Bengali freedom struggle
The Bengali freedom struggle refers to various movements and wars over the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries aimed at liberating the ethno-linguistic region of Bengal from colonial rule and later from ruling establishments located outside historic Bengali territory. During the 20th Century, Bengali nationalism developed and emerged as a popular political ideology glorifying the Bengali people as a distinctive cultural and linguistic nation.
