The economy of Bangladesh is a developing market economy. It's the 39th largest in the world in nominal terms, 29th largest by purchasing power parity. In the first quarter of 2019, Bangladesh's was the world's seventh fastest growing economy with a rate of 7.3% real GDP annual growth. Dhaka and Chittagong are the principal financial centers of the country, being home to the Dhaka Stock Exchange and the Chittagong Stock Exchange; the financial sector of Bangladesh is the second largest in the subcontinent. Bangladesh is one of the world's fastest growing economy. In the decade since 2004, Bangladesh averaged a GDP growth of 6.5%, driven by its exports of ready made garments and the domestic agricultural sector. The country has pursued export-oriented industrialisation, with its key export sectors include textiles, shipbuilding and seafood, jute and leather goods, it has developed self-sufficient industries in pharmaceuticals and food processing. Bangladesh's telecommunication industry has witnessed rapid growth over the years, receiving high investment from foreign companies.

Bangladesh has substantial reserves of natural gas and is Asia's seventh largest gas producer. Offshore exploration activities are increasing in its maritime territory in the Bay of Bengal, it has large deposits of limestone. The government promotes the Digital Bangladesh scheme as part of its efforts to develop the country's growing information technology sector. Bangladesh is strategically important for the economies of Northeast India and Bhutan, as Bangladeshi seaports provide maritime access for these landlocked regions and countries. China views Bangladesh as a potential gateway for its landlocked southwest, including Tibet and Yunnan; as of 2019, Bangladesh's GDP per capita income is estimated as per IMF data at US$5,028 and US$1,906. Bangladesh is a member of the D-8 Organization for Economic Cooperation, the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation, the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, the World Trade Organization and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank; the economy faces challenges of infrastructure bottlenecks, insufficient power and gas supplies, bureaucratic corruption, political instability, natural calamities and a lack of skilled workers.

East Bengal—the eastern segment of Bengal—was a prosperous region. The Ganges Delta provided advantages of a mild tropical climate, fertile soil, ample water, an abundance of fish and fruit; the standard of living is believed to have been higher compared with other parts of South Asia. As early as the thirteenth century, the region was developing as an agrarian economy. Bengal was the junction of trade routes on the Southeastern Silk Road. Under Mughal rule, Bengal operated as a centre of the worldwide muslin and pearl trades. Domestically, much of India depended on Bengali products such as rice and cotton textiles. Overseas, Europeans depended on Bengali products such as cotton textiles and opium. Bengal shipped saltpeter to Europe, sold opium in Indonesia, exported raw silk to Japan and the Netherlands, produced cotton and silk textiles for export to Europe and Japan. Real wages and living standards in 18th-century Bengal were comparable to Britain, which in turn had the highest living standards in Europe.

During the Mughal era, the most important centre of cotton production was Bengal around its capital city of Dhaka, leading to muslin being called "daka" in distant markets such as Central Asia. Bengali agriculturalists learned techniques of mulberry cultivation and sericulture, establishing Bengal as a major silk-producing region of the world. Bengal accounted for more than 50% of textiles and around 80% of silks imported by the Dutch from Asia, for example. Bengal had a large shipbuilding industry. Indrajit Ray estimates shipbuilding output of Bengal during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries at 223,250 tons annually, compared with 23,061 tons produced in nineteen colonies in North America from 1769 to 1771, he assesses ship repairing as advanced in Bengal. Bengali shipbuilding was advanced compared to European shipbuilding at the time. An important innovation in shipbuilding was the introduction of a flushed deck design in Bengal rice ships, resulting in hulls that were stronger and less prone to leak than the structurally weak hulls of traditional European ships built with a stepped deck design.

The British East India Company duplicated the flushed-deck and hull designs of Bengal rice ships in the 1760s, leading to significant improvements in seaworthiness and navigation for European ships during the Industrial Revolution. The British East India Company, that took complete control of Bengal in 1793 by abolishing Nizamat, chose to develop Calcutta, now the capital city of West Bengal, as their commercial and administrative center for the Company-held territories in South Asia; the development of East Bengal was thereafter limited to agriculture. The administrative infrastructure of the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries reinforced East Bengal's function as the primary agricultural producer—chiefly of rice, teak, sugar cane and jute — for processors and traders from around Asia and beyond. After its independence from Pakistan, Bangladesh followed a socialist economy by nationalising all industries, proving to be a critical blunder undertaken by the Awami League government; some of the same factors that had made East Bengal a prosperous region became disadvantages during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

One day, a village kid tells the other villagers, they decide to burn Bhairavudu/Sudalai's house. Angry, he left the village to continue his killing spree with his younger brother.

