It also has fucking 267 million inhabitants. Blew my fucking mind when I heard that.
Only makes me wonder even more how the fuck Dutchfags managed to colonize them

I am an American and I didn’t even know what most of these countries looked like. The only countries I can find on the map are America, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Africa, and Hawaii.

What said
Not that we were by any means kind colonisers, we were far from the worst
Our priority was profit, everything else was second
So for most local rulers a certain organisation was set up, they had to accept the Dutch king as their supreme ruler, and pay a few taxes, apart from that they were free to do as they want, and if they paid additional taxes (read, extort their own subjects) they would receive extra benefits
Most of the colonisation of Indonesia was done in the 19th century, and not all local rulers were as keen to work with us, see Aceh War
