Geographical location

Geographical location and environment of Bangladesh Bangladesh is a country in South Asia, extending from 26 ° 36 'north latitude to 20 ৪ 34' north latitude and from 8 ° 01 'east longitude to 92 ° 41' east longitude. The country is bordered by India to the west, north, and east. To the west is the Indian state of West Bengal. To the north are the states of West Bengal, Assam and Meghalaya. East Assam, Tripura, Mizoram. But to the east, besides India, there is a border with Myanmar (Burma). To the south is the Bay of Bengal. Geologically, the country is bounded on the north by the high Himalayan highlands, from where large rivers (Ganges, Brahmaputra, Meghna, etc.) formed by the flow of glacial water flow through Bangladesh and the rivers flow into the South Bay of Bengal. As the flow of river water increases during the monsoon season, the river overflows and reaches the locality, and the country is thus flooded almost every year. It has crossed the Tropic of Cancer through almost the middle of the country and the equatorial effect can be noticed in its climate. Annual rainfall is 1500-2500 mm (80-100 inches); At the eastern border this dimension is 3850 millimeters (more than 150 inches). Under normal conditions the average temperature is 25 ° Celsius.
