Destination Indonesia, the largest archipelago in the world is situated in Maritime Southeast Asia.
The country consists of a number of islands between, 13,000 and more than 17,000, depending on what you define as an island.
With an area of 1,904,569 km² and a population of 258 million people making Indonesia the largest and most populous country situated only on islands, the combined area of the archipelago is slightly smaller than Mexico, or more than five times the size of Germany.
