Indonesia is the country with the most islands, with a total of over 17,000 islands.

It is also the world's largest archipelago by both land area and population. The five main islands in Indonesia are Java, Sumatra, Borneo (known as Kalimantan in Indonesia), Sulawesi, and New Guinea.

Indonesia's islands are spread across a vast area of ocean, making it a country of tremendous diversity in terms of culture, language, and geography. The country is located between the Indian and Pacific Oceans and spans almost 5,000 kilometers from east to west, and over 1,800 kilometers from north to south.
