In retrospect I wish I’d mentioned a few more things in this video. It’s a bit of a hodgepodge of information I had complied for random facts videos and later realized I had enough to turn it into an entire Indonesian video. With little more thought or research I unintentionally covered mostly topics that related to the western world. If you scroll through the comments you’ll see tons of other examples of how Indonesia has influenced the world. I plan to make more videos on Indonesia and it’s surrounding area. This was in a way my entry point into learning more and covering more of the region. Edit: spelling
Many thanks on covering Indonesia and hope you can do the rest of the SEA region as well Southeast Asia has lots of interesting geography, culture and history but it remains fairly unknown and underrated, as its largely overshadowed by East Asia and South Asia to an extent, so its nice to see the region get some exposure and have fun learning more about SEA!
Unbelievable. One thing I cannot stand about western world is your dietary are so poor and it all effects your intelligence and your horrible body odors, too much consuming animals, too much cheese/yogurt/etc those cow's milk belong to their cubs, and alcohol like every fucking where. Disgusting people and everything. So yes, saying the truth is considered as spreading hatred by very poor very dumb westen world domination RUclips and so on. Thanks for the reminder to never return to those even the lowest intelligence in the world ;) Even world map is inaccurate, wrong since Mercator projection 1569, Real Indonesia is Huge as Russia but even much richer. To me Europe, USA, etc are the real third world. As I always state: Thus not a complete multiracial not multilingual never been living around the world all alone since childhood are just the same never evolved dumb apes stuck inside your tiny boxes your entire life and not learning from the past to evolve better.
Indonesia also indirectly influenced Belgian independence. The Java War of 1825 - 1830 drained Dutch finances so that they were unable to maintain their colony in Belgium.
@@Jack-Handsi mean colony is just another state, the reason why non EU called it colonialism is because it's non christian world and racism is included.
@@Jack-Hands Well a colony is a pretty broad term, The Dutch themselves used to be the colony of the Spanish under the Hasburgs (and at that time The Spanish were not too far away from he Dutch as the Spanish Hashburgs also controlled Austria which was pretty big at that time) and the Dutch gained their independence after years of religious wars of independence (cause they were majority protestants which rebelled against the catholic rules and got their help from the British). So Belgium being a Dutch colony is not a long stretch, while Belgium technically is a mix of the Dutch, German, and French but they still were majority catholic at that time.
@@Jack-Hands i am not talking about religion either but civilization design, everyone is monarchy within the region, what's make you think ppl know republic as a concept? because every colony of christian monarchy was design with republic, matter a fact christianity is the bridge for the non european world. not everybody as priviledge as japan to have education and free access to EU without being force to be christian as early as 16 century, let alone recognizing sovereign state.
Also, the presence of both Middle Eastern and Italian intermediaries in the trade routes to South Asia and Southeast Asia (including Indonesian archipelago) motivated European powers to seek alternative routes to bypass these middlemen. This desire to find alternative trade routes which would allow direct access to Asian goods, including spices, was one of the key drivers behind European exploration to the West, to the new world of Americas.
As an indonesian, all of this facts are true and well researched. You even included the how "unique" dutch colonialism compared to the spanish/ Portuguese one. Especially their rather opportunistic strategy. It's a fact that many of indonesian don't even know, but if you study indonesian history, that is true, and even contributed to the preservation of some local religions (bali for example)
also, needed to be added how the dutch took advantage of the greedy and as*licking locals to work for them. The Dutch didnt want their hands dirty and they employed these greedy locals to prevent them from directly in touch with the locals (inlanders they called). because these locals wouldnt be as obedient. they were even aware of the corruption that ran rampant amongst these greedy people (the residents, municipal leaders/bupatis all the way to the royal families) and the Dutch even often supported these people as they are aware of the local custom where the commoners bow down and will do everything that these local leaders told them to do even though if they werent paid enough.
@@coffeesweet1its actually one of the most effective tactics of conquering that is still employed till today since the days of the romans, divide et impera. Make the locals fight each other. Corrupt some leaders with money and power to make them loyal to you, and the rest will follow. You could also teach them to be corrupt, steal tax money, etc. So then their community will fall apart or at least stagnate on their own.
@@coffeesweet1what do you mean? What you describe is literaly "divide et impera" that is always taught at history class in Indonesia. Don't blame the history class curriculum when you're sleeping in class. Edit: wrong reply, I mean to reply the guy below you
As a Dutch, I feel deep connection to Indonesian history and culture. In the past, the World just simply called these archipelago as "part of India" or "East Indies". And in the any ancient and medieval history, Indonesian people seems like any remote area for many big societies. Yet I believe Indonesians had part of world societies without we realized it. It's because of toponym. For Javanese people, Indonesian archipelago was called as "Nusantara", and the various ethnic groups living there didn't have any precise name for it. For Malay people, Sumatra was called "Suvarnadvipa". For Sundanese, Sumatra was called "Srivijaya". And also for any world explorer. For Greek people, some of these islands (probably Sumatra and Java) was called "Chryse and Argyre", and "Chersonese Aurea" for Malay Peninsular area. For Arab and Persian, they called Sumatra as "Zabaj" and "Siribuza". For Cambodian, they called Java as "Javadvipa". Medieval Japanese called Borneo as "The Southern Forest Island". During the Portuguese and Spanish colonial, Japanese also called Maluku as "Oriental Spice Islands". In Latin, Sumatra was called "Gamispola". Some of European explorers wrongly named these place by their native tongue like "Camotora" (Portuguese for Sumatra), "Borneo" (British for Brunei - and now for all entire Borneo island), "Celebes" (French for Sulawesi, adopted by the Dutch), "Mollucas" (British for Maluku, the Dutch named it "Molukkers"), etc. And I believe there are more names that refer to Indonesian in the ancient documents and accounts. For the native Indonesians in the ancient back then, they didn't need anymore land outside Indonesia like Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, or Europe. They already lived in the heaven-like place. That's why they also seems like remote people. But the big kingdoms already had bilateral relationship with both the entire archipelago and outside archipelago.
we still suffer from dutch and VOC gruesome colonization. It might not written in modern history VOC and dutch colonization method with devide at impera, which make Indonesian sultanates fight each other still remains until this day. and also corruption culture among government officials can be traced back from early dutch colonization. Also dutch army still trying to invade Indonesia even after we declared independence. and Netherlands government never acknowledge our independence day until just recently.
@@mikescarlet4261 Devide at impera? That's not Dutch type of colonialism, dude. Firstly, it was a system of merchantilism that provides a space for any Catholic Church missionaries to follow a group of merchants to trade in a far market. Then it became a slogan for Portuguese, Spanish, and French colonies (as they were Catholics denomination). The slogan is a Latin paraphrase used by Roman Catholic liturgy. That's quite funny if you said the Dutch also used this slogan, because most Dutchmen were Calvinists, they even stereotypically "Anti-Catholicism". And we can see the proof. Whenever you find any ex-Portuguese and Spanish colonies, you can see the ex-colony adopts so many either Portuguese or Spanish culture. Not only outfit and colloquial customs, even the religion and language. If you're Indonesian, you can look at the Philippines and East Timor. Strong Spanish cultures are easily found in the Philippines, and strong Portuguese cultures are also easily found in East Timor. That's devide et impera. Comparing to any ex-Dutch colony, ex-Dutch colonies don't adopt strong Dutch cultures like Indonesia, West India (Bengal), and South Africa. You will only find a little tiny Calvinists there. The Dutch don't care about spreading of Christianity/Calvinism whatsoever. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide_and_rule

