Skirmishing with the Dutch in the region eventually resulted in an 1859 treaty in which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/portugal-google-maps\/\">Portugal<\/a> ceded the western portion of the island. Imperial <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/japan-google-maps\/\">Japan<\/a> occupied Portuguese Timor from 1942 to 1945, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/portugal-google-maps\/\">Portugal<\/a> resumed colonial authority after the Japanese defeat in World War II. East Timor declared itself independent from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/portugal-google-maps\/\">Portugal<\/a> on 28 November 1975 and was invaded and occupied by Indonesian forces nine days later. It was incorporated into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/indonesia-google-maps\/\">Indonesia<\/a> in July 1976 as the province of Timor Timur (East Timor). An unsuccessful campaign of pacification followed over the next two decades, during which an estimated 100,000 to 250,000 people died. In an August 1999 UN-supervised popular referendum, an overwhelming majority of the people of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/timor-leste-google-maps\/\">Timor-Leste<\/a> voted for independence from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/indonesia-google-maps\/\">Indonesia<\/a>. However, in the next three weeks, anti-independence Timorese militias &#8211; organized and supported by the Indonesian military &#8211; commenced a large-scale, scorched-earth campaign of retribution. The militias killed approximately 1,400 Timorese and forced 300,000 people into western Timor as refugees. Most of the country&#8217;s infrastructure, including homes, irrigation systems, water supply systems, and schools, and nearly all of the country&#8217;s electrical grid were destroyed. On 20 September 1999, Australian-led peacekeeping troops deployed to the country and brought the violence to an end. On 20 May 2002, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/timor-leste-google-maps\/\">Timor-Leste<\/a> was internationally recognized as an independent state.In 2006, internal tensions threatened the new nation&#8217;s security when a military strike led to violence and a breakdown of law and order. At Dili&#8217;s request, an Australian-led International Stabilization Force (ISF) deployed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/timor-leste-google-maps\/\">Timor-Leste<\/a>, and the UN Security Council established the UN Integrated Mission in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/timor-leste-google-maps\/\">Timor-Leste<\/a> (UNMIT), which included an authorized police presence of over 1,600 personnel. The ISF and UNMIT restored stability, allowing for presidential and parliamentary elections in 2007 in a largely peaceful atmosphere. In February 2008, a rebel group staged an unsuccessful attack against the president and prime minister. The ringleader was killed in the attack, and most of the rebels surrendered in April 2008. Since the attack, the government has enjoyed one of its longest periods of post-independence stability, including successful 2012 elections for both the parliament and president and a successful transition of power in February 2015. In late 2012, the UN Security Council ended its peacekeeping mission in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/timor-leste-google-maps\/\">Timor-Leste<\/a> and both the ISF and UNMIT departed the country.
