High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Bangladeshis are one of the largest immigrant communities in the United Kingdom. Significant numbers of ethnic Bengalis arrived as early as the 17th century, including Sylhetis, who mostly arrived as lascar seamen working on ships. Following the founding of Bangladesh in 1971, a large immigration to Britain took place during the 1970s, leading to the establishment of a British Bangladeshi community. Bangladeshis were encouraged to move to Britain during that decade because of changes in immigration laws, natural disasters such as the Bhola cyclone, the Bangladesh Liberation War against Pakistan, and the desire to escape poverty, and the perception of a better living led Sylheti men bringing their families. They initially experienced high rates of racial attacks and unemployment, but have since integrated into British society over the last several decades.
