It is a country that struggled for independence from British control, similar to the United States, gaining independence in 1948. Up until 1972, Sri Lanka was named Ceylon. Sri Lanka is a small island (about the size of West Virginia) located off the coast of India in Asia. The country has a diverse landscape, with coastal plains in the northern part of the country and hills and mountains in the southern part. Located on the southwestern coast is the largest city and capital, Colombo. This small, globally ignored island has a population of 20.1 million people with the most prominent religion being Buddhism (U.S. Department of State, 2008, http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/5249.htm). Being able to understand globally ignored countries such as Sri Lanka is important for children in the United States.
