| | Indonesia after Suharto |
 | | Kalimantan, the Indonesian portion of the island of Borneo, has been the scene of grisly bloodshed, with the indigenous Dayak tribespeople attacking the immigrant Madurese population. | | | Formerly called the Spice Islands, the Moluccas—once highly valued for their nutmeg and cloves—were the islands Columbus had hoped to reach when he instead found himself in the Americas. | | | The Indonesian occupation led to widespread repression and the deaths of an estimated 200,000 Timorese, earning Indonesia a global reputation for human rights abuses. |
