'''Pinang''', officially the '''Free State of Pinang''' (Dutch: ''Vrijstaat Pinaang'', Soedanese: ''Negeri Babas Penang'', Chinese: 自由邦檳城), is a sovereign microstate located on the Malayan peninsula. The country's territory is composed of the main island of Pinang along with a hinterland that stretches north to the Merbok river, east to the Bintang mountains and south past the municipality of Taiping. The combined area of the nation has increased by some 20% since its founding, mainly due to extensive land reclamation projects as well as territorial swaps with the Union of Soenda.
