Quelle est la capitale commerciale et la plus grande ville du Sri Lanka ?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Colombo is the commercial capital and the largest city of Sri Lanka by population. It’s a city that never fails to amaze. Located on the west coast of Sri Lanka, it’s the largest city and the commercial capital of the country. The city is a bustling hub of activity, with a mix of modern life, colonial buildings, and monuments. It’s often referred to as the capital since Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte, the legislative capital, is within the urban area of Colombo. The city became the capital of the island when Sri Lanka was ceded to the British Empire in 1815, and it continued to serve as the capital when the nation gained independence in 1948. In 1978, administrative functions were moved to Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte, and Colombo was designated as the commercial capital. The name ‘Colombo’, introduced by the Portuguese in 1505, is believed to be derived from the classical Sinhala name meaning “port on the river Kelani”. According to the Brookings Institution, the Colombo metropolitan area has a population of 5.6 million, and 752,993 in the city itself. It’s the financial centre of the island and a popular tourist destination. So, if you’re ever in Sri Lanka, make sure to visit Colombo!<end_of_turn><eos>
