Get Nebula using my link for 40% off an annual subscription: go.nebula.tv/cogito Watch Modern Conflicts exclusively on Nebula: nebula.tv/modernconflicts?ref=cogito ONLY IN SEPTEMBER: Get a lifetime membership to Nebula for only $300: go.nebula.tv/lifetime?ref=cogito MORE ON LIFETIME MEMBERSHIPS: For the month of September Nebula is offering a lifetime membership deal. The deal is you pay $300 once and get access to Nebula forever, no matter what, no takesy backsies. This isn’t the most economical deal, the annual subscription for $30 a year is. So if you want the best deal I’d go with that. This deal is for those of you that want to support creators and what we’re trying to achieve with Nebula. We want to make a platform that is creator owned, with Original smart highly produced content. We want to build a platform that isn’t about generating clicks no matter what. Recently Nebula has been laser focussing on Nebula Original, highly produced content that’s only on Nebula and would normally be beyond the budget for normal creators to make. Lifetime memberships are a great way to fund those projects right now. Nebula already has a healthy amount of monthly and yearly subscribers which means as a platform we don’t need to take on any outside funding or answer to predatory investors. Everything the platform makes goes into paying the creators, producing content, and improving the platform. Lifetime memberships are a way for us to get a lump sum without sacrificing Nebula’s independence. The Originals that have been created so far are already impressive, so I’m really looking forward to seeing what is possible with a bigger budget and even though I haven’t produced an Original yet, the possibilities they present are incredible and I have a ton of topics I know could only work as Nebula Originals. We’re also significantly improving the quality of the Nebula app. For example, we just added support for LG TVs and Roku this year. When you sign up for a lifetime membership, your payment get split 3 ways. First, part of your membership goes directly to the creator, me. Another amount goes towards fixing bugs and adding features to Nebula. And lastly it goes to funding Nebula Originals. The money that makes these projects possible comes directly from the people who sign up to Nebula, our customers are the investors and so the platform answers to them and their desires rather than a boardroom. I care about Nebula. I care about its success. I love the team behind it and think we’re doing incredible work. The safety it provides me and this channel is invaluable. If you believe in it too and want to be a part of its success for years to come and a Nebula Lifetime Membership sounds interesting click here go.nebula.tv/lifetime?ref=cogito . This is for the people that truly care about what we’re building here and want to support it beyond the regular subscription. For most of you though the annual $30 a year subscription is still the best deal and you’ll get access to everything Nebula has to offer through that deal and this channel will still get a part of that too. No matter what choice you go with, I appreciate you watching!
Great video! You should do a video about Puerto Ricans. One of our freedom fighters, Pedro Albizu Campos, was actually involved in writing the first Irish constitution!
Definitely was not expecting a 1hour long video about Bengali Culture. There isn’t many in-depth videos like this about Bengal on RUclips. Much appreciated Cognito
Thank you! I am really happy to hear the you enjoyed the video. I think it's so important for people in the diaspora to learn about their heritage and I'm glad this video helped you with that 😀
I'm a Bangladeshi Buddhist from Chittagong. I moved to France at 13 yo with family. While I appreciate all the opportunities that France provided me, I also missed Bangladesh. I felt robbed of a Bengali growing up experience, kind of a "nostalgic attachment" you can call it. But I feel like this video explains why I felt that way better than I ever could put into words. Thank you ❤️
You didn't miss much. Most bengalis can only dream of living in a country like France. While the culture, food is decent in BD, the quality of life is terrible
Trying to understand one's identity is a very important feeling. People are attracted to their roots naturally. I am happy you felt validated by this video.
As a Bengali (from West Bengal), it makes me sad to think how much turmoil my ancestors had to go through and how we were pulled down from the riches to rags. But we are growing again and we are growing fast. I hope one day both West Bengal and Bangladesh will hold high places in the world in terms of science, technology, arts and culture.
There's no high places to hold for West Bengal, Brother. It's either India or India. Growth, prosperity or whatever, the only torchbearer of the Bengali people is 🇧🇩
@@shohartoislam7106the Bangladesh which is right now existing has well deviated from what it was when it was freed from Pakistan. Bengali culture is desperately murdered in Bangladesh and imposed with Islamic western style culture. Bengali culture will stay alive till the day India exists. India promotes diversity but Bangladesh doesn't seems to do so. Even ur comments show how u are disregarding India as ur freedom giver.
Taught me more about Bengal than I've ever been aware of as a British Bangladeshi - but it was so cool to recognise some of the names, events and food 💚❤️💚
There are a province/state in India called WEST BENGAL shares it's border line with the independent country BANGLADESH. Before August 1947, when India was undivided, Bangladesh means both Bangladesh and west bengal. The country now is known as Bangladesh since 1971 actually known was East Bengal. Later known as East Pakistan. In Bangladesh most people are Muslims when in West Bengal most people are Bengali. Men wear long/short Kurti with jeans/trousers/pajamas but formally wear shirts where women wear traditionally cotton/silk/jamdani sarees and casually wear salwar kamij/ kurti trousers. Dhakai Jamdani/bengali tant/kantha stitch/baluchori are popular work for fabrics. Women usually wear gold or terra cotta ornaments, sometimes pearls. Comparing rest of India, Bengalies prefer light coloured outfit and less ornaments. Shantiniketan in Bolpur is a popular place in West Bengal. Pronunciation is different in Bangladesh, Tripura and West Bengal people. In Kolkata people speak most formal Bengalies. Many Bengalis in both Bengal are secular comparing other South Asians. Unfortunately, common Bengali's income are less comparing other races in South India.
I am a Bengali from Bangladesh 🇧🇩. You won’t find that much detailed video about Bengali people on RUclips. This guy definitely deserves a hats off for such an informative video. Respect to you man. 🫡 I really appreciate your effort. ❤
@@biswas003 Guvarputtar! are you ashamed of your history?😆😂🤣 Lets check history, Sanata Dharm is the religion of some Aryans, Where is the birth place of sanatani aryans?

