Daerah-daerah konflik
Partly because of its size and disunity, Indonesia experienced great political turmoil following independence, including seven governments in eight years (1949 to 1957), the imposition of martial law in March 1957, attempted communist takeovers, and finally the military coup of 1965 that brought Suharto to power. Since then, rebellion has been sporadic and, until recently, unsuccessful. In May 1998, after ruling the country for more than 30 years, President Suharto was forced to step aside. The next president, B.J. Habibie, was a close Suharto associate. In October 1999, the upper house of parliament elected Abdurrahman Wahid, a Muslim cleric known as â€œGus Dur,â€ as Indonesiaâ€™s fourth president. Megawati Soekarnoputri (daughter of Indonesiaâ€™s first president, Sukarno) was subsequently elected vice president.

Throughout all of this, Indonesia has promoted the goal of "unifying" the nation's various ethnic and religious groups, a goal not shared by all citizens.
