The Sinhalese–Portuguese War was a series of conflicts waged from 1527 to 1658 in Sri Lanka (then known to Europeans as Ceylon) between the native Sinhalese kingdoms against the Portuguese Empire.

In 1638 the war restarted when the Dutch East India Company intervened in the conflict, initially as an ally of the Sinhalese against the Portuguese, but later as an enemy of both sides.

  • الحرب السنهالية البرتغالية هي سلسلة من الصراعات نشأت منذ العام 1527 واستمرت حتى عام 1658، ودارت بين ممالك الشعب السنهالي المؤلفة من سيلان (سريلانكا حاليًا) وحلفائها ضد الإمبراطورية البرتغالية. سعى البرتغاليون إلى توسيع مراكز تجارتهم لتصل إلى كولمبو، والهدف هو إدراج سيلان ضمن الإمبراطورية البرتغالية النامية آنذاك. بحلول نهاية الحرب عام 1658، طُردت كافة القوات البرتغالية من الجزيرة، فانتهت بذلك سيلان البرتغالية. كانت مملكة كاندي آخر مملكة من الشعوب الأصلية موجودة في سيلان، وحكمت نحو نصف الأراضي. احتفظ الهولنديون بالمراكز السكانية الكبرى، وشكلوا سيلان الهولندية.