Ans : Sanatanis.😆😂🤣 Now, go back to Pakistan, oops🤭, you can't even go there because you lost that land to Muslims during Independence. Indian Santanis will forever be called immigrants for India and Pakistan now.😆😂🤣
Thanks! Bengali people are resilient and your video is the proof of that. The video was very well researched and deserves bigger audience. I am Bangladeshi and living in the US currently. when I tell people here where I am from, they still don’t know where Bangladesh is. This makes me sad considering the rich history we had.
I'm a Bengali from West Bengal and I literally cried watching this ! also, I never comment on RUclips and I didn't even realize it was an hour long video! Thank you so much for this !!
So grateful for this video. You did an amazing job! Being a Bangladeshi descent but brought up in another part of world, I have always been looking for well explained history videos about Bengalis. I found a lot of new facts through this video. Thank you!
Just watched on Nebula! My wife and I, two of the most obnoxious proud Bengali bores you could imagine, who pride ourselves on knowing our history and culture, learnt so much. I am so blown away that you’ve managed such an expansive overview and I love all the attention to little details. Food! Football! Some innovative pronunciations too 😜 So many references! Like an academic thesis. I especially appreciated the medieval history, as well as detailed coverage of the horrors of Partition and the 1970s. My family were heavily involved with relief efforts after the cyclone and then the war, episodes that so few in the West know much about, with most coverage about Independence focusing on the Western border. At times it was a really hard watch, but you’ve done an amazing job. খুব ভালো, জয় বাংলা!
Thanks! I am from Tripura . it was really a very nice representation . I really feel bad seeing todays scenario. What we had in the past and today what we have become .
@@temptemp4174 what kind of question is that? west bengali people are a part of the nation of india and they have a bengali identity as well as a indian identity and bond with the nation. its not as easy just join bangladesh. people had a choice to migrate from their land and go to east bengal/east pakistan aka bangladesh from their home in west bengal due to the whims of the british, some did and the rest chose to stay in the land they have been living as their ancestors did before them. the idea of East Pakistan wasn't originally for "Bengali people" it was for a Muslim nation like Pakistan, it was later that it turned out to be Bangaldesh- for the Bangla People identity rather than the East-West Pakistani Muslim identity. India is a land where there are many ethnic groups co exists and these groups are of all religions- Gujrati, Tamils,Kashmiris,Marathis Punjabis,Telugus,Malayalis,Kannadigas and more, Everything isnt as easy and dandy as you think it to be and the logic behind your question is void.
@@harlowida It's occupied by Pakistanis.If you don't see yourself as Indian then get the f*ck out of here and go to Pakistan.Non-Muslim people live in Kashmir as well, it is their home and they see themselves as Indians.
@@sidharth9046 EXACTLY!!!I am a Bangali from West Bengal and I am INDIAN.Bangladesh emerged from India and so she can feel free to join us if the Baangals want so, BUT NEVER ASK US TO SEPARATE OURSELVES FROM INDIA!!!!
You won't believe how many times during this video I've cried. Something about the rise and fall of our people gave me all kinds of emotions. Thank you for describing our culture and our people in your own unique way.
Bangladeshi here 🇧🇩 I must congratulate you on your research. Excellent video, really enjoyed it. Bengal once had everything, and I hope our best days are ahead of us. I feel it in my heart that Mother Bengal will one day regain her lost glory....her culture, beauty and industrial prowess will once again inspire many around the globe. জয় বাংলা।
Here's a random American wishing you guys the best of luck! I know your people can meet your expectations and fulfill your dreams, because you've done it before.
@@semaj_5022 thanks but our idea of success is different from GDP yardstick of measuring success. Struggle etc is our forte and pursuit of aspirational goods/services does not drive us...Instead one measures the fruitfulness of one's life in terms of inner strife to reach greater good. I doubt if ever a western raised sensibility can understand this ethos...its very very different way of living than the west. Many parts of India share this ethos and is one common thing that binds us rather than language/food/dress.
@@semaj_5022 struggle free existence is not our aspiration. Definition of health is different here with chubby round considered healthy. Thanks anyways
Tagore is the most well-known and beloved Indian writer in Korea because he expressed active solidarity with Koreans when Korea was under Japanese imperialist rule. His poem is taught in textbooks, and there is a bronze bust of him in Daehagro, the center of literature and theater (where Tagore's plays are often performed as well) and it's often decorated with fresh garlands. The founder/director of the Indian Museum fell in love with Indian and Bengal culture through her love of Tagore's works. I haven't read all of his works (please cut me some slack, there's just too many), just some poems and short stories and plays, but each time it amazes me how beautifully written and also perceptive and progressive (even by today's standards) they are. I enjoyed how the Netflix movie Bulbul included not only Bengali folklore, but also references to Tagore's works. I will definitely read Gora (and Rokeya Hossain's works!) after watching this video.
@@leonhardeuler7647 For better or for worse Rajabinod Pali is not as well known by the general public, but history majors or history buffs who do know him are well... let's say they don't like him very much lol. At least there tends to be a begrudging understanding of Subhas Chandra Bose, since he was trying to fight for his country.
As a bengali from the diaspora. I must say you have given me and many others like me a lot to take pride in. We are devoid of a lot of this eclectic history of ours. Thank you
As a Bengali immigrant in India how my Grandfather and Grandmother moved here with nothing and still nurtured my father and all his siblings still gave me goosebumps. What a nice video....
আমি একজন বাঙালি হিসেবে নিজেকে গর্বিত এবং ধন্য মনে করি ❤ আমি বাংলা কে ভালোবাসি , বাঙালি সংস্কৃতি কে ভালোবাসি সর্বোপরি আমার প্রিয় মাতৃভাষা বাংলা কে ভালোবাসি 🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️ Proud to be a Bengali.
I'm a Bengali Buddhist from Chattogram, Bangladesh. As far as I know, we are ancestors of the original Buddhists of Bengal when Buddhism first arrived here. I think this is the most accurate and thoroughly researched video about Bengal on RUclips. Thank you so much!
Whats funny is hindus calling them real bengali while bangla originally came from buddhists..and most Bangladeshis had buddhist ancestry rather then hindu..
As a Sylheti Bengali from North-Eastern India, all I have to say is thank you so much for presenting my culture so beautifully. Us Bengalis have a great contribution for this country's independence and shaping its culture. I feel so proud to be a Bangali. Ami gorbito ami Bangali.
Absolutely incredible video. Had literal goosebumps I am a Bengali from Bangladesh but I liked how you didn't focus on Bangladesh or West Bengal, rather represented the entire history, culture as a whole which is exactly what we are. We may be divided by borders, but are Bengalis wherever we may be. Also incredibly accurate considering the time limitations I always felt like Bengali history and culture isn't as represented at the world stage as it should be but this was incredible These last three centuries hasn't been the best but may we rise again as a secular, peaceloving, developed nation and people. Joy Bangla
I have been following this channel for nearly a year and honestly, I feel gobsmacked after watching this complete 1 hour long video. I have never really seen any foreign RUclipsr creating such in-depth and extensive content about my identity, my country, my language, my culture. As a Bangladeshi Bengali Muslim I feel honored that such a video exists about my people. I would like to express gratitude from the deepest of my heart to you. Thank you, Cogito.
I'm a Benagli from India (and a long time subscriber), today you make me proud by revisiting the history (though I have read most of it in school but in bits and pieces, this is the best video which merged them). That Russia - India Vs USA - Pak - China was the best part. Loved this video.
Being a migrant born in Kolkata with Afghan - Bihar background family was never exposed to so much history of Bengal. Thanks alot for making such in-depth video. Waiting for another video of Bengal.
I'm Telugu American, my parents are from Andhra Pradesh. I've been trying to understand my history and my roots, my entire life. Thanks for adding a metric load of history and culture to my identity to draw from.
Bengali current governement is also kinda responsible. Mamata is a crooked lady who has failed to modernise Bengal. Bengal has a port, and could have developed like southern states. But mamata has failed. On the other side sheikh hasina is busy silencing minority groups, but atleast she has managed to bring in factories to her country...
@@Game_Hero That's not gonna happen when there's so many people that are already fine with living as a separate country the past is the past think it as Korea I don't think North Korea and South Korea would ever want to reunited again when they already have their own laws and leaders.
@@KanadMondal Germans reunified, Italians reunified, Vietnamese reunified, why couldn't Bengalis against a colonial-era border imposed by a foreign power?
I am a Bengali Muslim. I am currently in Rangamati, the most important city of Chittagong Hill Tracts. Here Bengali, Chakma, Marma, tribals, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Christians all live together very peacefully. 🇧🇩😊
I am Indian Hindu Bengali. Bengali Hindus Are Real Bengali. Muslim are convert to Hindu Realigion. 1203 Iktiyaruddin - Mohammad - Baktiyar Khilji Attacks Bengal . Turki Army Killed Every Hindu And Buddism In Bengal. 1946 Direct War very Hindu Bengali killed. 2 - 5 Million Hindu bengali Came In India. This Is Real Story Of United Bengal.
As a Bengali who grew up outside of the country, I thank you for making such an amazing video. I've learned so much today about my roots and culture and it's rich history!
Normally I don't like 20min+ lengthy videos but this was exceptional. As a Bengali you have my deepest gratitude for delivering this excellent analysis on our heritage.
Coming from a Bengali living at the heart of Dhaka, this video captures aspects of our culture that even our textbooks fail to do. You gave me a new perspective about my own people. This was an extremely well researched and adequate video. Thank you.
As a Kolkata Bengali I have never imagined Bengal as a whole province. Gave me a whole new perspective. Thanks Cogito really appreciate you making this amazing video.
As a Bangladeshi, I can vouch for the pure excellence of this video. It has even taught me some history that I was unaware of, but more importantly, the video gave me repetitive goosebumps and rejuvenated a sense of pride for my nation.
Ikr, half of the communal problem will be sorted out if both the countries include the entire history/or the history related to their region to their education system.
Which textbook are you using, and how do you interpret it? You must have read the British CIE-approved textbook, where they portray themselves as the saint of God that brown skin needed. In our history class, we learned about Bengal's pre-Islamic dominance, the British Empire's barbaric reign, and Bangladesh's historic liberation war.
As a Proud Bangali I am really thankful to you for making such a remarkable video on Bengali History.I never found a video like that. I really give to thanks our great leaders for giving us an Independent country. I also love our West Bengal, Tripura, Asam, and all other Bengali Brothers and Sisters❤️❤️🇧🇩
Wow, this is some really great work. And it's amazing that it's available for free on the internet. I am not even from Bengal but the way you described the famines and operation searchlight brought me to tears.
As a Bengali and Bangladeshi I can assure you, So far, this is the most well detailed video on Bangla, Bengali People and Bangladesh❤ Thanks a lot for your hard work.
I'm a mathematical physicist from Bangladesh 🇧🇩. You talk 100% authentic history about us. Lots of love with my heart. And you're right bengali are born liberal and we love any kind of literature. A bengali family always pressure on their children to learn any kind of musical instrument or any type of cultural elements. 🎉 Again thank you so much for your hard work. ❤
So true. I am Bengali from India and I agree. Our strongest suit is liberalism and shared culture. What I gather from this video was the Brits and Pakistanis have tried hard to destroy it. Also our language, culture, literature and rich history is for epar ar opar Bangla. ❤
Wow! Couldn’t have asked for a better video on this topic. As someone who received 1-12th grade general education in Bangladeshi curriculum in Saudi Arabia based school - I learned so many intricate details and nuances about the greater Bengal region in this video. Goes on to show the level of depth and painstaking research the people involved with the production of this video went through. I could be wrong but I’m not aware of any video in such depth on this topic in Bangla on youtube. Super grateful to the people involved in the production of this video.
As a Bengali, you don’t know how much happy and proud it makes me feel to see my language, culture and our long history to be represented by a foreigner. You just made my day. Thanks a lot for making this video, Cogito. Lots of love from India.
ধোর বাড়া, ওরা (ইংরেজরা) একসময় আমাদের উপর নির্যাতন করত, শাষণ করত। বাংলার নারীদের ধর্ষণ করত। আর এখন ঐ ইংরেজ এর বাচ্চা আমাদেরকে বানানো ইতিহাস দেখাচ্ছে যে ওরা নাকি আমাদের উন্নয়ন করেছে.! আর তোমার মত বোকাচোদা এই উল্ট ইতিহাস দেখে খুব proud চুদাও, "its make my day" চুদাও।
Bro explained stuff better than a bangali. Our bangla books made the poem ot though poets sound like jokes ... and they don't taught us like this. And i don't think anyone understand the history class either... our school system sucks as the Numbers matters more than the actual understanding and knowledge of the thing . And people can't even get the dream job with their 100 mark GOLDEN A+ degree. Bangladeshi school system is a joke.
As an Indian, Especially South Indian. I am in awe of this video. It has been a very long time since you channel covered Indian history. Even though I loved the Tamil people video. This one has a special place in my heart. I hope more Indians see this. Especially Bengalis, they do not get enough credit for their contribution to South Asian culture. They are celebrated yes. But not enough. Long live Bengal, Long live mother India.
@Your_real_dad Bengalis are everywhere be it science, literature, culture we just don't boast our bengali identity like some other ethnic groups that's why we feel underrepresented
Well done. I’m Bengali with ancestors from Dhaka, born in India and grew up in US. Love the green tropical environment of Bengal and my favorite foods will always be rice and fish.
The sheer length of this video proves that the history of Bangalis is very deep and glorious. What our people suffered last 3 hundred years is a matter of great sorrow. I thank Cogito for putting this effort and accumulating our history and culture into this video. It is truly a great work you did here. I watched the whole video and it is really impressive. Thanks a lot for doing this!!! Sending love from Bangladesh!
I am proud I am a Bangladeshi Hindu Woman 🕉🇧🇩 "We got Bengali language in exchange of blood. International Mother Language Day is celebrated on February 21 for the honor of Bengali. Jai Bangla Jai Bangabandhu
As a Bengali your video brought tears to my eyes multiple times. One of the best videos ever made about history of Bengalis on youtube! Have been watching your videos on and off for few years now. You're definitely my favorite Irish guys 😃🫰
I am proud I am Hindu of Bangladesh. 🇧🇩😌ॐ In exchange for the lives of 30 lakh people, we got the recognition of our Bengali language at the court of the people of the world. No nation has given such life for language.
As a Bangladeshi, I can't thank you enough for making such a detailed videos about us. The free spirits of Bengali nation and our thousands of years old culture lives through the independent state of Bangladesh. We are still one of the biggest producer and exporter of clothes and Ships. During middle ages, bengal was called "Bulgakpur" meaning the land of rebellion. As long as a bengali exist, the free spirit of Bangladesh will remain. ধন্যবাদ ।
As a Bangladeshi, I believe this is a video all Bengalis must come across at least once, from start to finish, the level articulacy, creativity and detail presented is incredible! Thank you very much for giving us a such an amazing and educative video regarding our culture, heritage and history.
Thank you so much for publishing this. My father is Bengali. And this means so much to me trying to get through watching this video without crying 😢! But I’m proud to be Bengali.
The Bengal was so globalised that Chittagong, the port city had 49 different names at its peak..I am so proud for where i've been born,which Language i've been inherited..It's just a momentary simplification of happiness for me to watch this gem on my Identity.. A bengali from the land of bengalis"Bangladesh"...
I'm a Bengali/Bangladeshi girl living in America and I appreciate this video so much. I loved learning about my history and the struggles my people have faced. I am so proud of my people who above all circumstances, prevailed because of their determination. Thank you so much for this video.
Catholic Bengali here! I grew up almost my entire life in America and honestly feel a bit ashamed of my cultural disconnect, both as a Bengali & an Indian as a whole, & love to learn about it whenever I get. Thank you so much for this video! (I feel so spoiled; an hour long too!)
@@SheikhAhmadShah False. Bangla and India are one and the same thing. Perso-Arabic forces pushed East Bangla out of India's cultural sphere. But you guys still use an Indic Bengali script (not Perso Arabic) for writing Bengali, use a National Anthem written with zero Arabic words in it by an Indian nationalist Bengali and sing the classical music which originates from the ancient Indian Sanskrit text Natyashastra. Get this in your mind, only BANGLADESH is separate from India, Bengal as a whole is not.
Had always been a Cogito fan but this was so unexpected..to think such a detailed and well-justified history was shown had me in tears. Could not be more proud to be a Bengali. From all the freedom fighters to revolutionaries, I bow my head down to all of them and say Joi Bangla 🙏
My roots are in Bangladesh and this video is pretty thorough. From Vedic period to Janapadas to Pala era. You even covered medieval era, the shift of Ganges river and all. The attention to detail is amazing. Well done!
I did not understand when it was 1 hour to watch this video. Then came tears. Thanks to all your team. 😢I never thought that a foreigner would bring Bengali history to everyone in such a beautiful way. Thank you to everyone in your team ❤
As a Bangladeshi, our history books and national events mainly focus on Pakistan ruling and liberation war. I wish kids in my country would know history before 1947 more deeply and realise how we Bangalis were one of the biggest if not the biggest sufferers of British Empire. Although we are taught about our golden past but the part how it was brutally snatched from us, how we went from artists to farmers due to starvation and oppression should be taught more clearly and boldly as we are taught about Pakistani oppression. Really loved this video, the details were amazing. Proud to be a Bangali.

