Detailed Solution

The Dutch established control over Java.
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, the Dutch East Indies was one of the most expensive colonies under European sovereignty and contributed to the Dutch dominance in the spice and cash trade. The Dutch colonized Java. During the 19th century, Dutch property and influence grew, reaching a greater territory by the beginning of the 20th century. The colonial social structure was founded on a rigid racial and social hierarchy, and the Dutch aristocracy lived solely among the indigenous population.

Indigenous scholars laid the groundwork for the independence struggle by establishing Indonesia as a nation-state at the start of the twentieth century.
