ANSWER:
In Belgium, the Dutch community were able to take advantage of its numeric majority and force its will on the German and Flemists speaking populace. This could have possibly further aggravated conflicts amongst the different communities. Also the nation could have been divided could, leading to a unequal partition of the nation. In addition, both the sides would have claimed control over Brussels. However, the constitution was rewritten several times to ensure equality. In Sri Lanka, the Sinhala community had much bigger majority and were able to force its will and wishes on the entire nation, which resulted in Civil war between the Sinhalese and Sri Lankan Tamils.
EXPLANATION:
The key elements of the Belgium’s power-sharing model is based on horizontal power sharing where power is shared amongst the executive, legislature, and judiciary and all these 3 placed on the same level and can exercise their powers. Similar to this model, the Belgium Constitution directs that the representation of French-speaking and Dutch-speaking representatives shall be alike in the central govt.
Some specific rules necessitate the help of a majority of councils from each linguistic group. Therefore, no specific association or group can take decisions individually. In Sri Lanka, the democratically elected govt. chose a set of majoritarian policies since they preferred Sinhala’s supremacy.
Some of the key measures taken were: Sinhala was declared as the nation’s official language, and the govt. adopted preferential policies and Sinhala candidates.This angered the Tamil Sri Lankans who felt alienated. Owing to this, the Tamil Sri Lankans started their own parties and initiated struggles for recognising and acknowledging Sri Lankan Tamils too in all decisions and to make Tamil the official language.
Numerous political organisations were established. They claimed for an autonomous Tamil Eeelam (State) in eastern and northern parts of Sri Lanka. All this resulted in a Civil War, thereby, causing distress in the country.
