Indonesia consists of thousands of islands, each with their own ethnic groups and cultures. There are over 500 languages spoken across the diverse islands and provinces. The six official religions in Indonesia - Buddhism, Christianity, Catholicism, Islam, Hinduism and Confucianism - each have their own traditions, but all teach goodness. While diversity exists in Indonesia's people, languages and beliefs, there is also unity as one nation with a shared national identity and language. Maintaining unity amidst diversity will continue to strengthen the Indonesian nation.

Kalimantan, Papua, Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi and many more. In these islands there are diverse ethnic groups including in Papua there are Asmat, Dani and others, in Java there are Tengger, Samin, Sundanese, and others. Each island and tribe has its own uniqueness that characterizes the differences between one tribe and another. There is no truest tribe, all tribes have the same flaws and strengths that can be characteristic of the tribe itself. But of the various islands in Indonesia, we are all united into one country, namely the State of Indonesia. In addition to diverse islands and ethnic groups, Indonesia also has a variety of languages. The languages recorded in Indonesia have more than 500 languages. Almost every province in Indonesia has a different language as the province of South Sumatra has a different language than the province of West Sumatra. But from the existing language differences, there is a unifying language that is Indonesian. With Indonesian, people from different cultures can communicate more easily with Indonesian. So it is very important for us to learn and uphold the Indonesian Language which is one of the unifying tools of the diversity of the Indonesian Nation. There are also six religions in Indonesia. There are 6 official religions in Indonesia, namely Buddhism, Kong Hu Chu, Catholicism, Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism. Each of these religions also has a variety of differences such as places of worship, ways of worship, holidays and holy books. But keep in mind that no religion is the best. All religions equally teach goodness. But it is still often forgotten by the community so that there are still many conflicts between religions because of their most correct religious thought and other religions not. This can be a nation-breaking that we must leave. In addition to official religions in Indonesia, there are also many ancestral religions that existed before the official religions entered. Like, Sunda Wiwitan, which is a religion that has been adopted by a group of Sundanese people since hundreds of years ago and the people who embrace this religion are found in the region of Kenakes, Cigugur, and others. Indonesian citizens have a different color. We must accept the differences. We must be proud to be part of the Indonesian Nation with the diversity that exists because diversity is what will become an advantage for the Indonesian nation itself. But now there are still many parties that can cause a conflict that can be a break up of the Indonesian Nation. We should as Indonesian citizens continue to uphold the things that unite the Nation. We should know what we have to improve and we must leave behind to continue the unity of the Indonesian Nation.
