Jakarta officially became the capital of Indonesia in 1949, following the country's Declaration of Independence from Dutch colonial rule in 1945. Initially, the capital was located in Yogyakarta during the Indonesian National Revolution. However, due to its strategic location and status as a major economic and cultural hub, Jakarta was designated as the capital. The city has remained the capital ever since, playing a crucial role in Indonesia's political and administrative landscape.
