Bangladesh is a country in South Asia, located east of India on the coast of the Indian Ocean. It shares land borders with India and Burma.[1]
The country's wizarding world was governed by the Bangladeshi Ministry of Magic. Quidditch was not very popular within this area, because witches and wizards here tended to use the flying carpet; however, the sport and broomsticks did have some fans among young witches and wizards on the street.[2]
