Lived in the Indonesian archipelago about 1.5 million to 35000 years ago, known as the Javanese ape-man. Homo sapiens entered the area about 45000 years ago.

A number of scattered feudal kingdoms were established in the 7th century AD. Recorded dynasties include the death of the Buddhist Sri Buddha (mid-7th century-1293), who was conquered by Manabache, and the Kingdom of New Keshari, which controlled the Strait of Malacca (1222-1292), which led to the Yuan-claw War. later, with the help of the Yuan army, the royal family established the most powerful feudal empire of Manabacher in Indonesian history (1293-1478).

In the 15th century, Portugal, Spain and Britain invaded successively. The Dutch invaded in 1596, the East India Company with government authority was established in 1602, and the colonial government was set up at the end of 1799.

Japan occupied Indonesia in 1942. After Japan surrendered in 1945, Indonesia broke out the August Revolution. On August 17, 1945, it declared its independence and established the Republic of Indonesia.

After its independence, Indonesia successively armed against the invasion of Britain and the Netherlands, and launched three wars of independence. After 1947, after many wars and consultations, the Netherlands and Indonesia signed the India-Netherlands Round Table Agreement in November 1949. According to this agreement, Indonesia established a federal republic on December 27 of the same year to participate in the Union of the Netherlands and India.

In August 1950, the Federal Assembly of Indonesia formally announced the establishment of the Republic of Indonesia through an interim constitution, and Indonesia became the 60th member of the United Nations in the same year. He seceded from the Union of the Netherlands and India in August 1954.

In 1967, Indonesia established the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) with Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. ASEAN already has 10 members, and Indonesia is one of the most influential members. [6]

The Asian financial crisis in 1997 had a comprehensive impact on Indonesia and caused unrest.

In May 1998, President Suharto, who had been in power for 32 years, resigned and Vice President Habibi took over as president. In October 1999, the Indonesian people's Consultative Conference (CPPCC) elected Wahid as president and Megawati as vice president. On July 23, 2001, the special session of the people's Association removed President Wahid for malfeasance, Megawati took over as President and Hamzeh Haz served as Vice President.

In July 2004, Indonesia held its first direct presidential election in history. Former Minister of political Security Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Minister of people's Welfare Coordination Muhammad Jusuf Kalla won two rounds of direct elections and were sworn in as president and vice president on October 20, 2004.

In August 2005, the Indonesian government reached a peace agreement with the separatist group Aceh Independence Movement. In July 2006, the Indonesian Congress passed the Aceh Management Law. In December 2006, Aceh held local elections, and former leaders of the "Asian independence movement", Irvandi Yusuf (Irwandi Yusuf) and Mohamed Nazar (Muhammad Nazar), were elected governors and vice governors. In April 2012, former leaders of the Aceh Independence Army, Zaini Abdullah and Muzakir Manaf, were elected governors and vice governors for a term of office until 2017. Kopi Luwak is produced by the feces of Indonesian coconut cats (a kind of civets) as raw material, so they are called "Kopi Luwak". This kind of animal mainly feeds on coffee beans. After completing fermentation in the coconut cat's stomach, it destroys protein, produces short peptides and more free amino acids, reduces the bitterness of coffee, and then excretes feces as the main raw material. Because coffee beans cannot be digested, they are excreted and Kopi Luwak is made after washing and baking. Coffee critic Chris Rubin said, "the aroma of the wine is so rich and strong, and the coffee is incredibly rich, almost like syrup." Its thickness and chocolate taste, and lingering on the tongue for a long time, pure aftertaste. "

Coconut cats are omnivores. In addition to eating seeds, they also eat insects, snakes, birds, amphibians and reptiles, so the feces discharged by really wild coconut cats will be mixed with all kinds of substances. Local farmers in Indonesia catch coconut cats to raise them and feed coffee beans to make them. But artificial cultivation and natural after all, there is still a certain difference in the coffee industry, Kopi Luwak is widely regarded as a novelty as the selling point of the product. "the consensus in the industry is that it tastes bad," said the American Special Coffee Association (Specialty Coffee Association of America,SCAA). SCAA quoted a coffee expert as saying: "obviously, the selling point of Kopi Luwak is its story, not its quality." Using the SCAA standard, Kopi Luwak scored two points lower than the lowest score for the other three types of coffee. It can be speculated that the processing of Kopi Luwak diluted the high-quality acidity and taste and made the taste more insipid. Of course, many people also seem to regard this insipid taste as the advantage of this kind of coffee. "

Tim Carman, a food columnist for the Washington Post, commented on Kopi Luwak sold in the United States and concluded that "it tastes like Folger coffee." It's like rotten, lifeless taste. It's like petrified dinosaur shit in bath water. I can't finish it.