White Bermudians or Bermudians of European descent, are Bermudians whose ancestry lies within the continent of Europe, most notably the British Isles and Portugal. Around 31% of the population of Bermuda is white; the White population of Bermuda made up the entirety of the Bermuda's population, other than a black and an Indian slave brought in for a short-lived pearl fishery in 1616, from settlement'til the middle of the 17th Century, the majority until some point in the 18th Century. The majority of the white settlers arrived from England as indentured servants or tenant farmers, as most of Bermuda's land was owned by absentee landlords who remained in England as shareholders in the Virginia Company and its offshoot the Somers Isles Company. White Irish Gaels were sent to Bermuda after the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland that followed the English Civil War. Described as'prisoners-of-war', these Irish men and women were removed from Ireland involuntarily, sold into indentured servitude on arrival in Bermuda.

Small numbers of Scots were sent to Bermuda in the same way after Cromwell's invasion of Scotland. The Irish were ostracised by the English whites, were found so troublesome that their further import was banned. By the middle of the 18th century and the Native American slaves sent to Bermuda after the conquest of their homelands, had merged, with the free and enslaved blacks, with Bermuda's population boiled down to two demographic groups: White and Coloured; the population of Bermuda on 17 April 1721, was listed as 8,364, composed of: "Totals:—Men on the Muster roll, 1,078. Blacks; the Population of Bermuda in 1727 included 3,877 coloured. By 1871 the permanent population included 7,376 coloured; the term coloured was used in preference to black as anyone, of wholly European ancestry was defined as white, leaving everyone else as coloured. This included the multi-racial descendants of the previous minority demographic groups, as well as the occasional Jew, South-Asian, East Asian or other non-White and non-Black Bermudian.

It was by this method that coloured Bermudians came to outnumber white Bermudians, despite starting off at a numerical disadvantage, despite low Black immigration prior to the latter 19th century (other contributing factors included the scale of white relative to black emigration in the 17th and 18th centuries, the greater mortality of whites from disease in the late 17th century, large-scale West Indian immigration, which began, like Portuguese immigration, in the 19th century to provide labourers for the new export agriculture industry and expansion of the Royal Naval Dockyard. The Black West Indians, unlike the Portuguese, were British citizens and not obliged to leave Bermuda, as many Portuguese were, at the end of a contracted period. At some point after the Second World War, the practice became for those with any degree of sub-Saharan African ancestry to be defined as black, with Asian and other non-white Bermudians defined as separate racial groups. On Census returns, only in recent years have Bermudians been given the option to define themselves by more than one race, although there was considerable opposition to this from many Black leaders who discouraged Black Bermudians from doing so.

The majority of Bermuda's overall ancestry remains European, as most black Bermudians are of European ancestry, but as only those of European ancestry are considered white, the largest demographic group is black, despite those of sub-Saharan African ancestry being only a negligible part of the population. This history has been well understood from the written record, was confirmed in 2009 by the only genetic survey of Bermuda, which looked at the black population of St. David's Island showed that the African ancestry of black Bermudians is from a band across southern Africa, from Angola to Mozambique, similar to what is revealed in Latin America, but distinctly different from the blacks of the British West Indies and the United States.68% of the mtDNA lineages of the black islanders were found to be African, with the two most common being L0a and L3e, which are sourced from populations spread from Central-West to South-East Africa. These lineages represent less than 5% of the mtDNA lineages of blacks in the United States and the English-speaking West Indies.

They are, common in Brazil and the Spanish-speaking countries of Latin America. L3e, by example, is typical of! Kung speaking populations of the Kalahari, as well as of parts of Mozambique and Nigeria; the modern nation where it represents the highe

A by-election was held in the UK Parliament constituency of West Tyrone on 3 May 2018, following the resignation of Barry McElduff, the Member of Parliament since 2017. McElduff had become embroiled in a social media controversy which had resulted in his suspension from Sinn Féin on 8 January, he announced his resignation on 15 January 2018. This was the first by-election held during the 57th UK Parliament, elected in the 2017 general election, it was the first Parliamentary by-election held in Northern Ireland since the Mid Ulster by-election in 2013. Sinn Féin candidate Órfhlaith Begley held the seat with a reduced majority, compared to the June 2017 snap election. On 5 January 2018, sitting MP Barry McElduff tweeted a video of himself in a shop with a loaf of Kingsmill bread on his head, asking where the shop kept its bread; as it coincided with the 42nd anniversary of the Kingsmill massacre—where republicans murdered ten Protestant civilians—unionists accused him of mocking the massacre and the video was criticised, including by nationalists.

