During the Indonesian National Revolution, the Dutch forces launched two offensives known as Politionele acties against the Republican government of Indonesia from 1947 to 1949, this period is known as the re-occupation of Indonesia, or known in Indonesia as the period of military aggressions. The first offensive, coded as Operation Product, was launched from 21 July to 5 August 1947 to capture strategic locations in Sumatra and Java by occupying its cities, ports, and economic centers, between 1947 and 1948 there was an effort to create a ceasefire, and in January 17, 1948, an agreement was signed on a US warship USS Renville, the negotiation resulted in the establishment of a status quo line known as Van Mook Line, due to military disputes, the Dutch launched a surprise attack to capture the then-Indonesian capital of Jogjakarta, the second offensive was launched from 19 December 1948 to 5 January 1949, causing the capital of Jogjakarta to fell and the Indonesian government to established an underground government based in Bukittinggi.
Under the military occupation, the Dutch East Indies government placed territorial governance for each region in Sumatra and Java, with the administrative center of Jogjakarta. the island of Sumatra was divided into three territorial military governance, as well as Java under the administration of Dutch military personnel.
Military occupation in Indonesia ended in mid to late 1949, with the Dutch officially recognizing the independence of Indonesia through the Round Table Conference held in the Hague on 2 November 1949.
