In the north and the southeast the land is more hilly and dry, and tea is grown. The Chittagong Hill Tracts have extensive hardwood forests. The vast river delta area is home to the dominant plains culture.

In 1998 an accord was reached between the armed tribal group Shanti Bahini and the government.
