Its map was chartered by Sir Cyril Radcliffe during the creation of Pakistan and India in 1947, when the region became East Pakistan, part of the newly formed nation of Pakistan. Due to political exclusion and economic exploitation by the politically dominant West Pakistan, popular agitation grew against West Pakistan and led to the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971, after the Bangladeshi Declaration of Independence on 26 March 1971. With the intervention of the Indian Army, the war came to an end on 16 December 1971 with the surrender of the Pakistan Army at Ramna Race Course.

In early times the Barisal region was composed of an amalgamation of marshlands formed by the merging of islands brought into existence and built up by alluvial soils washed down the great channels of the combined Brahmaputra-Ganges-Meghna river systems.
In the early 13th century, when Muhammad bin Tughluq completely conquered eastern Bengal, Hindu chieftains from northwest Bengal were dislodged from power and they dispersed over Barisal region and founded the kingdom of Bakla under the Chandra dwip Raj family (Bakla-Chandra dwip is the name used in their papers). Here Hindu chieftains reestablished themselves along the banks of the great rivers and forest islands, far from the reach of Turkish cavalry.

Bogra is famous for its historical values with Pundravardhana as former capital, which is now known as Mahasthangarh.[citation needed]Bogra Cantonment is located in Bogra District.
The Bogra District occupies an important place in the legendary and the earlier historical annals of Bengal. In the ancient period, it was a part of the territory of the Pundras or Paundras, which was known by the name of Pundravardhana. Pundravardhana was one of the kingdoms of Eastern India and was separated by the stream of Karatoya from the more easterly kingdom of Prag-Jyotisha or Kamrupa. The name, Pundravardhana, occurs frequently in the Mahabharata, Ramayana and the various Puranas. According to the Mahabharata and the Puranas, Vasudeva, a powerful prince of the Pundra family, is said to have ruled over Pundravardhana as far back as 1280 BC. The claims of the district to antiquity, however, rests chiefly on association which centre round the old fortified town, now known as Mahasthangarh.

Chittagong
Chittagong (Bengali: চট্টগ্রাম, Chôţţogram) is a commerce and industry hub, and a port city, in southeastern Bangladesh and the capital of an eponymous district and division. Built on the banks of the Karnaphuli River, the city is home to Bangladesh's busiest seaport and has a population of over 5.5 million, making it the second largest city in the country.
A trading post since the 9th century, Chittagong has a multicultural heritage of Islamic, Hindu and Buddhist traditions, as the result of different waves of settlements throughout the Middle Ages and well into the start of the British Raj. A few parts of Chittagong were developed in the early 20th century under the British to accommodate a railway hub. The city also became a focal point for revolutionary activities against the British, notably the armed uprising led by Surya Sen in 1930. It was also an important military base and supply point for Allied forces during the Burma Campaign in World War II. After the partition of India in 1947, Chittagong became part of East Pakistan. It was then that several key outlying areas were included into the city of Chittagong, including Agrabad, a modern commercial centre today. Chittagong regained prominence as an important investment destination and sea port in the eastern part of a newly independent country. In 1971, as East Pakistanis rebelled against West Pakistan’s refusal to accept results of the 1970 Pakistan General Election, the declaration of East Pakistan's secession into Bangladesh was announced in Chittagong. The city went onto witness atrocities and naval blockades during the liberation war that followed. Chittagong's development has been heavily affected by neglectfulness by the government, and centralization of the capital has taken toll to the cities development and growth.

During the 17th century, the region also faced a lot of attacks by Portuguese pirates. The Mughals established Chittagong as a district in 1666. The Chittagong Hill Tracts were separated from Chittagong in 1860. After the liberation of Bangladesh, Cox's Bazar was separated into a district in 1984.

Khulna Royal Bengals had to wait until their final league game to confirm a place in the semifinals and they completed the job in style, beating Sylhet Royals by 69 runs. They go into the final four as the second best team in the competition. Khulna should be confident against Dhaka Gladiators, who have misfired with the bat for most of the tournament. Dhaka have Mohammad Ashraful, Imran Nazir and Azhar Mahmood in the top-order but they haven't performed to expectation. With the addition of Shahid Afridi and Saeed Ajmal, however, Dhaka's bowling attack is stronger. Khulna will rely on the all-round abilities of Shakib Al Hasan, Dwayne Smith and Andre Russell, while Nasir Hossain will be expected to play a major role with the bat. Azhar Mahmood will lead Dhaka's opening salvo with both bat and ball. He may not be as young as Smith, Russell or Shakib, but he's still got it with the new ball and against the new ball. Khulna have relied on their captain Shakib Al Hasan despite the presence of bigger Twenty20 names in their line-up. Shakib will once again have to lead from the front, especially with his batting, since Khulna have been flat at times too.

Khulna Royal Bengals had to wait until their final league game to confirm a place in the semifinals and they completed the job in style, beating Sylhet Royals by 69 runs. They go into the final four as the second best team in the competition. Khulna should be confident against Dhaka Gladiators, who have misfired with the bat for most of the tournament. Dhaka have Mohammad Ashraful, Imran Nazir and Azhar Mahmood in the top-order but they haven't performed to expectation. With the addition of Shahid Afridi and Saeed Ajmal, however, Dhaka's bowling attack is stronger. Khulna will rely on the all-round abilities of Shakib Al Hasan, Dwayne Smith and Andre Russell, while Nasir Hossain will be expected to play a major role with the bat. Azhar Mahmood will lead Dhaka's opening salvo with both bat and ball. He may not be as young as Smith, Russell or Shakib, but he's still got it with the new ball and against the new ball. Khulna have relied on their captain Shakib Al Hasan despite the presence of bigger Twenty20 names in their line-up. Shakib will once again have to lead from the front, especially with his batting, since Khulna have been flat at times too.

In the southern part of the delta lies the Sundarban, the world's largest mangrove forest. The city of Khulna is in the northern part of the district, and is mainly an expansion of trade centers close to the Rupsha and Bhairob rivers.Kapotakkh river is important in khulna.
The annual average temperature for Khulna is 35.5 °C with a record low of 10 °C.
Economy[link]
Like the other big cities of Bangladesh, notably Dhaka and Chittagong, Khulna is undergoing a major transformation, due to its immensely growing population and its status as Bangladesh's third largest city. Because of its strategic location of only 45 km from the port of Mongla, Khulna is considered as a port city like Chittagong. Khulna is known as the city of shrimp, because 75% of shrimp exported from Bangladesh are cultivated in the Khulna zone. It is also known for its lobster, prawn, catfish, and crab. Khulna has some heavy and medium industries like Khulna Hardboard Mills, Bangladesh Oxygen Company, Khulna Oxygen Company, Platinum Jubilee Jute Mills, Star Jute Mills, Dada(Now Dhaka) Match Factory and Khulna Ship Yard Ltd.
