The war where Indonesians had to fend off the colonies (dutch, german, french, etc.) It was bloody epic.

The Revolution Northwest Indian War The America-France "War" (not exactly considered a full war as we never declared it and didn't fully participate) Barbary Pirates War of 1812 Barbary Pirates Part 2 Seminole War ...a whole bunch of mini-wars versus native americans (think continual fighting)... Seminole War Part 2 Texas Revolution Mexican-American War (lots more continual wars versus native americans, plus Seminole War part 3) Second Opium War (I literally did not know we were involved in that...stupid Buchanan) The Civil War (EXTREME SADNESS.) (more continual native america war things...extreme sadness as well) This Random short military thing in Korea..(not the Korean war, that's later) Spanish-American War (just assume continued war versus native americans...is sad, I know) Philippine War of Independence Boxer Rebellion Honduras Cuba Nicaragua Mexican Revolution Haiti Dominican Republic WWI Russian Civil War WWII Cold War Korean War* (sometimes considered part of the "Cold" War) Vietnam War* (sometimes considered part of the "Cold" War) 1958, Lebanon, and Lebanon Civil War Military action in Libya. Gulf of Sidra Iran-Iraq War Gulf War Somali Civil War Bosnia Haiti, again (Operation Uphold Democracy) Afghanistan and Sudan (Operation Infinite Reach...interesting name...) Kosovo The Global War on Terror Second Libirian Civil War 04 Haitian Rebellion ... ... ...And I think that's it. That's just the "Wars", though, we've had more military involvements.

Uh... War of Spanish Succession Lots of Jacobite Risings War of Quadruple Alliance Dummer's War War of Austrian Succession Seven Years War Various Carnatic War Various Anglo-Mysore Wars Anglo-Maratha American Revolutionary War War of the Coalitions (First, Second, etc.) War in the Vendee Various Irish Rebellions Anglo-Turkish War Anglo-Russian War Peninsular Wars Anglo-Dutch Java War Napoleon Wars Portugal Civil War Opium Wars Crimean War War of Nicaragua Anglo-Persian Indian Mutiny New Zealand Land Wars Boer War Boxer Rebellion WW1 Turkish War of Independence Anglo-Afghan Wars Irish War of Independence Great Arab Revolt in Palestine WW2 Malayan Emergency Korean War Suez Crisis Cod Wars The Troubles Falklands War Gulf War Desert Fox War Kosovo War Sierra Leone Civil War Afghanistan Iraq I've put a lot of wars into one category, so for example, The Carnatic Wars includes all three, the Coalition Wars include all four and so on and so forth. If you're a country, I've probably been in a war against you at some point.

Are you sure? I don't think Indonesia got affected by this at all. Only the Malaysians probably.

Still a war, I should think. And 'twas Britain and Malaysia against Indonesia, so that still counts

Well, ya know. Indonesia-Malaysia Confrontation. ((Tbh, I've never heard of it, so I'm assuming it was a pretty small-scale war))
