Bangladesh Liberation War, or Pakistani Civil War of 1971

Years: 1971 - 1971

The Bangladesh Liberation War between West Pakistan (now Pakistan) and East Pakistan (now Bangladesh), from March 26 until December 16, 1971, starts as an uprising in East Pakistan led by the Mukti Bahini.

Indian support for the rebellion results in war between India and Pakistan (the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971), during which the Indian military and East Pakistanis decisively defeats the West Pakistani forces deployed in the East.

The war results in East Pakistan's independence as the new nation of Bangladesh