@@ayushdebbarma7585 while we fight with our brothers and sisters, the string pullers upstairs are laughing at us. I wonder when we will understand this.
I am from Kerala, but idk why I felt so many goosebumps after listening to this whole video. And first time I have seen the different view of Bengal irrespective of Indo-ban border. Simply wow!!!!
Ok. You will be surprised how much Bengali culture has weird similarities with Kerala.... like, Bengalis use coconut and fish in their meals like us. Most of them are not clear cut similarities but we can feel it when you interact with them. Of course their cultural history and influence are far far greater than Kerala's but the similarities are uncanny. We always had Bengali singers and Composers making Malayalam movie songs... Take our classic "chemmeen" for example.
An unexpected gift to bengali bro, I am also a bengali hindu from west bengal, I am overwhelmed but not surprised at all, as all your videos are true spectacle.
Yeah bro..I'm from hooghly..i feel very proud and safe in bengal..i live in Kolkata for 2years rn..what a peace..i never see any religious fighte in Kolkata.....Bengal is a total culture..no one can beat.
I am a Mangalorean Catholic with Goan Heritage. Our language Konkani surprisingly has lots of Bengali Loanwords. Also, the pronunciation and sounds are influenced a lot by Bengali even though our language is closer to Marathi. Just like Bengali, people also call Konkani a sweet language.
As an Indian Bengali from Kolkata, that "bungalow" fact blew me away! Also "hansjaru" is a character from Sukumar Ray's "Abol Tabol" literally meaning "Nonsense". This video is AMAZING! So well made! I cry. ❤🥹
@@reallybadgameplay513 actually there are many people in Indian now a day that out their states name before the name of their country or sometime they don't even mention their country they just say their state name like it's a different country 😕 So that's why I was happy that this guy says indian before Bengali not that he can't be proud of being a Bengali but your country should always be above your state😎🗿
What the people suffered and struggled to become this small country has truly touched my heart. I will forever be proud and share my hearfelt gratitude for all those people who suffered and struggled to create this wonderful country. Bangladesh is truly a beautiful country, it may not be perfect but it is something millions died for. As a Bangladeshi, I express my gratitude to all those people for making it so easy to live for us generation.
Yes we’ll be forever grateful nd it’s our duty to bring back the past glory. Where religion, financial backgrounds etc doesn’t matter all matters is celebrating every festivities together nd sharing love, living in unison
I love reading about geopolitics but i never knew i was this ignorant about the influence and history of my own homeland! From the evolution of bengali culture through the annals of history to the influence bengal had on the geopolitical stage involving Nixon, Kissinger, Mao, Indira Gandhi, Pakistan, Russia and Bangladesh! I had no idea! This video taught me more about my culture than my 12 years of schooling in West Bengal! I cant fathom the years of study and months of research a video like this would have taken THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
As a Bengali, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this. What skill, talent and knowledge you have to put together such a beautiful presentation and video.
Awesome video! As a Bangladeshi, I really appreciated learning more about our history. It’s great! I hope more people from around the world get to visit Bangladesh. Thank you for this!
As a Bengali, I can not thank you enough for making this video. I couldn't possibly show how grateful I am right now. Hope our culture and history is known to everyone around the world
My best friend and one of my co-workers are both from Bangladesh, so this was a neat surprise! Through interactions with them and a few others, such as an Indian Bengali professor, I've grown to love Bengali people. I get the impression that they're energetic, hospitable, and willing to talk frankly. My bestie and her family want me to take a tour of Bangladesh with them someday soon, and it's definitely high on my bucket list. It's up there with Japan, which is saying a lot as a recovering weeaboo. I wish the best for Bengalis on both sides of the border, and I hope that their commonality wins out over religious and political division.
Bengal and Irish people also have great connection. The revolutionary on both sides supported each other against British colonism. Swami Vivekanada the fire brand religious leader had an Irish follower who made Kolkata her home. Sister Nivedita was and still is a revered person in Bengal history
As a Bengali who's ancestors moved to India during partition, this video is reminding me of the the stories I heard from my grandmother who was 6-7yo during partition and moving to India leaving everything she knew and loved behind are some of her earliest childhood memories... I feel so heart broken for the entire Bengali community, doesn't matter which country. Partition, whether in Bengal or in Punjab, it sucked a lot that we can't even imagine. I can't imagine leaving or losing everyone and everything I love and care about in a snap and never to be seen again
My ancestor moved to Bangladesh during the partition. I so want to know about the life and the land my ancestors lived. Although we are connected, we are separated by a line.
Bengal suffered more than Punjab because the population exchange never happened unlike Punjab , and huge refugee crisis during 1971 also altered demography.
No praise is enough for the love and dedication that have been put into making this video. As a Bengali, I felt an overwhelming surge of emotion while watching this. Please keep creating more of such content. P.S. I was pleasantly surprised hearing few of the things like Haanshjaru and potatoes in Biriyani, which are supposed to be very much of an inside trivia within the Bengali community. I wonder how you came upon this? 😊

