History of Bangladesh

The history of Bangladesh dates back over four millennia to the Chalcolithic period. The region's early history was characterized by a succession of Hindu and Buddhist kingdoms and empires that fought for control over the Bengal region. Islam arrived in the 8th century and gradually became the dominant religion from the early 13th century with conquests led by Bakhtiyar Khalji and the activities of Sunni missionaries, like Shah Jalal.
