Answer 2

Belgium & Sri Lanka are democratic nations having diverse social setups. However, both nations took different approaches when it came to "sharing of power".

Explanation:

• The "power-sharing arrangement" in Belgium, though complex, is running smoothly over the years.
• By implementing a "power-sharing arrangement" which provided both with "equal opportunity" for the functioning of the government, Belgium took into account the interests of its two main ethnic groups-the Dutch and the French. The Belgians understood that only by granting the two groups equal representation in the government could they gain political harmony and reconciliation.
• Therefore, in Belgium there was no growing feelings of hatred towards the other group. The power sharing system in Belgium has been smooth over the years, although complicated.
• Sri Lanka had taken a different approach with regard to the sharing of resources. The Sinlankan govt was dominated  by the majority "Sinhala-speaking population", therefore ignoring the Tamil people. Sinhal was made the official language. Only Sinhalese people were given preferential policy for universities & govt job. Only one group consolidated control, which undermined the needs of the other communities, especially the Tamil people
• For Sri Lanka, this strategy was disastrous.  In Sri Lanka, civil war and political instability have been taking place over the years. The denial of power sharing led the nation to collapse.