There's also the fact that due to the bad weather caused bu the Mount Tambora eruption, Napoleon lost the battle of waterloo because the bad weather made the terrain of Waterloo to be muddy.
Tambora erupted 5th of April, Waterloo was on 18th June. Too short for Tambora to have effect in NorthWestern Europe, and there were only 2 days of heavy rain in June 1815, so not unusual weather. Unfortunately for Napoleon, it was the 17th and 18th, the very days he was trying to trap the British-Dutch-Germans, before the beaten Prussian come back.
Looking at this video over a plate with nasi goreng, sambal oelek, saté ajam, kroepoek, seroendeng, atjar tjampoer and koe loe kai, makes me realize Indonesia shaped more than what you mentioned... Going to get some spekkoek, vanilla ice, and java coffee at the toko for tomorrow to go after the leftovers. Thanks for another great video!
Thank you! Maybe in the future I’ll talk more about cultural influences. I need to try more Indonesian food first. There isn’t a lot in my corner of the world.
Knowing that someone still using the old spelling in typing Indonesian food is very odd but interesting... (for Indonesian writing ajam for ayam and oelek for ulek means you used old spelling)
Indeed Indonesia is very unique and totally underestimated. Its blessed with stunning nature of all varieties. Its so rich in minerals and metals, oil, gas, you name it. I emigrate 20 years ago to indonesia, I found my luck here and will continue to contribute my knowledge to help its kind people and the country itself.

The first time I was the attraction of the desa, meanwhile that got less and less and I can have a normal live there, Actually the color of skin does not really matter, its the inner beauty, the kind heart and friendliness, that attract people to each other.

Indonesia has anknown the ships history, probably the oldest trade by sea on earth.. China start sea armada on 10th AD.. Borobudur shown ships pictures build on 7-8th AD.. This is truly butterfly effect..
And also, the experts says that The eruption of Mount Samalas in 1257 in lombok, Indonesia has caused a chain of events that resulted the black death plague in 1300s

