Indonesia |
|
A country of southeast Asia in the Malay
Archipelago including Sumatra, Java, Timor, Sulawesi, the Moluccas,
parts of Borneo and New Guinea, and many smaller islands. First settled
by Austronesian-speaking peoples from the Asian mainland, the islands
were the site of kingdoms allied with India before the arrival of Arab
traders (14th century) who introduced Islam, which became the dominant
religion. The Dutch East Indies Company controlled the territory from
1602 to 1798, when authority was turned over to the government of the
Netherlands. In 1945 Indonesia declared its independence, which was
finally achieved in 1949.