Our ancestors have made numerous achievements and made us proud, not only in Asia but the entire world. Thank you so much for making this awesome tribute to our great civilisation. Love from Calcutta (West Bengal), India 😊😊
As a Bengali from Kolkata, WB, I really appreciate your efforts and the video is quite informative. Although it was a long video, it would have been great if you could add a bit about Bengali language movements in India, especially in Assam (still ongoing) and how Purulia became a part of West Bengal.
I can confidently recognize this video as the best and the most comprehensive documentary on the Bengalis. Kudos. Every Bengali student or anyone interested in the history and culture of this region should watch this video.
Never expected an hour long video on Bengal, I am a bengali and approve of this video. Yes there's lot more to the history. I often think if both of the Bengal were joined back together all of us could flourish again the way we always have in the past. The atrocities done to us so many years ago are felt to this day. However, we are still moving ahead and flourishing in one way or another in the world stage. I would surely watch a second part of this, just to put it out there! ❤❤👌
I was a proud Bengali Before (from east Bengal 🇧🇩), but after watching your detailed film, my love for my land and people has grown deeper - Thank you!!! hats off 👍✊🏿
This video should be a mandatory watch at every schools, for every single people in Bangladesh. Very well presented 🎉. Very proud to be a Bengali currently living in Canada.
Thank you so much! Not a lot of people understand the Bangladeshi or Bangali culture! I am so glad you used your platform to raise more understanding about us and our culture. I can assure you, Bangalis are the nicest and friendliest people ever! They are so welcoming and hospitable. Much needed; much love.
Man, having a system of universities that early on is such an impressive feat! The Bengalis have been blessed with such rich and fascinating history. Through and through, Bengalis have shown they're strong, brave, and resilient people who kept fighting for what's right. I live in the NYC metro which has the most Bengalis in the US and I appreciate their cuisine, so it's cool to dive deep into their history! Fun fact: The huge white building shown around 0:12 is the Victoria Memorial in Kolkata. It was built between 1906 and 1921. As Queen Victoria wasn't just Queen of the UK but also the very first Empress of India, Lord Curzon, the then Viceroy of India, wanted such a grand structure and gardens that symbolized her grand reign in the British India capital. It is the largest monument to a monarch anywhere in the world as it is 338 by 228 feet (or 103 by 69 m) and rises to a height of 184 feet/56 m, while the size of the gardens are 64 acres! The architect of the Victoria Memorial was William Emerson who also designed the All Saints Cathedral and Muir Central College in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh as well as the Crawford Market in Mumbai. The design is in the Indo-Saracenic revivalist style which uses a mixture of British and Mughal elements with Venetian, Egyptian, Deccani architectural influences. It uses white Makrana marble just like the Taj Mahal as it is meant to echo the Taj Mahal. The memorial also has several galleries, with a collection size of 50,000 things displayed!

