    In today's episode of Europa Universalis IV challenges, I'm given a challenge by a patron to only own islands as Majapahit, and to form Malaya. I eventually have to own all islands in the Pacific (which doesn't include land in the Indian Ocean)

    Yes, I mispronounced it intentionally. It's a lot weirder if you haven't seen the Bill Wurtz video
    I didn't show all of the colonization but you can check the save file on this discord to see that I did get them. (Or you just zoom in on the teaser image)

    It's probably over 25000, but it is very difficult to count exactly. What is the definition of an island? And some authorities in the area are not clear about this. For this example I'm going to use the country of Indonesia: in 1996, Indonesia just said "we're not going to count all this, but we claim Indonesia consists out of 17508 islands". But other sources claim anywhere between 13000 and 18000. And I suppose this number varies just as well with all the other countries in the region, and the region as a whole.

    The islands of Indonesia, also known as the Indonesian Archipelago or Nusantara, may refer either to the islands comprising the country of Indonesia or to the geographical groups which include its islands. According to the Indonesian Coordinating Ministry for Maritime and Investments Affairs, of 17,508 officially listed islands within the territory of the Republic of Indonesia,[1] 16,671 island names have been verified by the United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN) as of 2018.[2] This makes Indonesia the world's largest island country.[3]
