    The document discusses the ongoing tensions and conflicts in Northern Ireland and Sri Lanka caused by differences in identity and ethnicity. In Northern Ireland, Catholics felt deprived of citizenship rights while Tamils in Sri Lanka felt deprived of voting rights and were made stateless, both as a result of British colonial policies that segregated and divided these groups in education, housing, and employment. This unfair treatment led these groups to seek support from alternative forces like the Tamil Tigers and contributed to ongoing tensions.
