Bangladesh is divided into 8 divisions (bibhag) and 64 districts (jela, zila, zela), although, these have only a limited role in public policy.For the purposes of local government, the country is divided into upazilas (sub-districts), "municipalities" or town councils (pourashova), city corporations (i.e. metropolitan municipal corporations) and union councils (i.e. rural councils).
Coastline, roads, railroads, and place names are based on a 1996 CIA map (File:Bangladesh_LOC_1996_map.jpg). Topography data from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission. Relief shading is an embedded PNG raster, derived from the SRTM data using Perl. Bathymetry from NGDC ETOPO2. The data was processed in Perl and projected using Geo::Proj4.
This map uses embedded text that can be easily translated using a text editor. While creating this map I have drawn inspiration and reference from works of Rarelibra ( here ) and Usingha ( here ) and several online maps: LGED , GoB archive copy at the Wayback Machine , Banglapedia .
