The Revolutionary Government of the Republic of Indonesia (Indonesian: Pemerintahan Revolusioner Republik Indonesia, abbr. PRRI) was a revolutionary government set up in Sumatra to oppose the central government of Indonesia in 1958.[1]
Although frequently referred to as the PRRI/Permesta rebellion, the Permesta rebels were a separate movement in Sulawesi, that had pledged allegiance with the PRRI on 17 February 1958.[2][3]