Long before any european sailor sailing the ocean, ancient sailor from modern indonesia had already sailing the world ocean except to three places, which is eastern and western arctic seas and antarctic sea Ancient indonesian sailors had developing navigation technique by reading the stars that still used until now, also had developing shipbuilding technology that gave birth to Djung Ship Djung ship are the type of ship specialy designed to sail far away from the coast. There are many class of djung ship. But, two of the most famous class are Djung Malay that developed by Srivijaya empire in sumatra and Djung Java that developed by Majapahit empire in java Djung Malay are the early design of Djung java and it's used both as cargo ship and warship. Unlike most european ship at the same time that have length up to 40 meters, Djung Malay have length up to 80 meters while Djung Java have length up to 150 meters. Both ship are considered as super difficult to sunk in which Djung Java is impossible to sunk. This due to wood material that used to build this two ship are known to this day due to it's hardness, which is iron wood, coconut wood and teak wood. They no using random wood of this three wood, instead they choose the old tree and hardest part of the tree to make the ship. There is no record that explain any Djung Java successfuly sunk or heavily damaged even by newly invented Canon. With Djung ship, ancient indonesian sailor had successfuly sailing to american continent (east, west, north, central and south coast except the arctic and antartic circle), euopean coast up to western france, mediteranean sea, brazilian coast, australian coast and japanese coast. If you look at temple ruin in java and sumatra, you will find reliefs resembling cultures, natures and plants from different continents From borobudur temple reliefs you can find north american cactus and native central american reliefs. There is also temple that resemble american pyramid, inca/mayan head statue and such Also, did you know that you can find many plants that native to south east asia grow in amazonian jungle such as banana? This type of south east asian plants that you can find in amazonian forest are the type of plants that can't survive the salt water. They will rot if submerged in salt water for a long time. So it's impossible for them to grow naturaly in amazon through ocean current. Means there is a contact between south east asia and amazonian kingdom(s)
@@wuvme9354 one of them was, Hawaii name derived from Jawa'i / Java'i. native Hawaiian people was descendants from Javanese people. it was Spanish troops who then calls them Hawaii, as they pronounce J as H.
Djung Malay are the early design of Djung java? threre is no jung malay. only jung jawa, originaly from java, made from Javanese teak wood. its endemic. The djong, jong, or jung is a type of sailing ship originating from Java, Indonesia that was widely used by Javanese, Sundanese, and later, by Malay sailors.
It's always the foreigner that had the passion to pursue knowledge and the origin of something which lead to the statement of, 'they know us more than we know ourself" Great work of you kind sir
@@AHappyCub maybe for you Opportunity is everywhere, in Indonesia we said "throw some stick and stone and it will grow nonetheless" we lived in the unimaginable abundant amount of resources compared to the rest of the world, but that became our comfort zone, our weakness, "we literally have everything here" and that's why I choose passion, because I know the vast majority of my people didn't have that.
@@vaztro2344 Passion without opportunity means nothing, many in the Western world are able to do it because they have build that opportunity through colonialism, while the rest of us have to start back from scratch, I'll take sometime before we can do it too through our own hands, that is unless US spread their grubby hands just like what happen to us in 1965
The Buginese people from Indonesia also been doing trade with Aborigines Australia long before British and Dutch found the continent. Those people have quite big ship too back then.
I'm an indonesian. One thing also to add is about the impact on research of evolution from darwin. If you search wallace line or alfred russel wallace, his observation include indonesia. I've read his book and if you guys intrested perhaps you can read it too!
Wow! I learned so much from this video! I admittedly know very little about Indonesia, but this gave me a great starting point. I didn’t know about the Toba eruption or the subsequent genetic bottleneck. Can’t wait to check out more of your channel. Congratulations on your newborn 😊
Can’t believe how big Indonesia is. It is the 4th largest country, largest archipelago, most populated island and largest Muslim country in population. I always hear of Philippines, Cambodia or Thailand but never Indonesia
Indonesia is already cozy, why would you want to move abroad? Jk, our passport is weak, wages are low, even going to a different island is very expensive.
@@fakuri913 nonsense from Malaysians like you will embarrass your own nation, you are too obsessed with Indonesia even though you have never been to Indonesia
I recently learned about the rings of fire from a cartoon while I was watching with my little cousin. The cartoon was pretty intense at showing what kind of damage can happen because of it. I instantly searched if Indonesia is a part of it. I was relieved for a second cuz I couldn't find Indonesia.... TURNS OUT WE'RE BASICALLY ONE HUGE LINE OF IT
about Tambora, i want to add that: 1. she's the one that caused Battle of Waterloo went that way, so if u're a non French European just go there and give thanks to the Volcano for giving the world the year without summer that leads to the final defeat of Napoleon (YOU"RE WELCOME EUROPEAN LOL) 2. i want to add that ironically in a way she gave dutch independence so the dutch can take over the voc and colonize Indonesia.. many Indonesians don't know that VOC is the one colonize Indonesia before 1815, it's like let's say amazon or google colonize a country
The Dutch massacred the people of Banda Islands not because of England (at least, not directly), but because the inhabitants violated the Dutch self declared monopoly on nutmeg. Later on, after the Treaty of Breda, the Run island (spelled as "roon") was traded with England in exchange for a small Dutch colony of New Amsterdam in North America. Run island was not where the massacre were committed, it was an island where England established a fort and in constant fight with Dutch over their supremacy on Banda Islands.
There is a story that you missed from Roon Island and this is very surprising, in 1667 the Dutch and English exchanged favors between Roon Island and Neiw Amsterdam which is now called Manhattan. At that time, Run/Rhun/Roon Island, which only covered an area of 600 hectares, was exchanged for the American Manhattan Island because Rhun Island had so many nutmeg plants, where at that time the nutmegs seeds much more expensive than gold.

Indonesia also has a tiny navy considering how massive its patrol needs are. Unfortunately the PRC have completely ignored the rulings on the laws of the seas regarding South China Sea.
@@Momo-nk6ldNope, that information probably comes from Global Fire Power, and they used the number of vessels to rank the navies. Also, that information isn't even relevant anymore because according to GFP we are now ranked 6th. Most of our fleet consists of patrol crafts which are pretty small but quite modern, so I think it is more fit if we call it tiny navies because the total tonnage of our navy is pretty small
yeah they have tiny navy, but their whole military can change whenever they like. East? West? Oh just change our feet whenever we threatened. Or maybe actually military know how to create other dark age consider the geography. And since like I said change their feet whenever they like, it mean they actually have good diplomacy around world, although their citizen too random about their opinion towards government, especially their opinion with recents politics
Every mountains in Indonesia are literally volcanos, that some of them are remain dormant. So they look like usual mountains which also very dangerous because people started residing around its peak for generations, without knowing when will the giant monter will wake.
The dormant volcano is also an excellent symbol of Indonesia on the world stage - a sleeping giant, dwarfing most countries on earth yet noticed by nobody except its nearest neighbours.
People living around Mt Merapi knew that it is not dormant AT ALL, it has had major eruptions in the last 20 years, they still live there anyway because the soil fertility from volcanic ash as well as population pressure to find land, since Java is one of the most densely populated island (or THE MOST, I don't remember the ranking).
@@continuousself-improvement1879 Well Merapi all well known as one of the most actives volcanoes on earth.. I believe he thinking about some "dormant" volcanoes such as Salak, Gede, Pangrango, etc which literally near the the secong largest metropolitan area on earth.. and we still didn't know when those volcanoes would erupt

t There was an unusual amount of rain which fell during the important two days previous, and during the of the battle of Waterloo in the Summer of 1815 affecting troop movement, and the time of engagement on the morning of June 18th. (11:30 a.m. instead of 8 a.m., Napoleon waited for the ground to dry so as too more easily move his cannon to the front and initiate the battle) The extra 3.5 hours also would have given Napoleon time to defeat Wellington before the Prussians arrived in late afternoon.

