Mostly Sri Lankan, Sinhalese and Tamils have migrated to various countries in the world. Due to war, and as a refugees many have left the country. In Victoria (Aus) has more than 45,000 Sri Lankan migrants, according to 2011 census records. (with 42% Buddhist, 12% Hindu and 40% Christian)That was one example. Now nearly 800,000 Sri Lankans easily lives in Australia. Only very few Muslims have migrated. In essence, nearly 1.5 to 2 million Sri Lankans have migrated to different countries.In 1988-89 and till 2008 due to war and other civil riots more than half million people died. Moistly Sinhalese and Tamils, and only very few Muslims.   Most Sinhalese families and Tamil families consists of 2 kids, very rarely you finds 3 and 4. Muslims have averagely 4 kids in each family. Now compare the stats and the growth percentages of ethnic groups. You will find a big gap.</blockquote>
