Here are some facts about Sri lanka. In Indian hindu mythology - Ramayana - - the villain named Ravana imprisoned Sita from Rama and flew off to Srilanka. Later Rama rescued Sita. Some more interesting info based on web search.

----quote----
An island in the Indian Ocean off the southeast tip of India, Sri Lanka is about half the size of Alabama. Most of the land is flat and rolling; mountains in the south-central region rise to over 8,000 ft (2,438 m).

Indo-Aryan emigration from India in the 5th century B.C. came to form the largest ethnic group on Sri Lanka today, the Sinhalese. Tamils, the second-largest ethnic group on the island, were originally from the Tamil region of India and emigrated between the 3rd century B.C. and A.D. 1200. Until colonial powers controlled Ceylon (the country's name until 1972), Sinhalese and Tamil rulers fought for dominance over the island. The Tamils, primarily Hindus, claimed the northern section of the island and the Sinhalese, who are predominantly Buddhist, controlled the south.

I like the Sri Lankan Cricket team for their tough competition shown with other cricket playing nations.