sorry to post out of topic, but indonesia should have larger influence in this world, i think the problem is, indonesian are in their most comfort zone, no conflict, people dont go to america to chase american dream, which results in the amount of indonesian immigrant, thats why you never heard anything about indonesia.... why philippines, the small country in south east asia is so famous?? because they have lots of immigrant in USA and they bring their culture there... here, let me give you one example, australia is one of the most close developed country near indonesia... compared to malaysia and chinese, indonesia has less immigrant there than both those country, broo indonesia is much closer to australia then china and malaysia, how come indonesia dont live there permanently???? because indonesian are in ther most comfort zone, there is a saying here in indonesia, "it's better stone rain in our land, than gold in foreign land"
I feel so damn heard as an Indinesian, as a kid I was always bummed out that cause we were a relatively new landmass we had no dinosaurs and no interesting prehistoric mammals, just bigger or smaller copies of mainland animals, plus a sort of long tusked dwarf elephant.

Great video, you gave a clear explanations and easy to digest language for my nieces even to understand this topics, that usually boring to regular folks. Also, Indonesians has a popular songs, a somewhat national song, that explains our ancestors as a sailors who wanders the oceans and gliding through waves.
The Dutch atrocities at the time was apparently well-known to everyone that it was reported that the Sultan of Maguindanao (in southern Philippines) had all the nutmeg trees in his kingdom chopped down, to avoid the infamous Dutch rage.
you forgot before indonesia exist there many kingdom and sultanate spread in every island in indonesia before get all conquered by dutch until 1800....the tactic they use are devide at impera

❗Theres a novel written by Pramoedya Ananta Toer-a big novelist in Indonesian literature-that told the story about how lives going on in this region(Hindia) right into the creation of the nation called "Indonesia." An epic novel that translated to many languages. You can buy and read that awesome novels called "Buru quartet; 1.This earth of mankind, 2.Child of all nations, 3.Footsteps, and 4.House of glass" 👍🏻
You forgot Samalas Eruption in 1257 (The location today is part of Mount Rinjani Complex in Lombok Sumbawa). The eruption effect Mongol expansion and also its decline. I saw the video explanation on K & G Channel
Indonesia di jajah pada awalnya hanya oleh sebuah perusahaan pertama di dunia yang disebut sebagai VOC yang merupakan perusahaan terkaya sepanjang masa. VOC merupakan pionir pasar modal dunia. VOC memiliki pasukan paramiliter yang hebat dimasanya yang memiliki Aliansi yang luas di Asia Tenggara dan timur
VOC emang perusahaan yang keren dan gila. Perusahaan yg paling maju di jamannya, Perusahaan yg punya wilayah koloni, punya sistem pemerintahannya sendiri & punya tentaranya sendiri. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I have been wondering about the VOC company and its impacts on global economy . It would be interesting subject if we could trace the money trail after VOC bankruptcy. where did the money go ?
I am not sure about this but I have read one article about the contradiction names between Greenland and Iceland also related to the Samalas Mountain Eruption in the 1257 Century. The Mountain is also located in Indonesia. Before the eruption, Vikings named Iceland based on the snowy weather and a big chunk of ice they found in Iceland and Greenland based on the green scenery. But Samalas mountain eruption changed the earth's temperature during a temporary ice age (in certain parts of the earth, including Greenland and Iceland ). Greenland became more and more icy and Iceland became more and more habitable for the Vikings.
Colonisation wasn't the fisrt thing that united those vast territory, long before, Majapahit Kingdom managed to unite majority of southeast asia under the name Nusantara, even larger than the current Indonesia.
Indonesia exist before the dutch colony, long before it, you can see we have many temples with many ancient kingdom. Borobudur and Prambanan temples as the great witness of it
Before Dutch colony, there is no Indonesia. The archipelago is still consist of differents kingdoms. The modern republic formed after the independence from Dutch
I guess we know why Indonesian don't need to pursue nuclear weapon. If it came to the worse, just idk, find out how to erupt the volcanoes, ensuring mutually assured destruction for everyone on the planet
the simplest of how doing it is to drop a micro nuclear warhead into Indonesia's still active major volcanoes crater... it would at the very least triggering a global catastrophe that would made Ice Age pale in comparison... and might be wiped off 90% of world's population indiscriminately.. very comical way BTW.. and yeah still need micro nuclear at the least..
as an Indonesian I'm totally oblivious to these and refused to take responsibility for the misfortunes caused by our common motherearth's decission to blow some dust fart cloud into the stratosphere, if your ancestors who lived across the ocean on the otherside of the globe moaned about their miserable year due to the volcano dust, imagine howmany folds it was for our own ancestors who sat right next to those erupted mega volcanoes , however before dutch colonialization there were some proto "nusantara" as in Srivijaya empire and Majapahit empire before they broke apart into smaller islamic sultanates, it's funny how nutmeg was one of the main reason the european came for Indonesia yet nutmeg is seldomly used in indonesian traditional cuisine.

