As you hear the word "Bangladesh", wasn't being called by this name right before 1971. Ordinarily, Pakistan had two parts before Bangladesh became independent. In the past, people used to call it "East Pakistan" instead of calling "Bangladesh". It was the time of 16 December 1971 when East Pakistan became liberated from Pakistan.

Then it became as newly independent state and got the name "Bangladesh". And Bangladesh is the only country in the world who fought for her mother's
language. It was a bloody liberation war that took thirty hundred thousands lives within just nine months. The previous story was too long to talk about.
