What individuals and events in history are a source of pride for Bangladesh?
That's very interesting. What about the War of Independence in 1971? Can you tell me more about that as well?
The War of Independence was another pivotal moment in Bangladesh's history. It was a nine-month-long armed conflict between East Pakistan (which later became Bangladesh) and West Pakistan. The violence and atrocities committed by the Pakistani military on the people of East Pakistan led to a mass exodus of refugees into neighboring India. The conflict ended with the liberation of Bangladesh on December 16, 1971. The war and the sacrifice of those who fought for independence are still remembered and celebrated in Bangladesh today.
