The Chittagonian people ( or ) are an Indo-Aryan-speaking ethnocultural group native to the Greater Chittagong region of southeastern Bangladesh. They are widely considered a subgroup of the Bengalis. They live in Chittagong and Cox's Bazar districts of Bangladesh, and some also live in Tripura, Maungdaw and the Chittagong Hill Tracts.
The Chittagonian community traces its origins to the early medieval and modern periods of Bengal. Chittagong has been a major sea port since ancient times, with Arabs and Persians trading there by the 9th-13th centuries. Many Muslim saints and Sufi missionaries settled in the region after the conquest of Bengal (1204 CE) and especially after the 14th century, leaving a strong mark on local culture and religion. Until the 16th century Chittagong alternated between rule by the Buddhist Arakanese kingdom of Burma and then the Bengali Sultanate, after which it passed under Mughal administration (1666). Portuguese and Magh pirates operated along the coast in the 16th-17th centuries, and the Portuguese established a colonial foothold in Chittagong during that period. These long trade and conquest histories made Chittagong a melting pot, over time Arabs, Persians, Afghans, Arakanese (Maghs) and later British and other settlers intermarried with the local Bengalis.
During the British colonial period, Muslim Chittagonians living in northern Arakan (now Rakhine State, Myanmar) were often classified in official records as "Mohammedans", a term used by colonial administrators to denote the Muslim population. Among these communities, migrants from the Chittagong region of present-day Bangladesh were sometimes specifically identified as "Chittagonians" or "Chittagonian Mohammedans", distinguishing them from longer-settled Muslims in Arakan such as the Arakan Mahomedans, now known as "Rohingyas". The 1921 and 1931 colonial censuses described these groups with labels including "Chittagonian Mahomedans born in Burma" and "Chittagonian Mahomedans born outside of Burma". They were also known as "Indian Muslims" or "Arakanese Indians".
