What's next after protests forced Bangladesh's prime minister to quit and flee the country?
What began as peaceful protests by students in Bangladesh against a quota system for government jobs eventually turned into an uprising that forced Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to resign and flee the country by helicopter.
Now, opposition leaders and the country's military are talking about appointing an interim government that is expected to organize new elections in what critics of Hasina say is a restoration of democracy.
The end to Hasina's 15 years in power came after weeks of violent unrest during which nearly 300 people died, according to local media reports.