Get Nebula using my link for 40% off an annual subscription: go.nebula.tv/cogito
Watch Modern Conflicts exclusively on Nebula: nebula.tv/modernconflicts?ref=cogito
ONLY IN SEPTEMBER: Get a lifetime membership to Nebula for only $300: go.nebula.tv/lifetime?ref=cogito
MORE ON LIFETIME MEMBERSHIPS:
For the month of September Nebula is offering a lifetime membership deal. The deal is you pay $300 once and get access to Nebula forever, no matter what, no takesy backsies. This isn’t the most economical deal, the annual subscription for $30 a year is. So if you want the best deal I’d go with that. This deal is for those of you that want to support creators and what we’re trying to achieve with Nebula. We want to make a platform that is creator owned, with Original smart highly produced content. We want to build a platform that isn’t about generating clicks no matter what.
Recently Nebula has been laser focussing on Nebula Original, highly produced content that’s only on Nebula and would normally be beyond the budget for normal creators to make. Lifetime memberships are a great way to fund those projects right now. Nebula already has a healthy amount of monthly and yearly subscribers which means as a platform we don’t need to take on any outside funding or answer to predatory investors. Everything the platform makes goes into paying the creators, producing content, and improving the platform. Lifetime memberships are a way for us to get a lump sum without sacrificing Nebula’s independence.
The Originals that have been created so far are already impressive, so I’m really looking forward to seeing what is possible with a bigger budget and even though I haven’t produced an Original yet, the possibilities they present are incredible and I have a ton of topics I know could only work as Nebula Originals.
We’re also significantly improving the quality of the Nebula app. For example, we just added support for LG TVs and Roku this year.
When you sign up for a lifetime membership, your payment get split 3 ways. First, part of your membership goes directly to the creator, me. Another amount goes towards fixing bugs and adding features to Nebula. And lastly it goes to funding Nebula Originals.
The money that makes these projects possible comes directly from the people who sign up to Nebula, our customers are the investors and so the platform answers to them and their desires rather than a boardroom.
I care about Nebula. I care about its success. I love the team behind it and think we’re doing incredible work. The safety it provides me and this channel is invaluable. If you believe in it too and want to be a part of its success for years to come and a Nebula Lifetime Membership sounds interesting click here go.nebula.tv/lifetime?ref=cogito . This is for the people that truly care about what we’re building here and want to support it beyond the regular subscription. For most of you though the annual $30 a year subscription is still the best deal and you’ll get access to everything Nebula has to offer through that deal and this channel will still get a part of that too.
No matter what choice you go with, I appreciate you watching!
This is your best video, well done sir

