Abstract
Bangladesh is a flooding hotspot as 80% of Bangladesh is considered to be floodplain. It also has an extensive sea coastline, putting the nation at a high risk of experiencing periodic widespread damage. On average, in Bangladesh, about 18% of the country is flooded annually. However, in severe cases, the percentage of the total flooded can go up to 55%. Majority of the country's population live in rural areas.
