Nasakom is an acronym for Nasionalisme, Agama, Komunisme (Nationalism, Religion, and Communism). It was a political concept coined by President Sukarno in Indonesia, which prevailed from 1959 during the Guided Democracy Era until the New Order in 1966.
Nasakom was Sukarno's attempt to create an Indonesian form of socialism that mixed socialist and nationalist ideas, adapting them to Indonesia's unique situation as a nation with thousands of islands, many ethnic groups, and diverse religions. It aimed to unite the nationalist, religious, and communist groups that held the most power in Indonesian politics at the time.
The concept of Nasakom played a significant role in the complex political landscape of [[Indonesia]] during the mid-20th century and was intertwined with the development and eventual downfall of Sukarno's Guided Democracy regime.
