Diponegoro War
(Historical Report)
Indonesia has experienced a dark period of being colonized by the Dutch colonialists for 3.5 centuries.
During this colonial period, there were many resistance by the Indonesian people from various regions.
One of the Indonesian people's resistance to Dutch colonial rule was the Diponegoro War.
The Diponegoro War or Java War was a major war and lasted for five years from 1825-1830. This war was
motivated by the hatred of the Javanese people against the Dutch for the oppression that occurred in Java.
As the name implies, this war was led by Pangeran Diponegoro who was the prince of the Yogyakarta
Sultanate.
In its history, since the arrival of Marshal Herman Willem Daendels in Batavia, Dutch colonial influence
has become increasingly apparent on the island of Java, especially the Yogyakarta Palace. Where,
Daendels changed the etiquette and ceremony procedures which caused hatred on the part of the Javanese
Palace. The Yogyakarta Palace party to take access to various natural and human resources by mobilizing
its military power.
After Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono IV died, Yogyakarta Resident Jonkheer Anthonie Hendrik Smissaert
interfered a lot in matters of palace power. Where, many unilateral policies smoothed by him. At that time,
Pangeran Diponegoro, who became the regent of the King, could not stand the presence of the Dutch at
the Yogyakarta Palace and finally he chose to return to his residence in Tegalrejo.
In mid-May 1825, Smissaert decided to repair the small roads around Yogyakarta. However, the
road construction which was originally from Yogyakarta to Magelang through Muntilan was
diverted through the eastern fence of Tegalrejo and the Dutch were pegged by road repairs along
the ancestral grave of Pangeran Diponegoro.
It was this Dutch action that angered Pangeran Diponegoro and the local people. Finally, Pangeran
Diponegoro replaced the stakes with spears as a sign of a declaration of war against the Dutch.
Pangeran Diponegoro launched a strategy of war against the Dutch for five years. He used guerrilla
tactics by carrying out cover-ups, blitzkriegs, and invisible sieges. Meanwhile, to fight and defeat
Diponegoro's troops, the Dutch led by General Hendrik De Kock implemented the Fort Stelsel
strategy, namely by establishing a fort in each controlled area and connected by roads so that
communication and troop movements would move smoothly.
In the end, Fort Stelsel's strategy succeeded in breaking up the opposing forces so that they were
easier to defeat. Where, in 1829 Kyai Mojo as the spiritual leader of the rebellion was arrested,
after which Pangeran Mangkubumi and his main commander Sentot Alibasah Prawirodirjo
surrendered to the Dutch.
Finally, on March 28, 1830, General De Kock succeeded in pinning Diponegoro's troops in
Magelang. There, Pangeran Diponegoro stated that he was willing to surrender on the
condition that the remaining members of his army were released. Therefore, Pangeran
Diponegoro was arrested and exiled to Manado then transferred to Makassar until his death at
Roterdam Fort on January 8, 1855.
The Diponegoro War was one of the biggest battles the Dutch had ever experienced during
their occupation of the archipelago. As a result of this war, the Javanese population who died
reached 200 thousand people while the death toll on the Dutch side was 8,000 Dutch soldiers
and 7,000 indigenous soldiers. The end of the Diponegoro War confirmed Dutch control over
Java Island.
