=== General Information About These Records  ===
=== General Information About These Records  ===


Indonesia is a series of islands that was colonized by the Dutch and gained its independence following World War II. As a country dependent on agriculture as well as trade with foreign nations, it is a country filled with several languages, religions, and peoples. The custom of naming children is one example of diversity: In general, the everyday Indonesian typically will have only one name, while those of the middle class more often have two names like in Western cultures. In other words, longer names may be an indicator of an individual’s social status.
Some images contain notes in Arabic script because the country’s major religion is Islam and Arabic is the language of Islam; however, the records in this collection are typewritten in Indonesian rather than Arabic because that is the national language.
