At least where I live, it seems like only those over the age of fifty care about the loss of the empire. The rest see it as one of the worst things ever to have happened in history.

The history of Bangladesh has been one of extremes, of havoc and peace, prosperity and privation . It has thrived under the ruddiness of cultural splendour and suffered under the pillages of war. The earliest remark of Bangladesh is generally found in the Hindu epic, the Mahabharata (the story of Great Battle-9th century B.C). Evidence also suggests that there was a strong Mongoloid presence as well. Soon after, in the 5th and 6th centuries B.C. came the Aryans from Central Asia and the Dravidians from occident India. Then came the Guptas, Palas, Senas, who were Buddhist and Hindus. From the 13th century A.D. the exodus of Muslim intruders and the tide of Islam plunged the Buddhist and Hindus untold 8th century. Sometimes there were independent rulers like the Hussain Shahi and Ilyas Shahi monarchs while at other times they reignd on behalf of the imperial throne of Delhi. From 15th century the Europeans, namely; Portuguese, Dutch, French and British traders exerted an economic influence over the region. British political rule over the region began in 1757 A.D. when the last Muslim ruler of Ben. gal was defeated at Palassey. In 1947 the country was partitioned into India and Pakistan. Present Bangladesh becomes the Eastern Wing of the then Pakistan. But the movement for autonomy for East Pakistan started within a couple of years because of language and cultural difference and economic discriminations between the two partitions . The seeds of independence were strewed through the Language Movement of 1952 to recognize Bengali as a state language. Ultimately the then East Pakistan emerged as a sovereign and independent state of Bangladesh in 1971 after nine month - long war of Liberation (starting on 26 March 1971) in which 3 million people courted martyrdom.

Nativists

The native Africans want to get even more rights to assure themselves of the freedom they fought for. They want to end or at least reduce the dominance of the Portuguese in the government and Catholicism in the countryside. Most of all, they prefer to establish friendly states nearby instead of annexing them.

Values: A stronger and fairer Parliament, Avoiding perils of Industrialism, preserve native culture and religion (vodoo), veto the "Slave Penalty", Isolationist
Spoiler:
The Abolitionists are the most adamant in getting rid of the Slave Penalty and establishing a stronger native culture. They do wish to see anti-slave Kongola to expand.
The Vodoo cultists wants everything but also desires industrialism.
The Gabonese want a larger say in Kongolan politics as first and foremost.
