Sunderban

The isolated Sunderban islands spread out in the bay of Bengal between  India and Bangladesh.
As the British put Indian peasants on the isles during the colonial days to protect the land from the dangers lying  in the sea, they could not foresee the fate of future generations
the four million inhabitants are fully dependent on agriculture and overpopulation makes things ever harder to handle.
