Terminology and naming dispute

Various terms are used to describe the different (and sometimes overlapping) geographical and political areas of the proposed Comilla division. In brief, the main terms and their simple explanations are as follows:

  • Geographical terms:
  • Samatata (or Samatat) ({{lang-bn|links=no|সমতট}}); was an ancient kingdom. Greater Comilla region and greater Nokhali region were within The Kingdom of Samatata.Geographically, the proposed Division is made up of two distinct cultural regions – Greater Comilla and Greater Noakhali
    • Greater Comilla, ({{lang-bn|links=no|বৃহত্তর কুমিল্লা}})- Established as the Tippera or Tipperah district of Bengal by the British in 1790[9] and later renamed as Comilla in 1960.[10] It included the Sub-divisions of Brahmanbaria and Chandpur which eventually became separate districts in 1984.
    • Greater Noakhali ({{lang-bn|links=no|নোয়াখালী}});- The ancient name of Noakhali is Bhulua. The Noakhali district was created by the British Indian Government in 1787. It included the Sub-divisions of Lakshmipur and Feni which eventually became separate districts in 1984.
  • Roshnabad (or Rowshanabad) ({{lang-bn|links=no|রোসনাবাদ}}): (roughly equating to the proposed Comilla Division, excluding Rangamati Hill District). It was a district level administrative unit (Chakla) in Bengal Subah during Mudhal period.
  • Tippera ({{lang-bn|links=no|ত্রিপুরা}}); the proposed Comilla division was established under the rule of East India Company in 1765 as a district.

History

The present Greater Comilla was once under ancient Kingdom of Samatata and was joined with Tripuri Kingdom. Lalmai Mainamati was ruled by Deva dynasty (eighth century AD), and (during tenth and mid-eleventh century AD). In 1732, it became the center of the Bengal-backed domain of Jagat Manikya.[11]

The Peasants Movement against the king of Tripura in 1764, which originally formed under the leadership of Shamsher Gazi is a notable historical event in Comilla.[12] It came under the rule of East India Company in 1765 and was established as Tippera district (also known as Chakla (administrative division) Roshnabad) in 1790. Later, it was reorganized in three phases into six districts.

Administrative districts

{{Unreferenced section|date=January 2017}}

The Division will be subdivided into six districts (zilas) and thence into 59 sub-districts (upazilas). The six districts listed below comprise the north-western portion (37.6%) of the present Chittagong Division, while the remaining five districts (zilas) comprise the south-eastern portion (62.4%) being separated by the lower (or Bangladeshi) stretch of the Feni River.
