Indonesia, around the 16th century experienced major change due to the
expansion of Islamic religion.
The fall of Majapahit Kingdom, the most famous and considered by many
as the most successful Hindu-Javanese kingdom in the history of Indonesia, marked the peak of
Balinese culture.
Artists, priests, and Hindu royal families members from Java were all fleeing to Bali and
brought with them their skills, books, and other valuables.
Bali is the only place in Indonesia whose majority of the people remains
Hindu today.
