ˈ b ɑː ŋ ɡ l ə d ɛ ʃ /  ( listen ) or / b æ ŋ ɡ l ə ˈ d ɛ ʃ /  ( listen ) ; Bengali : বাংলাদেশ ), officially the People's Republic of Bangladesh ( Bangla : গণপ্রজাতন্ত্রী বাংলাদেশ Gônoprojatontri Bangladesh ) is a sovereign state located in South Asia . It is bordered by India on all sides except for a small border with Burma (Myanmar) to the far southeast and by the Bay of Bengal to the south. The capital (and largest city) is Dhaka , also it is the hub of all cultural, political and religious affairs. Together with the Indian state of West Bengal , it makes up the ethno-linguistic region of Bengal . The name Bangladesh means "Country of Bengal" in the official Bengali language . The borders of present-day Bangladesh were established with the partition of Bengal and India in 1947, when the region became East Pakistan , part of the newly formed nation of Pakistan . However, it was separated from the western wing by 1,600 km (994 mi) of Indian territory. Due to political exclusion, ethnic and linguistic discrimination, and economic neglect by the politically-dominant West Pakistan, popular agitation grew against West Pakistan and led to the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971, which succeeded after Pakistan surrendered to Freedom Fighters of Bangladesh, and her ally an Indian Brigade in Dhaka . After independence, the new state endured famines, natural disasters and widespread poverty, as well as political turmoil and military coups . The restoration of democracy in 1991 has been followed by relative calm and economic progress.
