This book explains how the processes of 'total territorial rule' at the core of the modern international system became normalised in Ceylon (Sri Lanka). It develops a decolonial framework informed by a 'pluriverse' of multiple ontologies of sovereignty to argue that the state itself is an outcome of imperial globalisation.
