LK — Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is an island nation in the Indian Ocean south of India, known for its rich Buddhist heritage, tea plantations, and diverse wildlife. Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte is the legislative capital, while Colombo is the commercial capital and largest city. The Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR) uses the ₨ symbol. For developers, the LK country code maps to si-LK for Sinhala and ta-LK for Tamil — both requiring unique script rendering (Sinhala script and Tamil script). The .lk domain and +94 calling code serve Sri Lanka. The country's long legislative capital name (Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte) is one of the longest capital city names in the world, making it an excellent edge case for testing text truncation in UI elements. Sri Lanka's bilingual Sinhala-Tamil requirement means applications must support two entirely different scripts. The dual-capital system (administrative vs. commercial) requires accurate representation in geographic databases.
