The Republic of Maldives is a country consisting territorialy of a group of atolls in the Indian Ocean, south-southwest of India.

There are 1,196 islands spread over roughly 90,000 square kilometers of the Indian Ocean, making this one of the most disparate countries in the world. Maldives comprises some 1,900 islands in the Indian Ocean. The earliest settlers were probably from southern India. Indo-European speakers followed them from Sri Lanka in the fourth and fifth centuries BC. In the 12th century AD, sailors from East Africa and Arab countries came to the islands. Today, the Maldivian ethnic identity is a blend of these cultures, reinforced by religion and language. Originally Buddhists, Maldivians were converted to Sunni Islam in the mid-12th century. Islam is the official religion of the entire population. Strict adherence to Islamic precepts and close community relationships have helped keep crime low and under control. The official and common language is Divehi (the written script is called Thaana), an Indo-European language related to Sinhalese , the language of Sri Lanka. The writing system is from right to left. English is used widely in commerce and increasingly as the medium of instruction in government schools. Some social stratification exits on the islands.
