The muslim conquest of Bengal came under the leadership of Ikhtiar Uddin Muhammad Bin Bakhtiyar Khilji,who defeated the Sena king Laxmansena at his capital, Nabadwip in 1203 (1204?) The Deva family — the last Hindu dynasty to rule in Bengal — ruled briefly in eastern Bengal, although they were suppressed by the mid-fourteenth century.
As partition of British India into Hindu and Muslim dominions approached in 1947, Bengal again split into the state of West Bengal of secular India and a Muslim region of East Bengal under Pakistan (renamed East Pakistan in 1958)(1947 Partition of Bengal).
East Bengal became the eastern wing of Pakistan and later, with the disintegration of that country, Bangladesh.
The state is ling and narrow, running from the delta of the Ganges River system at the Bay of Bengal in the south to the heights of the Himalaya at Darjeeling in the north.
After 1947, the merger of native settlement began which ended with its final reorganization in 1956 when some Bengali speaking areas of a neighbouring state were transferred to west Bengal.
