Maybe most absorbing regarding indonesia's hunt for independence was their actual notification. Unlike the u.s. Declaration of independence which weighs in at way over 1,000 words and 56 signatures, the indonesian notification of independence could have been written on a sticky look.

Their proclamation had only 2 signatures and went as results:

We the population of indonesia hereby mouth the independence of indonesia. Matters which concern the transfer of energy and another ideas will be executed by right medians and in the shortest inherent time. Jakarta, 17 august 1945

In the name of the population of indonesia soekarno - hatta

The proclamation was conventional and a fresh country was formed. Now that's getting to the point!
