And there were quite a number of Tamil "Nilame" in that period. Actually Tamil (more precisely "Waduga") kings ruled the country for about 100 years after embracing Buddhism. By the time of 1800 there were so many Tail Nilames and Sinhalese Nilames were divided. Prince Kannasamy leapfrogged over prince Mutthusamy to the throne because it was a part of a conspiracy by a set of Sinhalese nilames who got support of the Tamil ones. Sl wouls have been a much different place if Prince Mutthusamy became the King, who was known to be a great tactician.</p></blockquote><p></p>
