Java War Begins

1825

Prince Diponegoro, a Javanese aristocrat steeped in Sufi mysticism, took to the hills with ten thousand followers against Dutch road-builders who had paved through his ancestors' graves. The guerrilla war he led would last five years, kill two hundred thousand Javanese, and end with Diponegoro's arrest at a peace conference.
