Indramayu
Indramayu (ꦆꦤ꧀ꦢꦿꦩꦪꦸ; 南麻由), named after the God Indra, is a town and district which serves as the capital of Indramayu Regency in the West Java province of Indonesia, and is located in the northern coastal area of West Java, east from Jakarta, north-east from the city of Bandung, and north-west of the city of Cirebon. Most of its land are situated below sea level, which makes the district vulnerable to high tide in stormy conditions. The district is only protected by some dunes and barrages at the seaside.
Dermayu is the old name of Indramayu, formerly the Indramayu area in the form of the Dermayu Sultanate since it was founded by Sultan Khalif Aria Wirasamudra in 1478 after independence from the Majapahit Kingdom. Sultan Marangali was the last Dermayu Sultan in 1770, after that this area became the Indramayu Residency or City as the beginning of the dynastic transition to guided democracy.
