The Edirimanne Corea Family Union (ECFU) is a group set up to 'foster interaction' among the members of the powerful Corea family in the island of Sri Lanka.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.dailynews.lk/2003/07/29/new26.html )〕 The Corea family is one of the leading families of Sri Lanka. They trace their ancestry to Dominicus Corea also known as Edirille Rala who was crowned King of Kotte and Sitawaka in Sri Lanka - Dominicus Corea was born in Colombo in 1565. ==Edirille Rala, King Dominicus Corea of Sri Lanka==
Dominicus Corea, the warrior king, rebelled against the colonial Portuguese forces and waged war against them.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://vernoncorea.wordpress.com/2011/07/17/king-dominicus-corea-of-kotte-article-by-deva-corea/ )〕 He was eventually captured by the Portuguese and executed on July 14, 1596, at the age of 31 in Colombo. "Such was the sad end of Domingos Corea, Edirimana Suriya Bandara, the greatest Sinhalese of his day," said Sri Lankan historian John M. Seneviratna. 'Great Warriors like Mayadunne, Veediya Bandara, Seethawaka Rajasinghe, Vimaladharmasuriya I, Senarath, Rajasinghe II, Nikapitiye Bandara and Edirille Rala who fought the Portuguese to preserve our territorial integrity and kept the Portuguese at bay despite all odds,' wrote Janaka Perera in the Asian Tribune.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.asiantribune.com/node/9442 )〕
