1. What is the capital of Indonesia?

Answer: Jakarta

Jakarta is both Indonesia's capital and largest city. It is located on the island of Java. Its metropolitan area is one of the largest in the world.
2. Which of these best describes Indonesia?

Answer: A series of over a thousand islands

Indonesia is made up of over seventeen thousand islands, with only about six thousand of these having people living on them. Some of the islands are shared with other countries. Indonesia has borders with Papua New Guinea, East Timor, and Malaysia. Indonesia's largest island, Borneo, is also the third-largest island in the world.

Indonesia has islands in both the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
3. Are there any volcanoes in Indonesia?

Answer: Yes

Indonesia is part of what is called the Ring of Fire, which is an area in and around the Pacific Ocean where volcanoes are common. Erupting undersea volcanoes can form islands. In Indonesia, where there are over 150 volcanoes, eruptions are a danger.

Answer: Islam

About eighty-seven percent of the people in Indonesia are Muslim. Although the country has freedom of religion, only six religions are recognized by the government.
5. On what side of the equator is Indonesia?

Answer: It is on both sides.

The equator is an invisible line that divides the world in half in the center, creating the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Indonesia stretches across the equator so that it has islands on both sides. Because it is on the equator, Indonesia has a tropical climate.
6. On the Indonesian national emblem, a mythical creature called a Garuda holds the shield. What type of animal does the Garuda look like?

Answer: Eagle

The Garuda is a bird-like, usually humanoid, creature that is from both Hindu and Buddhist mythology. On the Indonesian emblem, it holds a shield that is divided into five parts. On the shield is a bull's head, a golden star, a gold chain, a banyan tree, and rice and cotton. Each item symbolizes something about the country. The eagle also holds a ribbon with the country's motto on it.
7. Indonesia's first Olympic medal was won in 1988 in what bow and arrow-based sport?

Answer: Archery

Indonesia first sent athletes to the Summer Olympic Games in 1952, though the country did not win a medal until their women's archery team won a silver medal at the 1988 Games in Seoul, South Korea. They've since won more medals, including a number of gold medals in badminton.
8. What is the national animal of Indonesia, which is the largest species of lizard?

Answer: Komodo dragon

The Komodo dragon is only found on a few Indonesian islands. They are the world's largest type of lizard and can grow to two hundred pounds in weight and more than eight feet in length. The animal is considered vulnerable by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.
9. Indonesia's national motto is: "Unity in _____". What word, meaning variety, correctly completes the phrase?

Answer: Diversity

In the original Old Javanese, Indonesia's motto is "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika", which loosely translates to "Unity in Diversity". The phrase is from a 14th century poem called "Kakawin Sutasoma" by Mpu Tantular.
10. Like Japan's flag, what two colors are on Indonesia's flag?

Answer: Red and white

The simple flag of Indonesia consists of two, equal horizontal stripes. The top is red and the bottom is white. The red represents courage and the white means purity. The flag has been in use since 1945.
