Prince Diponegoro single-handedly bankrupted the Dutch colonial empire and accidentally
triggered the chain reaction for Indonesia's freedom. It all started because the Dutch disrespected
him by building a road over his ancestors' graves. That war lasted five years and cost
the colonizers twenty million gulden. They were so broke they had to invent the brutal forced
cultivation system just to survive. That cruelty eventually backfired, forcing them to
offer education to locals as an apology. Those educated kids then grew up to
lead the national movement, proving Diponegoro’s rebellion was the snowball that eventually
crushed colonialism.
