As a Sri Lankan, I claim the north and east (and the rest of the country) as my homeland. Happy?
Hunchback,
We Tamils don't recognize the word Sri Lankan. We don't even use the word Sri Lanka to refer this Island in Tamil. Actually we hate the word Sri Lanka, and the Sinhalese unanimously change the name without the consent of Tamils. Therefore, we don t care about it. Sri Lanka is the word borrowed from Sanskrit to refer this island by the Sinhalese. Your Sri Lanka got nothing to do with our Tamil Eelam.