In retrospect I wish I’d mentioned a few more things in this video. It’s a bit of a hodgepodge of information I had complied for random facts videos and later realized I had enough to turn it into an entire Indonesian video. With little more thought or research I unintentionally covered mostly topics that related to the western world. If you scroll through the comments you’ll see tons of other examples of how Indonesia has influenced the world.
I plan to make more videos on Indonesia and it’s surrounding area. This was in a way my entry point into learning more and covering more of the region.
Edit: spelling
You've opened the box of Pandora...
Enjoy the journey!
Many thanks on covering Indonesia and hope you can do the rest of the SEA region as well
Southeast Asia has lots of interesting geography, culture and history but it remains fairly unknown and underrated, as its largely overshadowed by East Asia and South Asia to an extent, so its nice to see the region get some exposure and have fun learning more about SEA!
Made more video, more hastag, u will get a lot subscription i hope 😂
Unbelievable.
One thing I cannot stand about western world is your dietary are so poor and it all effects your intelligence and your horrible body odors, too much consuming animals, too much cheese/yogurt/etc those cow's milk belong to their cubs, and alcohol like every fucking where.
Disgusting people and everything.
So yes, saying the truth is considered as spreading hatred by very poor very dumb westen world domination RUclips and so on.
Thanks for the reminder to never return to those even the lowest intelligence in the world ;)
Even world map is inaccurate, wrong since Mercator projection 1569, Real Indonesia is Huge as Russia but even much richer.
To me Europe, USA, etc are the real third world.
As I always state:
Thus not a complete multiracial not multilingual never been living around the world all alone since childhood are just the same never evolved dumb apes stuck inside your tiny boxes your entire life and not learning from the past to evolve better.
Even some people said Tambora erupted effect Napoleon comeback at waterloo. Also Indonesia initiate UNCLOS
Indonesia also indirectly influenced Belgian independence.
The Java War of 1825 - 1830 drained Dutch finances so that they were unable to maintain their colony in Belgium.
I wouldn't call Belgium a "colony".
@@Jack-Handsi mean colony is just another state, the reason why non EU called it colonialism is because it's non christian world and racism is included.
@@werren894 it has nothing to do with religion.
It has to do with the form of government.
@@Jack-Hands Well a colony is a pretty broad term, The Dutch themselves used to be the colony of the Spanish under the Hasburgs (and at that time The Spanish were not too far away from he Dutch as the Spanish Hashburgs also controlled Austria which was pretty big at that time) and the Dutch gained their independence after years of religious wars of independence (cause they were majority protestants which rebelled against the catholic rules and got their help from the British). So Belgium being a Dutch colony is not a long stretch, while Belgium technically is a mix of the Dutch, German, and French but they still were majority catholic at that time.
@@Jack-Hands i am not talking about religion either but civilization design, everyone is monarchy within the region, what's make you think ppl know republic as a concept? because every colony of christian monarchy was design with republic, matter a fact christianity is the bridge for the non european world.
not everybody as priviledge as japan to have education and free access to EU without being force to be christian as early as 16 century, let alone recognizing sovereign state.

Indonesians medieval history also affected the merchant ships worldwide. It was a great local story, that the merchants never tell to the west
Also, the presence of both Middle Eastern and Italian intermediaries in the trade routes to South Asia and Southeast Asia (including Indonesian archipelago) motivated European powers to seek alternative routes to bypass these middlemen. This desire to find alternative trade routes which would allow direct access to Asian goods, including spices, was one of the key drivers behind European exploration to the West, to the new world of Americas.

As an indonesian, all of this facts are true and well researched. You even included the how "unique" dutch colonialism compared to the spanish/ Portuguese one. Especially their rather opportunistic strategy. It's a fact that many of indonesian don't even know, but if you study indonesian history, that is true, and even contributed to the preservation of some local religions (bali for example)
also, needed to be added how the dutch took advantage of the greedy and as*licking locals to work for them. The Dutch didnt want their hands dirty and they employed these greedy locals to prevent them from directly in touch with the locals (inlanders they called). because these locals wouldnt be as obedient. they were even aware of the corruption that ran rampant amongst these greedy people (the residents, municipal leaders/bupatis all the way to the royal families) and the Dutch even often supported these people as they are aware of the local custom where the commoners bow down and will do everything that these local leaders told them to do even though if they werent paid enough.

@@coffeesweet1yup the Dutch exploit this very trait for a three and a half centuries something tht Indonesian today still hate to acknowledge
@@coffeesweet1its actually one of the most effective tactics of conquering that is still employed till today since the days of the romans, divide et impera. Make the locals fight each other. Corrupt some leaders with money and power to make them loyal to you, and the rest will follow.

As a Dutch, I feel deep connection to Indonesian history and culture. In the past, the World just simply called these archipelago as "part of India" or "East Indies". And in the any ancient and medieval history, Indonesian people seems like any remote area for many big societies. Yet I believe Indonesians had part of world societies without we realized it. It's because of toponym. For Javanese people, Indonesian archipelago was called as "Nusantara", and the various ethnic groups living there didn't have any precise name for it. For Malay people, Sumatra was called "Suvarnadvipa". For Sundanese, Sumatra was called "Srivijaya". And also for any world explorer. For Greek people, some of these islands (probably Sumatra and Java) was called "Chryse and Argyre", and "Chersonese Aurea" for Malay Peninsular area. For Arab and Persian, they called Sumatra as "Zabaj" and "Siribuza". For Cambodian, they called Java as "Javadvipa". Medieval Japanese called Borneo as "The Southern Forest Island". During the Portuguese and Spanish colonial, Japanese also called Maluku as "Oriental Spice Islands". In Latin, Sumatra was called "Gamispola". Some of European explorers wrongly named these place by their native tongue like "Camotora" (Portuguese for Sumatra), "Borneo" (British for Brunei - and now for all entire Borneo island), "Celebes" (French for Sulawesi, adopted by the Dutch), "Mollucas" (British for Maluku, the Dutch named it "Molukkers"), etc. And I believe there are more names that refer to Indonesian in the ancient documents and accounts. For the native Indonesians in the ancient back then, they didn't need anymore land outside Indonesia like Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, or Europe. They already lived in the heaven-like place. That's why they also seems like remote people. But the big kingdoms already had bilateral relationship with both the entire archipelago and outside archipelago.
Whenever I went to an Indonesian grocery store, I'd always find some dutch related snacks or foodstuffs, so you're right.
I am dutch indo person. My great grandmother was a dutch killed in japanese camp in Sumatra. Now I live in Kuala Lumpur. Very complicated history😅

