🌍 Spice Trade in Nusantara's History
The first paragraph discusses the historical significance of the Indonesian archipelago, known as Nusantara, as a major producer of spices which were internationally traded commodities. The spices were used for medicinal purposes, as flavoring in cooking, and as food preservatives by various nations including Arabs, Indians, Chinese, and Europeans.
