Biman Bangladesh is the national airline of Bangladesh. The airline has an international route that reaches Asia, Europe and the United States. The airline is part of the Bangladesh Biman Corporation.
Biman Bangladesh started operations in 1972, when a DC_3 that had seen action in World War II was given to the company as a present by the Bangladesh Air Force. Soon after, a Boeing 707 and FokkerF-27 planes joined the airline's fleet, allowing Biman to begin international flights.
Bangladesh consists mostly of a low-lying river delta located on the Indian subcontinent with a largely marshy jungle coastline on the Bay of Bengal known as the Sundarbans, home to the (Royal) Bengal Tiger and one of the largest mangrove forests in the world.
Bangladesh is situated in the geographic region named The Ganges Delta (also known as the Ganges-Brahmaputra River Delta).
Bangladesh is ethnically homogenous, with Bengalis comprising 98% of the population, the rest belonging to the tribal people.
