Banda Aceh (English spelling)

Japanese: バンダ・アチェ(英語表記)Banda Aceh
Banda Aceh (English spelling)
The capital of the Aceh Special Region, located at the northern tip of Sumatra, Indonesia. It is located at the mouth of the Aceh River and has a population of 143,000 (1990). There is a theory that the predecessor of this town was a small port city called Ramli or Rambri, which is thought to have existed in the vicinity and is called Lanwuli or Nanli in Chinese books, but there is no definite proof. The name Banda Aceh has been known as the royal capital of the Aceh Kingdom since the 16th century, but it is commonly called Kuta Raja (royal capital). As the kingdom adopted a policy of limiting trade of pepper, which was abundantly produced within its territory, to this town, it flourished as one of the world's leading pepper trading centers in the 16th and 17th centuries.

Japanese:
インドネシア,スマトラ島北端,アチェ特別州の州都。アチェ川河口部にあり,人口14万3000(1990)。かつてこの付近に存在したと推定されるラムリまたはランブリ,漢籍では藍無里,喃里なる小港市国をこの町の前身とする説もあるが確証はない。バンダ・アチェの名は16世紀以降,アチェ王国の王都として知られるが,通称クタ・ラジャ(王都)が多く用いられた。同王国は領内に豊富に産したコショウの貿易をこの町のみに限る政策をとったため,ここは16,17世紀世界有数のコショウ貿易地として栄えた。