I'm a Bangladeshi Buddhist from Chittagong. I moved to France at 13 yo with family.
While I appreciate all the opportunities that France provided me, I also missed Bangladesh. I felt robbed of a Bengali growing up experience, kind of a "nostalgic attachment" you can call it.
But I feel like this video explains why I felt that way better than I ever could put into words.
Thank you ❤️
You didn't miss much. Most bengalis can only dream of living in a country like France. While the culture, food is decent in BD, the quality of life is terrible
Is not Buddhist teachings is about not being attached to your identity which Buddha called EGO.
Trying to understand one's identity is a very important feeling. People are attracted to their roots naturally. I am happy you felt validated by this video.

There are a province/state in India called WEST BENGAL shares it's border line with the independent country BANGLADESH. Before August 1947, when India was undivided, Bangladesh means both Bangladesh and west bengal. The country now is known as Bangladesh since 1971 actually known was East Bengal. Later known as East Pakistan. In Bangladesh most people are Muslims when in West Bengal most people are Bengali. Men wear long/short Kurti with jeans/trousers/pajamas but formally wear shirts where women wear traditionally cotton/silk/jamdani sarees and casually wear salwar kamij/ kurti trousers. Dhakai Jamdani/bengali tant/kantha stitch/baluchori are popular work for fabrics. Women usually wear gold or terra cotta ornaments, sometimes pearls. Comparing rest of India, Bengalies prefer light coloured outfit and less ornaments. Shantiniketan in Bolpur is a popular place in West Bengal. Pronunciation is different in Bangladesh, Tripura and West Bengal people. In Kolkata people speak most formal Bengalies. Many Bengalis in both Bengal are secular comparing other South Asians. Unfortunately, common Bengali's income are less comparing other races in South India.

Just watched on Nebula! My wife and I, two of the most obnoxious proud Bengali bores you could imagine, who pride ourselves on knowing our history and culture, learnt so much. I am so blown away that you’ve managed such an expansive overview and I love all the attention to little details. Food! Football! Some innovative pronunciations too 😜 So many references! Like an academic thesis. I especially appreciated the medieval history, as well as detailed coverage of the horrors of Partition and the 1970s. My family were heavily involved with relief efforts after the cyclone and then the war, episodes that so few in the West know much about, with most coverage about Independence focusing on the Western border. At times it was a really hard watch, but you’ve done an amazing job. খুব ভালো, জয় বাংলা!

Why doesn't West Bengal just join up with Bangladesh? is the religious line the British drew really that important?
@@temptemp4174 what kind of question is that? west bengali people are a part of the nation of india and they have a bengali identity as well as a indian identity and bond with the nation. its not as easy just join bangladesh. people had a choice to migrate from their land and go to east bengal/east pakistan aka bangladesh from their home in west bengal due to the whims of the british, some did and the rest chose to stay in the land they have been living as their ancestors did before them. the idea of East Pakistan wasn't originally for "Bengali people" it was for a Muslim nation like Pakistan, it was later that it turned out to be Bangaldesh- for the Bangla People identity rather than the East-West Pakistani Muslim identity. India is a land where there are many ethnic groups co exists and these groups are of all religions- Gujrati, Tamils,Kashmiris,Marathis Punjabis,Telugus,Malayalis,Kannadigas and more, Everything isnt as easy and dandy as you think it to be and the logic behind your question is void.

Tagore is the most well-known and beloved Indian writer in Korea because he expressed active solidarity with Koreans when Korea was under Japanese imperialist rule. His poem is taught in textbooks, and there is a bronze bust of him in Daehagro, the center of literature and theater (where Tagore's plays are often performed as well) and it's often decorated with fresh garlands. The founder/director of the Indian Museum fell in love with Indian and Bengal culture through her love of Tagore's works. I haven't read all of his works (please cut me some slack, there's just too many), just some poems and short stories and plays, but each time it amazes me how beautifully written and also perceptive and progressive (even by today's standards) they are. I enjoyed how the Netflix movie Bulbul included not only Bengali folklore, but also references to Tagore's works. I will definitely read Gora (and Rokeya Hossain's works!) after watching this video.
Tagore literature in Korea is such an unexpected crossover! Truly fascinating.

we just don't boast our bengali identity like some other ethnic groups that's why we feel underrepresented
our neighbors to the west are all about swag. Bengalis are all about understatement.
Exactly we have a way lot of contributions and our history is rich
Jai Dravida Jai Bangla.
South Indians are our brothers beyond doubt.
@@ardhendubose2520 all indians are . Why only south?
Well done. I’m Bengali with ancestors from Dhaka, born in India and grew up in US. Love the green tropical environment of Bengal and my favorite foods will always be rice and fish.
This is my history too. But I was born the US
Touched by the breadth of research. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you
The sheer length of this video proves that the history of Bangalis is very deep and glorious. What our people suffered last 3 hundred years is a matter of great sorrow. I thank Cogito for putting this effort and accumulating our history and culture into this video. It is truly a great work you did here. I watched the whole video and it is really impressive. Thanks a lot for doing this!!! Sending love from Bangladesh!
As a Native of Purulia, I could have never have imagined to see someone cover Bengali let alone Chau at such detail. Kudos Cogito.

I'm Bangali, from Dhaka, Bangladesh 🇧🇩 Many Many Thanks for Upload this Video ❤
As a Bengali your video brought tears to my eyes multiple times. One of the best videos ever made about history of Bengalis on youtube!
Have been watching your videos on and off for few years now.
You're definitely my favorite Irish guys 😃🫰
I am proud I am Hindu of Bangladesh. 🇧🇩😌ॐ In exchange for the lives of 30 lakh people, we got the recognition of our Bengali language at the court of the people of the world. No nation has given such life for language.

