British Ceylon

In 1815 the British landed in this small island in the Indian ocean then known in various names Serendib,Seylan,Taprobane Lanka.Under the British there were many developments in the country .Railways were built, roads for commuting ,to bring the goods of produce to the harbour.There were several British organizations established as well .Schools were incorporated .To this day Sri Lanka remains on the world map because of this colonization .Although Sri Lanka gained its independance in 1948 as a single entity,The remains of colonization is evident .English being the language of trade and commerce more than half a century since the British left. There are many British exams available and study centre more than any other foreign country.That where I come in I was looking for study packages and i realised that if it were not for the British we would be something like Nepal.
