Names of Indonesia

The region that is today identified as Indonesia has carried different names, such as "East Indies" in this 1855 map.

Indonesia is the common and official name to refer to the Republic of Indonesia or Indonesian archipelago; however, other names, such as Nusantara and East Indies are also known. Some names are considered obsolete and confined to certain periods of history, while some might be more geographically specific or general.