As a Bangladeshi, I can't thank you enough for making such a detailed videos about us. The free spirits of Bengali nation and our thousands of years old culture lives through the independent state of Bangladesh. We are still one of the biggest producer and exporter of clothes and Ships. During middle ages, bengal was called "Bulgakpur" meaning the land of rebellion. As long as a bengali exist, the free spirit of Bangladesh will remain. ধন্যবাদ ।
As a Bangladeshi, I believe this is a video all Bengalis must come across at least once, from start to finish, the level articulacy, creativity and detail presented is incredible! Thank you very much for giving us a such an amazing and educative video regarding our culture, heritage and history.
Thank you so much for publishing this. My father is Bengali. And this means so much to me trying to get through watching this video without crying 😢! But I’m proud to be Bengali.
The Bengal was so globalised that Chittagong, the port city had 49 different names at its peak..I am so proud for where i've been born,which Language i've been inherited..It's just a momentary simplification of happiness for me to watch this gem on my Identity.. A bengali from the land of bengalis"Bangladesh"...
I'm a Bengali/Bangladeshi girl living in America and I appreciate this video so much. I loved learning about my history and the struggles my people have faced. I am so proud of my people who above all circumstances, prevailed because of their determination. Thank you so much for this video.

Wow, never thought my favourite channel is going to upload an 1 hour long video about Bengali people, much love from a Bengali. 🇮🇪🤝🇧🇩
Catholic Bengali here! I grew up almost my entire life in America and honestly feel a bit ashamed of my cultural disconnect, both as a Bengali & an Indian as a whole, & love to learn about it whenever I get. Thank you so much for this video! (I feel so spoiled; an hour long too!)
Honestly, most bengalies in bengal don't know the history in this much detail.
Bangla and India are two separate things. British pushed East Bangla into India.
@@SheikhAhmadShah False. Bangla and India are one and the same thing. Perso-Arabic forces pushed East Bangla out of India's cultural sphere. But you guys still use an Indic Bengali script (not Perso Arabic) for writing Bengali, use a National Anthem written with zero Arabic words in it by an Indian nationalist Bengali and sing the classical music which originates from the ancient Indian Sanskrit text Natyashastra.
Get this in your mind, only BANGLADESH is separate from India, Bengal as a whole is not.
wtf is East Bangla it’s Bangladesh
not needed you're american
As a Bengali myself, I must say that's a great video. ধন্যবাদ (Thanks) 🙌👍

Long live Bengal 🇧🇩
Had always been a Cogito fan but this was so unexpected..to think such a detailed and well-justified history was shown had me in tears. Could not be more proud to be a Bengali. From all the freedom fighters to revolutionaries, I bow my head down to all of them and say Joi Bangla 🙏
My roots are in Bangladesh and this video is pretty thorough. From Vedic period to Janapadas to Pala era. You even covered medieval era, the shift of Ganges river and all. The attention to detail is amazing. Well done!
If anyone wants to read more in detail about the 1971 genocide, do read The Blood Telegram by Gary J. Bass.
I did not understand when it was 1 hour to watch this video. Then came tears. Thanks to all your team. 😢I never thought that a foreigner would bring Bengali history to everyone in such a beautiful way. Thank you to everyone in your team ❤
Hi Pakistani here! This is such a cool video thanks for the education. My sister’s boyfriend is Bengaldeshi so it’s rlly cool to see this ❤️
As a Bangladeshi, our history books and national events mainly focus on Pakistan ruling and liberation war. I wish kids in my country would know history before 1947 more deeply and realise how we Bangalis were one of the biggest if not the biggest sufferers of British Empire. Although we are taught about our golden past but the part how it was brutally snatched from us, how we went from artists to farmers due to starvation and oppression should be taught more clearly and boldly as we are taught about Pakistani oppression. Really loved this video, the details were amazing. Proud to be a Bangali.

@mrwonder2857Ghotis and Bangals have very different cultures.
Why is Indian flag?

Lord Curzon divided bengal in 1905, yet we are fighting with each other till this day
@@ayushdebbarma7585 while we fight with our brothers and sisters, the string pullers upstairs are laughing at us. I wonder when we will understand this.
I am from Kerala, but idk why I felt so many goosebumps after listening to this whole video. And first time I have seen the different view of Bengal irrespective of Indo-ban border. Simply wow!!!!
Ok. You will be surprised how much Bengali culture has weird similarities with Kerala.... like, Bengalis use coconut and fish in their meals like us. Most of them are not clear cut similarities but we can feel it when you interact with them. Of course their cultural history and influence are far far greater than Kerala's but the similarities are uncanny. We always had Bengali singers and Composers making Malayalam movie songs... Take our classic "chemmeen" for example.
Love from West Bengal ❤

An unexpected gift to bengali bro, I am also a bengali hindu from west bengal, I am overwhelmed but not surprised at all, as all your videos are true spectacle.
As a Bengali Muslim in West Bengal I can say Bengali Hindus are very friendly and supportive. And the food part of this video is just 🤤.

I am a Mangalorean Catholic with Goan Heritage. Our language Konkani surprisingly has lots of Bengali Loanwords. Also, the pronunciation and sounds are influenced a lot by Bengali even though our language is closer to Marathi. Just like Bengali, people also call Konkani a sweet language.

