Question

Look at the maps of Belgium and Sri Lanka. In which region, do you find concentration of different communities?

Answer 1

The maps show the regions of Belgium and Sri Lanka with the concentration of different communities:

Belgium:

The different communities are concentrated mainly in three regions:

1. Flemish Region (Dutch-speaking): This is the yellow area on the map.
2. Walloon Region (French-speaking): This is the red area on the map.
3. Brussels-Capital Region (Bilingual - French and Dutch): This is the striped area.

Therefore, the concentration of different communities is clearly visible in these distinct regions: Dutch speakers mostly in the Flemish region, French speakers primarily in the Walloon region, and a mixed community in Brussels-Capital.

Sri Lanka:

1. The island has a concentration of different ethnic communities mainly in the Northern and Eastern parts.
2. The Tamil natives are concentrated in the Northern and Eastern regions of Sri Lanka.
3. The Sinhalese (majority) are concentrated mostly in the Southern and Central parts.

In Sri Lanka, the Tamil community is primarily located in the north and east, while the Sinhalese community dominates the rest of the country.

Therefore, the regions that show concentration of different communities are:

1. Belgium: Flemish Region, Walloon Region, and Brussels-Capital Region
2. Sri Lanka: Northern and Eastern regions for Tamil community; other parts mainly Sinhalese.
