East Timor

"East Timor? The only Southeast Asian country that's not part of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations? Well, that sounds bullcrap because I don't think East Timor's been looking forward to seeing itself as a proud ASEAN member, and so if they have to say no, then let's teach them a little lesson."

--Su Ji-Hoon, A Little Lesson

East Timor (/ˌiːst ˈtiːmɔːr/) or Timor-Leste (/tiˈmɔːr ˈlɛʃteɪ/; Tetum: Timór Lorosa'e), officially the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste (Portuguese: República Democrática de Timor-Leste, Tetum: Repúblika Demokrátika Timór-Leste), is a sovereign state in Maritime Southeast Asia. It comprises the eastern half of the island of Timor, the nearby islands of Atauro and Jaco, and Oecusse, an exclave on the northwestern side of the island surrounded by Indonesian West Timor. Australia is the country's southern neighbor, separated by the Timor Sea. The country's size is about 15,410 km2 (5,400 sq mi).
