I know this wasn't directed at me, but I *think* I can answer a few of those questions and so I'm just wondering if my answers are right...
1 - I don't know any of the provinces
2 - Jakarta is the capital?
3- I'm not sure, but I think there is a language called Indonesian? And because the country is a former Dutch colony, perhaps Dutch is still spoken there? And I'm sure there are many other dialects spoken in different areas of the country, but I can't name any of them.
4 - President Megawati? (spelling?)
3 out of 4 is great! I am impressed!
1. Aceh, Bali, Bengkulu, Irian Jaya, Jakarta, Jambi, Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah, Jawa Timur, Kalimantan Barat, Kalimantan Selatan, Kalimantan Tengah, Kalimantan Timur, Lampung, Maluku, Nusa Tenggara Barat, Nusa Tenggara Timur, Riau, Sulawesi Selatan, Sulawesi Tengah, Sulawesi Tenggara, Sulawesi Utara, Sumatera Barat, Sumatera Selatan, Sumatera Utara, Yogyakarta (and no I didn't type those all from memory...used to be able to recite them along with their capitals, but it's been a while
)
2. Jakarta is the capital.
3. The official language is Indonesian also called "Bahasa Indonesia"; there are thousands of other languages used within the country.
4. Megawati Sukarnoputri is the President.
And yes,
War and Peace and
Crime and Punishment are great novels.
