History of Aceh

Initially, Aceh Province is named Aceh Darussalam, later changed to the Special Region of Aceh in 1959 up to you 2001.

Later in the year 2001-2009 again underwent a name change, namely to Nanggo Aceh Arussalam.

In the year 2009 changed back to the province of Aceh and until now the name is not still used.

The descendants of the Acehnese are from Persian lands. which we often hear that Aceh comes from an Arabic name, China, Europe and India.

Aceh built the area next to the island of Ruja (Sumatra). Aceh comes from the Achemenist nation who are in a Caucasus hill located in Central Europe.

Achemenis live 2500 years before Christ. This nation is a nation that often migrates to spread throughout the world in Asia, European Africa and the island of Ruja (Sumatra).

Then there was a descendant who moved to Persian land who later became the Persian nation.

And there is another descendant who moved to the island of Ruja (Sumatra) who later became the Acehnese.

Thus, Aceh comes from the Achemenians, Persia and Aceh. even so there is something interesting from Aceh, where religious symbols are maintained in the atmosphere of dayah or zawiyah .

Then Aceh became the center of the source of Islamic religious knowledge. When Aceh will be colonized, all tribes and scholars of Aceh agreed to fight the occupation.

The hatred of the Acehnese towards colonialism is not an ethnic or historical hatred.

But hatred because to fight tyranny or oppression and colonialism in the form of jihad.

Jihad is an Islamic law which means to fight earnestly.

In the history of Acehnese culture, well the question of uniting and separating becomes a very common thing.

They can unite with anyone but the culture that has been attached to the Islamic tradition cannot be stopped.

What's more, their spirit of nationalism is part of Indonesia which has never been betrayed in its struggle even today.
