Memorable Quote (from the book)
"Maps may look fixed but they are often the first battlegrounds of democracy."

Translation (Sinhala):
"සිතියම් ස්ථාවර ලෙස පෙනෙන්න පුළුවන් නමුත් එවා ප්රජාතන්ත්රවාදයේ පළමු සටන් භූමී විය හැක."

Translation (Tamil):
"வரைபடங்கள் நிலைத்தவை போல் தெரிந்தாலும், அவை பெரும்பாலும் ஜனநாயகத்தின் முதல் போர்க்களமாகின்றன."
