Battle Of Nanggulon
The Battle of Nanggulon was an engagement in the Java War between the Dutch colonial forces and rebel forces of Prince Diponegoro, commanded by Sentot Prawirodirdjo, which took place on 28 December 1828. The rebel forces launched an attack on a Dutch detachment close to a newly constructed Dutch fortification, inflicting heavy casualties before being repulsed by another unit.

Java War
The Java War (; ; ), also known in Indonesia as the Diponegoro War (; ), was an armed conflict in central and eastern Java from 1825 to 1830, between native Javanese rebels headed by Prince Diponegoro and the Dutch East Indies supported by Javanese princely states. It is considered a watershed in Javanese history, culture, and society. During the early nineteenth century, declining Dutch power along with increased centralization of colonial authorities through brief French and British controls had changed the political order established after the 1755 Treaty of Giyanti, at the expense of the native Javanese princely states. After the deaths of Sultans of Yogyakarta Hamengkubuwono III and IV, along with the return of Dutch presence, Hamengkubuwono III's eldest son Diponegoro became estranged from Yogyakarta's regency of Hamengkubuwono V and with the colonial government. With a millenarian movement emerging and claimed visions of a holy war, Diponegoro would launch his r ...
