The Tamil segment comprises two groups, Sri Lankan Tamils who are long-settled descendants from southeastern India and Indian Tamils recent immigrants from southeastern India, most of whom were migrant workers brought to Sri Lanka under British rule. Muslims, who trace their origin back to Arab traders of the 8th century, account for about 7.5 percent of the population.
