Overview

Bangladesh, a small country in South East Asia not a very mordenized country, yet full of culture and history; where people strugle for survival, yet full of love and joy; pollution in some cities, yet the whole country is still green and beautiful. For some it's just another country, but for some it's our motherland. Very young country with much to give this world. Green Bangladesh is the land of the free with red blooded people just like you and I.

Bangladesh came into existence in 1971 when Bengali East Pakistan seceded from its union with West Pakistan. About a third of this extremely poor country floods annually during the monsoon rainy season, hampering economic development.
