Chattogram Division, Administrative division in southeastern Bangladesh.

Chattogram Division spans across 34,530 square kilometers, encompassing eleven districts that include mainland territories and the Chittagong Hill Tracts region.

The division, established in 1829, initially served as an administrative headquarters for five eastern districts during the British colonial period in Bengal.

The division contains multiple ethnic communities speaking different languages, with Muslims representing 88 percent of the population, followed by Hindu and Buddhist populations.

The region operates under a Divisional Commissioner who manages 103 sub-districts, maintaining administrative control over both urban and rural territories.

This division contains Cox's Bazar, featuring an uninterrupted 120-kilometer sandy beach, and Saint Martin's Island with Bangladesh's single coral reef formation.
