This small island state is located in the southern part of Asia, east of Hindustan, with which it was once connected by the Adam's Bridge. More than 500 years have passed since the separation from the mainland and the acquisition of geographical independence. For political independence, the locals had to fight for a long time, and the last step to victory was the return of the historical name of Sri Lanka instead of the colonial name of Ceylon.
