Indonesian War of Independence Pt. 5 - A Costly Independence (Patreon)
Content
1949 is the last official year of the Indonesian War of Independence. But despite the strong Dutch position and the lack of further large scale military offensives, this is also the deadliest year of the entire conflict.
So this is the end of these series. We hoped you have enjoyed and appreciated them. Thank you all for making this possible. We are very proud of the result and on the fact that it is truly a community project. We picked the topic together with you, we had a lot of community help with fact-checking and colorizing and you shared loads of additional intriguing stories and experiences in the comments. This wouldn't have been possible without you.
Next week, we'll have something different related to the Indonesia series. But then we will move on to the reshot and re-edited Cuban Missile Crisis series, which we will publish day-by-day as the crisis unfolded over the span of two weeks! We can't wait for you to see it!
Stay safe and stay sane!
Cheers,
Joram
