Hi there!!

*Sri Lanka has a diverse population..

*The major social groups are the Sinhala speakers (74 percent) and the Tamil speakers (18 percent).

* Among Tamils there are two subgroups. Tamil natives of the country are called 'Srilankan Tamils' (13 percent). The rest, whose forefathers came from India as plantation workers during colonial period, are called 'Indian Tamils'.

* Most of the Sinhala speakers are Buddhists, while most of the Tamils are Hindus or Muslims.

*There are about 7 percent Christians, who are both Tamil and Sinhala...
