West Java borders Jakarta and [[Banten]] province to the west and [[Central Java]] to the east. To the north is the [[Java Sea]]. To the south is the [[Indian Ocean]]. Unlike most other provinces in Indonesia which have their capitals in coastal areas, the provincial capital, Bandung, is located in the mountainous area in the centre of the province. [[Banten]] Province was formerly part of West Java but was created a separate province in 2000. West Java, in the densely populated western third of Java and covering a land area of 37,040.04 km<sup>2</sup> (larger than [[Guinea-Bissau]] or [[Ulyanovsk Oblast]]), is home to almost one out of every five Indonesians.
