I'm looking for some useful information about West Bengal. Could you assist me? 
 Hi! I can definitely help with that. West Bengal is a state in India and it's actually in the eastern part of the country. Would you like to learn about Wast Bengal's Geography? 
 Eh I'm more interested in the history actually. 
 Alright, not a problem! In 1950 the Princely State of Cooch Behar merged with West Bengal, and in 1955 the former French enclave of Chandannagar that has been passed into Indian control was integrated into West Bengal. Even Portions of Bihar were merged with West Bengal. 
 Wow I didn't know that. Anything else? 
 I do have a little more information on West Bengal History. West Bengal was partitioned along religious lines when India gained its independence in 1947. In 1974 Influxes of millions of refugees flooded into West Bengal because of the Bangladesh Liberation War, this caused a huge strain on West Bengal's infrastructure. 
 It's terrible that war must always be a part of any destination's history. On a brighter note how is the education ran over there? 
 Definitely, agree. The education is pretty interesting! The state government supported the creation of West Bengal University of Technology in 2003. They also created West Bengal State University, Gour Banga University, and West Bengal University of Health and Science. 
 That's a ton of educational development. Anything else interesting about their education systems? 
 Unfortunately, there isn't much more I can say about West Bengal's educational development, except Kolkata, the capital of West Bengal, played a major role in pioneering the development of modern education in India. 
 Oh, okay. That is still somewhat about their educational system, just how it came to be. Thank you so very much for all of this useful but interesting information. 
 You are very welcome! Have a great day!
