Greater Sunda Islands
The Greater Sunda Islands are a group of large islands within the Malay Archipelago. Many are included in present-day Indonesia: Java, smallest but by far the most populous; Sumatra in the west, directly across the Strait of Malacca from Malaysia; large Borneo, the Indonesian sector of which is called Kalimantan; and wishbone-shaped, distended Sulawesi (formerly Celebes) to the east.〔Blij, H. J., & Muller, P. O. (2010). ''Geography: Realms, Regions, and Concepts'' (14th ed.). Hoboken, NJ: J. Wiley & Sons. ISBN 0-470-46242-6〕 Under some definitions, only Java, Sumatra and Borneo are included in the Greater Sunda Islands.〔Mackinnon, John & Phillipps, Karen (1993).

Together with the Lesser Sunda Islands, they make up the Sunda Islands.
