Sri Lanka
Since 2015, Sri Lanka has been in the midst of a democratic transition that has created opportunities for political reform and reconciliation following decades of civil war. As Sri Lanka has become more stable, other countries have begun to see the island nation of strategic relevance as it sits at the center of the Indian Ocean— the halfway point between China and the Middle East.
