  • The Madurese aka Orang Madura and Suku Madura are an ethnic group originally from the island of Madura but now found in many parts of Indonesia, where they are the third-largest ethnic group by population. Common features of most Madurese throughout the archipelago include Islamic religion and the use of the Madurese language. The Madurese are a religious ethnic, mostly joint with Nahdlatul Ulama, a moderate Muslim organization in Indonesia. Pesantren has a pivotal role in Madurese life. While the Madurese have roots on Madura, off the northeastern coast of Java, the majority of Madurese do not now live on that island. The Madurese people have migrated out of Madura over several hundred years, mostly driven by poor agricultural resources in their home island. The majority have settled on Java, where an estimated nine million Madurese live, especially in East Java where they form about half the population. The Madurese were also major clients of the government transmigration programs of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, through which they settled in relatively sparsely populated areas of Indonesia's other islands, especially Kalimantan and Sumatra. As a result of this program, many regions of Indonesia have communities of former transmigrants and their descendants that maintain their Madurese identity. Some of these migrant groups have been the subject of conflict with indigenous communities. The best-publicicized conflict has been on Kalimantan, where thousands were killed in fighting between the Madurese and the indigenous Dayaks during the late 1990s. Family is important to the Madurese and they commonly live in villages that function around an Islamic religious center. According to Islamic law, a man may have more than one wife. Marriage proposals are usually made by the groom's parents, preferably to a first or second cousin. If the proposal is accepted, the bride's parents are then presented with the "bride price", which is usually cattle. The groom's parents then set the date for the upcoming wedding. Newlywed couples often live with the bride's family. Because the island of Madura has very poor soil, farming is not important in Madurese culture. As a result, the Madurese tend not to farm on other islands with very good soil, such as Java, and opt to herd cattle, fish, or sail instead. A common nickname for the Madurese is "cowboys" of Indonesia. Cattle are an important part of the culture, and bull-racing is one of their favorite sports. Islam is an integral part of the social, political and economic life of the Madurese.
  • Les Madurais sont un groupe ethnique originaire de l'île indonésienne de Madura, en face de la ville de Surabaya, capitale de la province de Java Est. Ils forment également une part importante de la population de la côte nord de cette province. Enfin, on trouve des communautés maduraises dans de nombreuses autres parties de l'Indonésie, notamment à Kalimantan, la partie indonésienne de l'île de Bornéo. En fait, la majorité des Madurais ne vit pas à Madura même. Au cours des siècles, ils ont émigré, en raison des faibles ressources agricoles de l'île, plate et aride. Les Madurais forment également une part importante des populations qui ont accepté le programme de transmigrasi, initié au début du XXe siècle par le gouvernement colonial des Indes néerlandaises, et poursuivi par le gouvernement indonésien après l'indépendance. Ce programme consiste à transplanter des gens des régions surpeuplées de Java, Madura et Bali vers les îles moins peuplées que sont Sumatra, Kalimantan et Célèbes. Les "transmigrants" madurais ont défrayé la chronique lors d'événements sanglants en 1999 et en 2001, notamment dans la province de Kalimantan Ouest. Les Madurais ont été victimes de tueries de la part des populations "indigènes", essentiellement dayak mais aussi malaises et parfois chinoises.
  • マドゥラ族（Madurese）はインドネシア諸族のうち、ジャワ族、スンダ族に告ぐ最大級の人口規模を誇るアウストロネシア語族インドネシア語派に属するマドゥラ語を使用する民族である。ただし、大多数の人がインドネシア語とのバイリンガルである。ジャワ島北東のマドゥラ島を礎としてジャワ島のスラバヤ、マランなどに約1000万人から1500万人が居住している。
  • Madoerezen zijn de autochtone bevolking van het Indonesische eiland Madoera, en omringende kleinere eilanden ten noordoosten van Java.

Madoerezen staan bekend door hun woeste, emotionele aard. Maar aan de andere kant, staan zij ook bekend om hun zuinigheid en hun werkvlijt. Madoerezen staan ook bekend als vrome moslims, ofschoon er ook christelijke Madoerezen zijn. Er bestaat een Madoerees gezegde dat de aard van de Madoerezen goed beschrijft: Lebbi Bagus Pote Tollang, atembang Pote Mata. De betekenis ervan is: "Het is beter om te sterven dan om beschaamd te zijn".
