Timor is an island located at the southern edge of Maritime Southeast Asia, positioned north of the Timor Sea and named for its easternmost location along the Lesser Sunda Islands chain. It matters geographically because of its strategic position close to mainland Australia (less than 500 km away) and its substantial land area within a key Southeast Asian maritime region.
