East Timor (formally known as Timor-Leste) is a country comprised of the eastern half of the island of Timor. Its independence from Indonesia was formally recognized in 2002. The capital city is Dili. East Timor is home to 6 Ribus and 1 Spesial.

The two most prominent mountains are both excellent hikes. Whereas the Matebean mountains are some of the most rugged terrain in this part of the world, the climb to the summit of Ramelau must be the easiest for a mountain of its height across the entire archipelago.
