What? No I mean actual colonization. You can look up the Mahaweli Development programme, it was specifically designed (under the guise of creating fertile land/pastures) to colonize more of the Sri Lankan region. "Somehow" there ended up being cities that were 94% Sinhalese and only Sinhalese-language was used in USAID made documents/guides/brochures, despite being the least used language among 3.