we still suffer from dutch and VOC gruesome colonization. It might not written in modern history VOC and dutch colonization method with devide at impera, which make Indonesian sultanates fight each other still remains until this day. and also corruption culture among government officials can be traced back from early dutch colonization. Also dutch army still trying to invade Indonesia even after we declared independence. and Netherlands government never acknowledge our independence day until just recently.
@@mikescarlet4261 Devide at impera? That's not Dutch type of colonialism, dude. Firstly, it was a system of merchantilism that provides a space for any Catholic Church missionaries to follow a group of merchants to trade in a far market. Then it became a slogan for Portuguese, Spanish, and French colonies (as they were Catholics denomination). The slogan is a Latin paraphrase used by Roman Catholic liturgy. That's quite funny if you said the Dutch also used this slogan, because most Dutchmen were Calvinists, they even stereotypically "Anti-Catholicism". And we can see the proof. Whenever you find any ex-Portuguese and Spanish colonies, you can see the ex-colony adopts so many either Portuguese or Spanish culture. Not only outfit and colloquial customs, even the religion and language. If you're Indonesian, you can look at the Philippines and East Timor. Strong Spanish cultures are easily found in the Philippines, and strong Portuguese cultures are also easily found in East Timor. That's devide et impera. Comparing to any ex-Dutch colony, ex-Dutch colonies don't adopt strong Dutch cultures like Indonesia, West India (Bengal), and South Africa. You will only find a little tiny Calvinists there. The Dutch don't care about spreading of Christianity/Calvinism whatsoever.

1:40 I also remember reading somewhere that Napoleon lost a key battle due to the weather being influenced by a volcano eruption in Indonesia
Yeah search up 1813 tambora eruption Napoleon
why is this so funny
There's also the fact that due to the bad weather caused bu the Mount Tambora eruption, Napoleon lost the battle of waterloo because the bad weather made the terrain of Waterloo to be muddy.
Tambora erupted 5th of April, Waterloo was on 18th June. Too short for Tambora to have effect in NorthWestern Europe, and there were only 2 days of heavy rain in June 1815, so not unusual weather. Unfortunately for Napoleon, it was the 17th and 18th, the very days he was trying to trap the British-Dutch-Germans, before the beaten Prussian come back.
You're telling me Krakatoa eruption in 1883 indirectly caused the creation of "Still a better love story than Twilight" meme?

Long before any european sailor sailing the ocean, ancient sailor from modern indonesia had already sailing the world ocean except to three places, which is eastern and western arctic seas and antarctic sea
Ancient indonesian sailors had developing navigation technique by reading the stars that still used until now, also had developing shipbuilding technology that gave birth to Djung Ship
Djung ship are the type of ship specialy designed to sail far away from the coast. There are many class of djung ship. But, two of the most famous class are Djung Malay that developed by Srivijaya empire in sumatra and Djung Java that developed by Majapahit empire in java
Djung Malay are the early design of Djung java and it's used both as cargo ship and warship. Unlike most european ship at the same time that have length up to 40 meters, Djung Malay have length up to 80 meters while Djung Java have length up to 150 meters.
Both ship are considered as super difficult to sunk in which Djung Java is impossible to sunk. This due to wood material that used to build this two ship are known to this day due to it's hardness, which is iron wood, coconut wood and teak wood. They no using random wood of this three wood, instead they choose the old tree and hardest part of the tree to make the ship. There is no record that explain any Djung Java successfuly sunk or heavily damaged even by newly invented Canon.
With Djung ship, ancient indonesian sailor had successfuly sailing to american continent (east, west, north, central and south coast except the arctic and antartic circle), euopean coast up to western france, mediteranean sea, brazilian coast, australian coast and japanese coast.
If you look at temple ruin in java and sumatra, you will find reliefs resembling cultures, natures and plants from different continents
From borobudur temple reliefs you can find north american cactus and native central american reliefs. There is also temple that resemble american pyramid, inca/mayan head statue and such
Also, did you know that you can find many plants that native to south east asia grow in amazonian jungle such as banana?
This type of south east asian plants that you can find in amazonian forest are the type of plants that can't survive the salt water. They will rot if submerged in salt water for a long time. So it's impossible for them to grow naturaly in amazon through ocean current. Means there is a contact between south east asia and amazonian kingdom(s)

There's no "Indonesia" at that time, but kingdoms
The Dutch massacred the people of Banda Islands not because of England (at least, not directly), but because the inhabitants violated the Dutch self declared monopoly on nutmeg. Later on, after the Treaty of Breda, the Run island (spelled as "roon") was traded with England in exchange for a small Dutch colony of New Amsterdam in North America. Run island was not where the massacre were committed, it was an island where England established a fort and in constant fight with Dutch over their supremacy on Banda Islands.
Another fun fact is, those who did the dirty work on the island is, Japanese.

There is a story that you missed from Roon Island and this is very surprising, in 1667 the Dutch and English exchanged favors between Roon Island and Neiw Amsterdam which is now called Manhattan.
At that time, Run/Rhun/Roon Island, which only covered an area of 600 hectares, was exchanged for the American Manhattan Island because Rhun Island had so many nutmeg plants, where at that time the nutmegs seeds much more expensive than gold.

