Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In Sri Lanka there was distrust between the Sinhala and Tamil. These communities escalated their problems into a full-out civil war because Sinhala was declared as the only official language and they completely disregarded the Tamil. Besides this, the Sinhala had privilege over the other side in government jobs and almost all higher positions in the bureaucracy.
