Answer:

Bangladesh

Step-by-step explanation:

On March 26, 1971, Awami League leader Sheikh Mujibur Rahman declared East Pakistan's independence as the state of Bangladesh, following a deadly crackdown by the Pakistan Army. East Pakistan was divided from West Pakistan on December 16, 1971, and formed Bangladesh, a newly independent country. Eastern Command was dismantled, as were civilian institutions and paramilitary groups.