If there was a hobbit in Indonesia, then Mt doom is tambora and the island where it's located is mordor
Every mountains in Indonesia are literally volcanos, that some of them are remain dormant. So they look like usual mountains which also very dangerous because people started residing around its peak for generations, without knowing when will the giant monter will wake.
they knew, but they dare to take risk bc the soil is fertile
The dormant volcano is also an excellent symbol of Indonesia on the world stage - a sleeping giant, dwarfing most countries on earth yet noticed by nobody except its nearest neighbours.
People living around Mt Merapi knew that it is not dormant AT ALL, it has had major eruptions in the last 20 years, they still live there anyway because the soil fertility from volcanic ash as well as population pressure to find land, since Java is one of the most densely populated island (or THE MOST, I don't remember the ranking).
Yeah, having the amount of people equivalent to Russia Federation into a small island of Java tends to do that
@@continuousself-improvement1879 Well Merapi all well known as one of the most actives volcanoes on earth.. I believe he thinking about some "dormant" volcanoes such as Salak, Gede, Pangrango, etc which literally near the the secong largest metropolitan area on earth.. and we still didn't know when those volcanoes would erupt
Mount tambora also vanished closest kingdom, the Dompu Kingdom.
Mongols : **Tried to conquer another land across the ocean**
Mongols : We've been tricked, we've been backstabbed, and we've been quite possibly, bamboozled.
as an indonesian i'd say it's pretty accurate! just a bit missed some details but a great introduction to new learners

There was an unusual amount of rain which fell during the important two days previous, and during the of the battle of Waterloo in the Summer of 1815 affecting troop movement, and the time of engagement on the morning of June 18th. (11:30 a.m. instead of 8 a.m., Napoleon waited for the ground to dry so as too more easily move his cannon to the front and initiate the battle) The extra 3.5 hours also would have given Napoleon time to defeat Wellington before the Prussians arrived in late afternoon.
Awesome video man 👍🏽 as a Malaysian with Javanese ancestry, this gives me a deeper appreciation for my ancestors struggles and migrations through the ring of fire.
I thought javanese in malaysia dont want to call themself as javanese because the government in malaysia don't recognize javanese as javanese but as malay although its not and very different culture.. 😂😂
@@ElijahElianorthe malaysian govt definitely recognized the Javanese, Bugis, Minang ethnics etc, but all are lumped in Malay race category. The reason why Javaneseness is downplayed is because the communists under Sukarno wiped out malay sultans in Sumatra, so some people in Malaysia remains suspicious of javanese and viewed them as imperialistic.
@@alphazarso tell your people to stop claiming Javanese cendol batik and Minangkabau west Sumatra rendang because its a shameful to not recognized them as a Tribe but use their cultures and food as yours. Javanese comes from Java island, bugis come from Sulawesi island, and minangkabau comes from west Sumatra so you guys didn't have the right to claim the original culture stealers😂
@@LetvishaIvana-vp9bm stfu there are millions of descendants of javanese, minang, bugis acheh etc in Malaysia they all can claim whatever heritage of their forefathers

I really appreciate the narration, you don’t over enunciate, and it’s very understandable. Some people make videos where the history facts are interesting but I can’t get past the voice sounding professorial.
As Indonesian, this video is amazing, its surprising that so many big thing triggered by this region
Still a supporter 💪🏻 amazing video keep up the amazing work 💫
Appreciate it!!
sorry to post out of topic, but indonesia should have larger influence in this world,
i think the problem is, indonesian are in their most comfort zone, no conflict, people dont go to america to chase american dream, which results in the amount of indonesian immigrant, thats why you never heard anything about indonesia.... why philippines, the small country in south east asia is so famous?? because they have lots of immigrant in USA and they bring their culture there... here, let me give you one example, australia is one of the most close developed country near indonesia... compared to malaysia and chinese, indonesia has less immigrant there than both those country, broo indonesia is much closer to australia then china and malaysia, how come indonesia dont live there permanently???? because indonesian are in ther most comfort zone, there is a saying here in indonesia, "it's better stone rain in our land, than gold in foreign land"
that saying also exist in malays
I feel so damn heard as an Indinesian, as a kid I was always bummed out that cause we were a relatively new landmass we had no dinosaurs and no interesting prehistoric mammals, just bigger or smaller copies of mainland animals, plus a sort of long tusked dwarf elephant.
But wow the country's been doing a lot of work in human history.
the fact that a single volcano almost drove mankind to extinction is still baffling me
the book 'Dune' is basically inspired by dutch colonialism in indonesia
Iyakah??? Pantesan pas nonton filmnya sangat relate, dijajah karena rempah-rempah😅
Wait what? Really??? Woaaa
Oalah pantesan kek related sama indo, ada kisah imam mahdi atau satria piningit jg, tp klo geografis nya kek jazirah arab gitu y

