Note:
The Republik Indonesia Serikat
(Republic of the United States of Indonesia), which
existed from 27 Dec 1949 to 17 Aug 1950, consisted of: (1)
seven units styled negara ("state"),
among which was, prominently, Republik
Indonesia (Republic of Indonesia), styled
for this purpose (and indeed in all the preliminary
negotiations, 1946-49) Negara Republik
Indonesia (State of the Republic of
Indonesia); (2) nine autonomous entities (daerah
otonom) listed in the constitution; these
are usually, though incorrectly, referred to simply as daerah
("area"), a style that actually was borne in
their name by only two of them (in addition to the
preliminary stages of two negara),
as shown below; (3) a Federal District, also mentioned in
the constitution; and (4) three "left-over" entities, not
listed in the constitution: the traditional polity Kota
Waringin on Kalimantan (Borneo), and the territories of
Padang dan sekitarnya and Sabang on Sumatra.Names
of people, entities and parties are given in modern
Indonesian orthography, adopted in 1972.
