The Greater Jessore region predominantly includes the districts of Jessore,Jhenaidah,Narail and Magura in Bangladesh,as well as the Bangaon subdivision of India. Nestled close to the Sundarbans,the region experienced human settlement early on. It served as the capital city of the Samatata realm and passed through several Buddhist and Hindu kingdoms such as the Palas and Senas. Jessore was ruled by Khan Jahan Ali of Khalifatabad,under the Muslim Sultanate of Bengal,who is credited with establishing the Qasbah of Murali and urbanising the region through advancements in transportation and civilization. Jessore later came to be ruled by various chieftains such as Pratapaditya and became familiar to contemporary European travellers as Chandecan before being annexed to the Mughal Empire in the seventeenth century. By 1757,the British East India Company had dominated and started to establish themselves in the region. British rule lasted up until 1947,with Jessore coming under the Provisional Government of Bangladesh from 1971 onwards.