Loved that you said "INDIAN BENGALI"🤗
@@anshulshrivastava1518I have to ask what's so important about specifying "Indian Bengali"?
@@reallybadgameplay513 actually there are many people in Indian now a day that out their states name before the name of their country or sometime they don't even mention their country they just say their state name like it's a different country 😕
So that's why I was happy that this guy says indian before Bengali not that he can't be proud of being a Bengali but your country should always be above your state😎🗿
@@anshulshrivastava1518 he could have also meant that he is Bengali person who is still living in India and not abroad.
@@reallybadgameplay513 yeah he coul have 😃
But there are many Bengali people nowadays that treat Bengal as a separate country😕
What the people suffered and struggled to become this small country has truly touched my heart. I will forever be proud and share my hearfelt gratitude for all those people who suffered and struggled to create this wonderful country. Bangladesh is truly a beautiful country, it may not be perfect but it is something millions died for. As a Bangladeshi, I express my gratitude to all those people for making it so easy to live for us generation.
Yes we’ll be forever grateful nd it’s our duty to bring back the past glory. Where religion, financial backgrounds etc doesn’t matter all matters is celebrating every festivities together nd sharing love, living in unison
Thank you so much for sharing the history of our people. Forever grateful
I am a Bengali From Assam, Living in UK right now, I really Appreciate you making this video thanks a lot and Love from bengali People 🤟
I love reading about geopolitics but i never knew i was this ignorant about the influence and history of my own homeland! From the evolution of bengali culture through the annals of history to the influence bengal had on the geopolitical stage involving Nixon, Kissinger, Mao, Indira Gandhi, Pakistan, Russia and Bangladesh! I had no idea! This video taught me more about my culture than my 12 years of schooling in West Bengal!
I cant fathom the years of study and months of research a video like this would have taken
THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
ooo
As a Bengali, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this. What skill, talent and knowledge you have to put together such a beautiful presentation and video.
You are not Bengali
Awesome video! As a Bangladeshi, I really appreciated learning more about our history. It’s great! I hope more people from around the world get to visit Bangladesh. Thank you for this!
As a Bengali, I can not thank you enough for making this video. I couldn't possibly show how grateful I am right now. Hope our culture and history is known to everyone around the world
We must make it known to the world collectively with love nd peace nd our work
My best friend and one of my co-workers are both from Bangladesh, so this was a neat surprise! Through interactions with them and a few others, such as an Indian Bengali professor, I've grown to love Bengali people. I get the impression that they're energetic, hospitable, and willing to talk frankly. My bestie and her family want me to take a tour of Bangladesh with them someday soon, and it's definitely high on my bucket list. It's up there with Japan, which is saying a lot as a recovering weeaboo. I wish the best for Bengalis on both sides of the border, and I hope that their commonality wins out over religious and political division.
you know it's an amazing day when Cogito uploads a full hour long People's of the World video
Thanks!
One of the best videos ever made to graphically and accurately describe the vast aspects of Bengal (Bangladesh and West Bengal) as a whole! Thank you.
Bengal and Irish people also have great connection. The revolutionary on both sides supported each other against British colonism. Swami Vivekanada the fire brand religious leader had an Irish follower who made Kolkata her home. Sister Nivedita was and still is a revered person in Bengal history
Never trust the Irish though...
They also helped British invading India
We love the irish, except Connor mcgregor
It was hard to hold back tears. I'm a bengali too and its heartbreaking to see how much our ancestors went through. Thanks for the video.
As a Bengali who's ancestors moved to India during partition, this video is reminding me of the the stories I heard from my grandmother who was 6-7yo during partition and moving to India leaving everything she knew and loved behind are some of her earliest childhood memories...
I feel so heart broken for the entire Bengali community, doesn't matter which country.
Partition, whether in Bengal or in Punjab, it sucked a lot that we can't even imagine. I can't imagine leaving or losing everyone and everything I love and care about in a snap and never to be seen again
My ancestor moved to Bangladesh during the partition. I so want to know about the life and the land my ancestors lived. Although we are connected, we are separated by a line.
Bengal suffered more than Punjab because the population exchange never happened unlike Punjab , and huge refugee crisis during 1971 also altered demography.
Can’t thank you enough for such a historically accurate video about us Bengali’s. Keep up the good work mate.
Really wasn't expecting an hour long documentary about my beloved country. Thank you Cogito for covering our rich history! Greetings from Bangladesh!
No praise is enough for the love and dedication that have been put into making this video. As a Bengali, I felt an overwhelming surge of emotion while watching this. Please keep creating more of such content.
P.S. I was pleasantly surprised hearing few of the things like Haanshjaru and potatoes in Biriyani, which are supposed to be very much of an inside trivia within the Bengali community. I wonder how you came upon this? 😊
ধোর বাড়া, ওরা (ইংরেজরা) একসময় আমাদের উপর নির্যাতন করত, শাষণ করত। বাংলার নারীদের ধর্ষণ করত। আর এখন ঐ ইংরেজ এর বাচ্চা আমাদেরকে বানানো ইতিহাস দেখাচ্ছে যে ওরা নাকি আমাদের উন্নয়ন করেছে.! আর তোমার মত বোকাচোদা এই উল্ট ইতিহাস দেখে খুব proud চুদাও, "its make my day" চুদাও।
Cogito, you have made a beautiful video ❤ Bengalis are the third largest ethnic group in the world after the Arabs and Hans Chinese. Our ancestors have made numerous achievements and made us proud, not only in Asia but the entire world. Thank you so much for making this awesome tribute to our great civilisation.
Love from Calcutta (West Bengal), India 😊😊
Wow! I'am a Bangladeshi. I love my country Bangladesh. ❤❤❤🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩 ❤❤❤.
I wish you did not have to say your country is "India". I wish we all could call our country "Bangla", which was the case for thousands of years.
As a Bengali from Kolkata, WB, I really appreciate your efforts and the video is quite informative. Although it was a long video, it would have been great if you could add a bit about Bengali language movements in India, especially in Assam (still ongoing) and how Purulia became a part of West Bengal.
I can confidently recognize this video as the best and the most comprehensive documentary on the Bengalis. Kudos. Every Bengali student or anyone interested in the history and culture of this region should watch this video.
Never expected an hour long video on Bengal, I am a bengali and approve of this video. Yes there's lot more to the history. I often think if both of the Bengal were joined back together all of us could flourish again the way we always have in the past. The atrocities done to us so many years ago are felt to this day. However, we are still moving ahead and flourishing in one way or another in the world stage. I would surely watch a second part of this, just to put it out there! ❤❤👌
I was a proud Bengali Before (from east Bengal 🇧🇩), but after watching your detailed film, my love for my land and people has grown deeper - Thank you!!! hats off 👍✊🏿

This video should be a mandatory watch at every schools, for every single people in Bangladesh. Very well presented 🎉. Very proud to be a Bengali currently living in Canada.
Thank you so much! Not a lot of people understand the Bangladeshi or Bangali culture! I am so glad you used your platform to raise more understanding about us and our culture. I can assure you, Bangalis are the nicest and friendliest people ever! They are so welcoming and hospitable.
Much needed; much love.
Man, having a system of universities that early on is such an impressive feat! The Bengalis have been blessed with such rich and fascinating history. Through and through, Bengalis have shown they're strong, brave, and resilient people who kept fighting for what's right. I live in the NYC metro which has the most Bengalis in the US and I appreciate their cuisine, so it's cool to dive deep into their history! Fun fact: The huge white building shown around 0:12 is the Victoria Memorial in Kolkata. It was built between 1906 and 1921. As Queen Victoria wasn't just Queen of the UK but also the very first Empress of India, Lord Curzon, the then Viceroy of India, wanted such a grand structure and gardens that symbolized her grand reign in the British India capital.
It is the largest monument to a monarch anywhere in the world as it is 338 by 228 feet (or 103 by 69 m) and rises to a height of 184 feet/56 m, while the size of the gardens are 64 acres! The architect of the Victoria Memorial was William Emerson who also designed the All Saints Cathedral and Muir Central College in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh as well as the Crawford Market in Mumbai. The design is in the Indo-Saracenic revivalist style which uses a mixture of British and Mughal elements with Venetian, Egyptian, Deccani architectural influences. It uses white Makrana marble just like the Taj Mahal as it is meant to echo the Taj Mahal. The memorial also has several galleries, with a collection size of 50,000 things displayed!
Always proud to be Bengali...we have everything to be proud about...we should never fall into inferiority complex. From Bangladesh.
