Located in the Indonesian Archipelago, it is one of the newest countries in the world, Timor-Leste, or, as it's sometimes known in English, East Timor.
While geographically very close, and pretty much surrounded by Indonesia, Timor-Leste has had a history very different from Indonesia.
Their histories diverged when they became colonized by different countries and came to a head in the late 20th century.
Learn more about Timor-Leste and its long painful path to independence on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
