Explanation: The Dutch East Indies was a Dutch colony that became modern Indonesia following World War II. It was formed from the nationalised colonies of the Dutch East India Company, which came under the administration of the Dutch government in 1800. This colony which later formed modem-day Indonesia was one of the most valuable European colonies under the Dutch Empire’s rule and contributed to Dutch global prominence in spice and cash crop trade in the 19th to early 20th century.