Indonesia (precisely 2nd president son) was the reason Lamborghini still exists and thrive
Great video, you gave a clear explanations and easy to digest language for my nieces even to understand this topics, that usually boring to regular folks.
Also, Indonesians has a popular songs, a somewhat national song, that explains our ancestors as a sailors who wanders the oceans and gliding through waves.
The Dutch atrocities at the time was apparently well-known to everyone that it was reported that the Sultan of Maguindanao (in southern Philippines) had all the nutmeg trees in his kingdom chopped down, to avoid the infamous Dutch rage.
you forgot before indonesia exist there many kingdom and sultanate spread in every island in indonesia before get all conquered by dutch until 1800....the tactic they use are devide at impera
He is not forgot about it, but all the things you mentioned is a little bit irrelevant to the video title, unless he could found something relevant about those.
Fun fact for movie goers : if it wasn't for Indonesia not letting a certain director into the country, the original Godzilla movie wouldn't exist
A high quality land for agriculture comes a high risk... We Indonesian feeling greatful and terrified at the same time
Amazing video!
❗Theres a novel written by Pramoedya Ananta Toer-a big novelist in Indonesian literature-that told the story about how lives going on in this region(Hindia) right into the creation of the nation called "Indonesia." An epic novel that translated to many languages. You can buy and read that awesome novels called "Buru quartet; 1.This earth of mankind, 2.Child of all nations, 3.Footsteps, and 4.House of glass" 👍🏻
You forgot Samalas Eruption in 1257 (The location today is part of Mount Rinjani Complex in Lombok Sumbawa). The eruption effect Mongol expansion and also its decline. I saw the video explanation on K & G Channel
Indonesia di jajah pada awalnya hanya oleh sebuah perusahaan pertama di dunia yang disebut sebagai VOC yang merupakan perusahaan terkaya sepanjang masa. VOC merupakan pionir pasar modal dunia. VOC memiliki pasukan paramiliter yang hebat dimasanya yang memiliki Aliansi yang luas di Asia Tenggara dan timur
Sebelum VOC, sudah ada beberapa negara yang menduduki Indonesia.
VOC emang perusahaan yang keren dan gila. Perusahaan yg paling maju di jamannya, Perusahaan yg punya wilayah koloni, punya sistem pemerintahannya sendiri & punya tentaranya sendiri. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@INDONESIABUBAR2030BYSPIZYDORI negara apa? Kalo cuma singgah di pelabuhan itu bukan menduduki
@@INDONESIABUBAR2030BYSPIZYDORIlebih tepatnya menduduki beberapa pulau.
So, in a way Netherlands should thank indonesia for their wealth..
Great video, especially on the thorough research thing about Indonesia. Thanks anyway for posting this one.

don't forget ,tambora eruption also played a big role in Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo.
The what
Proud to have hear about the year without summer. Also heard that temperatures dropped by only 2 degrees on average
This video has blown my mind! Best geography channel! Subbed and keep up the good work!
Wow, I appreciate the kind words and thanks for the sub!
Indonesia are Wakanda and konoha at the same time. Important country nobody know, but had and will have global impact.
I have been wondering about the VOC company and its impacts on global economy . It would be interesting subject if we could trace the money trail after VOC bankruptcy. where did the money go ?
war.
@@wuvme9354 lol. that's an easy answer. so "money" dissipate into air to outer-space.
@@andrewgirsang5002some war happened in East Indies cost lott of money, and corruption that being the cause of how the company fallen to the dust
I am not sure about this but I have read one article about the contradiction names between Greenland and Iceland also related to the Samalas Mountain Eruption in the 1257 Century. The Mountain is also located in Indonesia. Before the eruption, Vikings named Iceland based on the snowy weather and a big chunk of ice they found in Iceland and Greenland based on the green scenery. But Samalas mountain eruption changed the earth's temperature during a temporary ice age (in certain parts of the earth, including Greenland and Iceland ). Greenland became more and more icy and Iceland became more and more habitable for the Vikings.
Well, it's still a theory after all.
This is amazing 🤩
As Indonesian I never realize this. We just took everything for granted and just live as Indonesian wether its good or bad still my motherland.
Within 10 minutes!
Colonisation wasn't the fisrt thing that united those vast territory, long before, Majapahit Kingdom managed to unite majority of southeast asia under the name Nusantara, even larger than the current Indonesia.
Indonesia exist before the dutch colony, long before it, you can see we have many temples with many ancient kingdom. Borobudur and Prambanan temples as the great witness of it
Before Dutch colony, there is no Indonesia. The archipelago is still consist of differents kingdoms.
The modern republic formed after the independence from Dutch
there is no Indonesia and actually it quite better to be more state than republic and creatu union around South East.
The term "Indonesia" itself barely invented by a Scottish lawyer in early 20th century.
How come it's existing already in ancient era?
@@RandomGuy-uj4hn well you know, those kind of people mostly the one who read that Java manuscript, eh?
There was no such thing as Indonesia before 1945
I wonder if humans will cease any war when Toba supervolcano erupting again. But then again, I won't be alive to see such world peace.
Javanese society also inspire karl max in the book das kapital.
Woaa.. Really?
Thats so ironic considering Indonesian people are very anti- communist/socialist untill this day
And most of us don't even speak Dutch. lol
I guess we know why Indonesian don't need to pursue nuclear weapon. If it came to the worse, just idk, find out how to erupt the volcanoes, ensuring mutually assured destruction for everyone on the planet
the simplest of how doing it is to drop a micro nuclear warhead into Indonesia's still active major volcanoes crater... it would at the very least triggering a global catastrophe that would made Ice Age pale in comparison...
and might be wiped off 90% of world's population indiscriminately..
very comical way BTW..
and yeah still need micro nuclear at the least..
@@dieterhrabak4947 MOAB would work
to the writer: you're okay buddy you got this, as an Indonesian just wanna tell you this is a great video
as an Indonesian I'm totally oblivious to these and refused to take responsibility for the misfortunes caused by our common motherearth's decission to blow some dust fart cloud into the stratosphere, if your ancestors who lived across the ocean on the otherside of the globe moaned about their miserable year due to the volcano dust, imagine howmany folds it was for our own ancestors who sat right next to those erupted mega volcanoes , however before dutch colonialization there were some proto "nusantara" as in Srivijaya empire and Majapahit empire before they broke apart into smaller islamic sultanates, it's funny how nutmeg was one of the main reason the european came for Indonesia yet nutmeg is seldomly used in indonesian traditional cuisine.

Where is Indonesia?
Is it near Bali?

Who would have thought that our volcano would end racism in US 😅
It also led to the defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte's army on the Battle of Waterloo
and started industrialism.

VOLCANO
European : Act disbehave
God : Time to blast one of volcano in indonesia.
Indonesian : Not again 😢
boikot tade spice from Indonesia to europe by ottoman make centry of sailling by europeian to find source of spices, that beggining colonialism.
i think it's worth noting that the term "Boogeyman" or bad evil man derived from the south Sulawesi's Bugis people who were fierce pirates who were feared by many who sailed the spice islands.
