    Thanks so much to all the Sri Lankan Geograpeeps that took part in this one, Sinhalese, Tamil and even a Moor! But most of all thanks JENIL for being our awesome Co-host. You were one of the most animated and fun people we've ever had on the show! Welcome to the original KANDY kingdom, #SriLanka.
    Oh! And check out Hannah's Filmography Now episode with Sri Lankans Sonath and Sonal for extra info!

    I'm not Sri Lankan.
    I''m Greek but I have to point out that there was no mentioning of Asia's 1st woman head of state who was Sri Lankan!!!
    I'm refering to Queen Anula who reigned Sri Lanka from 47 BC until 42 BC.
    She is also called "The black widow" of all times because during her 5 years on the throne she got married to 5 different men and she killed them all by using poison, just because she was also a notorious nymphomaniac that she was always targeting to the next hottest man available around her after getting bored with the man she already was with!!!
    That's a hell of a story that shouldn't be avoided to my opinion 😉👍

Interesting link between Ancient SL and Greece. Ancient greeks called Sri Lanka Taprobane so they did know of its mysterious existence

      ALL THE BEST TO YOU, I have a sense of connection to your homeland in East India (Bihar and Odisha). It is where the ancestors of the Sinhalese people originate from during 6th century Kalinga period 😎 Bihar was home to one of the first Indian empire Magadha, Vajj was the first known republic in India (present day Bihar), Mauryan empire and Gupta empire had major ties to the region because of Pataliputra one of the best ancient cities of India, Buddha got enlightened in Bihar (Bodh Gaya) and hence is the holiest site of Buddhism. Nalanda university, one of India's greatest ancient institutions was in Bihar.
      Bihar is one of richest places of India and is underappreciated. More interesting than Delhi, Punjab and other Northern Indian regions in my opinion. All the best to Bihar and its people

    I’m the Lankan Moor from the video. Just wanted to say thanks Barbs for educating the World about 🇱🇰 because not many know about us tbh. Also for giving me the opportunity as a Moor to speak about our island. I just wanted to clear something up about my people because it can be confusing and unknown to many. The Moorish people in Sri Lanka are an actual ethnicity, not a branch of Tamils as shown in the pie graph. We came about during the arrival of Arab traders mainly from Yemen but also from other parts of the the Middle East and North Africa. These traders intermarried with Sinhalese women (and some Tamil) and that’s how us Moors came about. Now the reason as to why a lot of Moors speak Tamil is because the Arab traders did a lot of merchant work around the coastal areas of the island so Tamil was spoken to communicate with other traders in the northern parts of the Indian Ocean. Lots of Moors especially in Central, South and West parts of the island speak Sinhalese too. My family are mostly trilingual and some Moors speak Arabic. We speak a dialect of Tamil called Arwi too which has Arabic influence. Hope that clears it up Barbs 🙏🏽

    Sinhala is a very important language. It is not derived from languages of other countries. It is so sad to see that why some people dislike sinhala. It is really a beautiful language and I think that it is important to protect our language as Sri Lanka is the one and only country in the whole world that use and speak this language not like other languages. Thinking with mind and protecting our heritages and culture is important than fighting for useless things according to your personal preferences with fierce and bad thoughts.
