Indonesia

Spanning over 17,000 islands between the Indian and Pacific oceans, this archipelagic nation covers 1.9 million square kilometers and serves as the world's largest island country. As the fourth most populous nation globally with nearly 285 million people, it hosts a diverse economy driven by significant natural resources and a strategic position along major maritime trade routes. The country operates as a presidential republic with Jakarta as its capital, leveraging its vast biodiversity and extensive network of 38 provinces to foster rapid economic growth and regional stability. With a GDP estimated at $1.43 trillion nominally and $5.01 trillion in purchasing power parity, Indonesia stands as a leading emerging market and the most populous Muslim-majority country.