Democratic Unionist Party leader Arlene Foster said "mocking is depraved" and called the video "inhuman". McElduff deleted it and apologised, saying he was not alluding to the massacre and offering to meet the victims' families. On 8 January, Sinn Féin apologised for McElduff's actions, condemned the video, suspended him from Sinn Féin for three months. McElduff announced on 15 January, he was appointed the Steward and Bailiff of the Three Hundreds of Chiltern on 16 January 2018, a mechanism by which an MP's resignation is formalised. The constituency of West Tyrone was created for the 1997 election and has been held by Sinn Féin since 2001; the seat is overwhelmingly nationalist, with nationalist parties winning over 50% of the vote since the seat was created. Despite this, the nationalist vote has traditionally been split between the Social Democratic and Labour Party and Sinn Féin, whilst the unionist parties have been more willing to make pacts to increase their chances of victory. Ordinarily, the writ of election for a vacant seat is moved by the party of the outgoing MP, but as Sinn Féin do not take their seats in the House of Commons they were unable to do so.

In their absence, the writ was instead moved by Julian Smith. On 28 March, the writ of election was passed by the House of Commons; the election was scheduled for 3 May. After the election was called, these was discussion about the possibility of a non-partisan victims' candidate standing against Sinn Féin; as Sinn Féin won a majority of the vote at the last election, a unity candidate would be unlikely to win without support across both the nationalist and unionist communities. Potential candidates included Kevin Skelton and Sharon Gault, both of whom lost relatives in terrorist attacks during the Troubles. Ulster Unionist Party leader Robin Swann endorsed the proposal, calling for a “non-partisan candidate who will be a voice for victims to contest this seat against Sinn Féin”. Local Democratic Unionist Party MLA Tom Buchanan suggested that a cross-community candidate was unlikely, given that his party had not been approached about standing down. Further criticism of the idea was levelled by Alan McBride – a relative of two Shankill Road bombing victims – describing the idea of an agreed victims' candidate as "potentially toxic".

By late March the chances of a unity candidate being nominated were described as'remote'. Kevin Skelton – who had earlier expressed his willingness to stand as a unity candidate – noted that he had not been approached by any party to stand; the Ulster Unionists, who had called for a non-partisan candidate, were understood to have unsuccessfully approached a different person to ask them to be a'victims candidate'. Omagh bomb campaigner Michael Gallagher voiced his disappointment, acknowledged that there had not been a positive response to the idea. No unity candidate was nominated and each of Northern Ireland's major parties fielded a candidate instead. Nominations to stand in the by-election closed on 10 April 2018. 26-year-old local solicitor Órfhlaith Begley was selected as the Sinn Féin candidate at a party convention on 25 February. She is the daughter of a long-serving Sinn Féin councillor on Omagh District Council; the DUP announced. He had contested the seat in the 2017 general election.

The SDLP were understood to be preparing to contest the by-election. Former candidate and local MLA Daniel McCrossan released a statement in March condemning the fact that two months had passed from McElduff's resignation without a by-election date being fixed. McCrossan stated in early April, he was announced as the SDLP candidate on 9 April. Ulster Unionist Party leader Robin Swann expressed a preference for a unity candidate instead of a candidate from his own party. Despite this, it was acknowledged that the party would have to explore "other options" in the event that such a candidate was not agreed upon, they nominated Omagh councillor Chris Smyth as their candidate. He accepted the nomination with "mixed emotions", expressing disappointment at the lack of a non-partisan and cross-community candidate; the Alliance Party declined to support a'victims candidate', with party leader Naomi Long giving her reasons to victims campaigner Kevin Skelton in a letter. Stephen Donnelly was subsequently announced as the Alliance candidate at the party conference on 24 March.

Cannabis legalisation campaigner Barry Brown had announced his intention to contest the by-election as the Ci
