'''Nusantara''', officially the '''Confederation of Nusantara''', is a transcontinental country primarily located in [[Southeast Asia]] between the [[Indian ocean|Indian]] and [[Pacific ocean|Pacific]] oceans. Compromising over [[Islands of Nusantara|17,000 islands]], Nusantara is the world's largest archipelagic state and the [[List of countries and dependencies by area|12th-largest country]] by land area at 2,410,489 square kilometers (930,695 square miles). The [[Nusantaran archipelago]] is made up of five main islands—[[Sumatra]], [[Java]], [[Borneo]], [[Sulawesi]], and [[New Guinea]]—as well as two island chains: the [[Maluku Islands|Moluccas]] and the [[Lesser Sunda Islands|Lesser Sundas]]. The country shares maritime borders with [[Wikipedia:Australia|Australia]], [[Malaya]], the [[Wikipedia:Philippines|Philippines]], and the [[Wikipedia:Solomon Islands|Solomon Islands]]. With a population of 308 million, Nusantara is the [[List of countries and dependencies by population|4th most populous country]].

Early humans arrived in modern-day Nusantara during the Pleistocene with fossilized remains of [[Wikipedia:Java Man|Java Man]]—a form of ''[[Wikipedia:Homo erectus|Homo erectus]]''—dating back 1.5 to 1.7 million years ago. Modern humans arrived later around 50,000 years ago, followed by waves of migration of [[Austronesian peoples|Austronesian peoples]] from [[Taiwan]] spanning multiple millennia from 4,000 to 2,000 BC. Being at the crossroads of [[East Asia|East]] and [[South Asia]], the region quickly became an important link for maritime trade and cultural exchange, which led to the rise of [[Greater_India#Indianization_of_Southeast_Asia|Indianized]] thalassocracies such as [[Wikipedia:Srivijaya|Srivijaya]] and [[Wikipedia:Majapahit|Majapahit]], and the spread of [[Hinduism in Nusantara|Hinduism]], [[Buddhism in Nusantara|Buddhism]], and later [[Islam in Nusantara|Islam]] in the 7th and 8th centuries by Arab and Indian traders.

Being at the crossroads of [[India]] and [[China]], the region became an important link for global trade which gave rise to [[List of polities in Nusantara|prominent thalassocracies]] such as [[Wikipedia:Srivijaya|Srivijaya]] and [[Wikipedia:Majapahit|Majapahit]], and facilitating the spread of [[Hinduism]], [[Buddhism]], and [[Islam]]. Threatened by [[encroaching European powers in the region]], a [[defensive alliance]] was formed between local monarchies to ward off European aggression. During the [[Wikipedia:Napoleonic wars|Napoleonic wars]], the alliance successfully expelled the European empires in a [[war from 1815 to 1819]]. The [[Treaty of Singapore]] signed the following year formally established Nusantara as a unified federal state.


Threatened by the growing presence of European powers in the region, the confederation was initially formed as a defensive military pact between regional monarchies. Capitalizing on the ongoing [[Wikipedia:Napoleonic Wars|Napoleonic Wars]] in Europe, the pact successfully expelled the distracted European powers in a [[War of the Two Oceans|war from 1811 to 1815]]. The [[Treaty of Singapore (1816)|Treaty of Singapore]] signed the subsequent year formally established a unified Nusantaran state under a [[Constitution of Nusantara (1816)|confederal constitution]] modeled after the [[United States]]. The new nation pursued rapid [[Industrialisation|industrialization]] and [[Modernization theory|modernization]], allowing the country to project its power beyond the [[Wikipedia:Sunda Islands|Sunda Islands]] with the annexation of [[Malaya]] in 1876, [[Wikipedia:New Guinea|New Guinea]] in 1888, and the [[Philippines]] in 1899.
[[Origins of the Nusantaran Civil War|Decades of controversy]] regarding the role of religion in government culminated in the [[Nusantaran Civil War]] from 1860 to 1865, in which 11 western Mandalas [[Padang Declaration|seceded]] to form the [[Islamic State of Nusantara]], ending in a Nusantaran victory. Emerging from the war a more centralized state, Nusantara pursued rapid [[Wikipedia:Industrialization|industrialization]], [[Wikipedia:Modernization|modernization]], and [[Greater Nusantara|colonial expansion]]. The [[History of sorcery|discovery and monopolization]] of [[sorcery]] in 1912 cemented Nusantara's status as a [[Wikipedia:Great power|great power]]. Its rapid adoption reignited Islamist-Nationalist tensions, leading to decades of [[political violence]]. By 1967, extreme political polarization gave rise to the [[Genura party]], bringing the nation into [[World War 2]] as an [[Axis power]]. Following the [[pandoric bombings of Jakarta and Palembang]] in 1975, Nusantara [[surrendered]] and came under [[Allied-occupied Nusantara|allied occupation]] until 1980. The subsequent post-war era saw [[Miracle on Coconut Islands|rapid economic growth]], democratic restoration, and the continued development of sorcery.


Decades of controversy regarding the role of religion in government eventually led to the secession of 11 western Mandalas to form the [[Islamic Emirate of Nusantara]]. WIP WIP WIP WIP WIP
Nusantara is a federal presidential republic with a bicameral legislature known as the [[Saba]]. The national constitution delegates considerable autonomy to the 38 Mandalas while [[Wikipedia:Separation of powers|power is separated]] among executive, legislative, and judicial branches. A developed nation, Nusantara ranks high in economic competitiveness, innovation, and education. It boasts the 3rd largest economy by GDP, and the 11th highest disposable income per capita worldwide, but faces rising wealth inequality. Being the birthplace of sorcery, it is a global leader in mana production and magical research. Nusantaran culture is globally influential, and its popular culture is known worldwide through its expression in animation, art, comics, cuisine, films, and video games.


The discovery and later the monopolization of magic by Nusantara propelled the country to
== Etymology ==
{{Main|Names of Nusantara}}


== Etymology ==
The name ''Nusantara'' originates from [[Wikipedia:Old Javanese|Old Javanese]]. The word ''nūsa'' means "island," while ''antara'' (from [[Wikipedia:Sanskrit|Sanskrit]] अन्तरा) means "outer" or "between," thus creating a compound word which literally translates to "the outer islands" or "archipelago." This term was first recorded in the ''Mūla Malurung'' inscription of the [[Wikipedia:Singhasari|Singhasari Kingdom]] in the 1177 [[Wikipedia:Indian national calendar|Saka]] (1255 CE), where it was used to describe the outer territories under the king's authority. The term appeared again in Old Javanese manuscripts, the ''[[Wikipedia:Pararaton|Pararaton]]'' and the ''[[Wikipedia:Nagarakretagama|Nagarakretagama]]''. In 1336, [[Wikipedia:Gajah Mada|Gajah Mada]], the then-[[Wikipedia:Mangkubhumi|prime minister]] of the [[Wikipedia:Majapahit|Majapahit Empire]], took the ''[[Wikipedia:Palapa oath|Sumpah Palapa]]'' ('Palapa Oath'), where he vowed not to taste any [[Wikipedia:Spice|spices]] until he had united all of Nusantara under Majapahit rule.
 
During the Bandung Congress, many names were put forward for the new country. Delegates from Pasundan favored Sunda, while those from Sumatran kingdoms favored Malaya.
