'''North Kalimantan''' ({{wp|Malay language|Malay}}: ''Kalimantan Utara'') is one of the twelve states of {{wp|Malaysia}}. Located entirely in {{wp|East Malaysia}}, it shares the island of {{wp|Borneo}} with {{wp|Indonesia}} whose region of {{wp|Kalimantan}} is bordered to the south. The combination of {{wp|Brunei}} and the {{wp|British}} crown colonies of {{wp|Crown Colony of Sarawak|Sarawak}} and {{wp|Crown Colony of North Borneo|North Borneo}}, with an area of 204,119 km2, it is the largest state in {{wp|Malaysia}} along with a population of around 6.8 million people, thereby making it the second-most-populous state behind {{wp|Selangor}} in {{wp|West Malaysia}}.


'''North Kalimantan''', officially the '''Sultanate of North Borneo''', is a country in {{wp|Southeast Asia}} situated on the northern portion of the island of {{wp|Borneo}}. To the south, it is bordered by {{wp|Indonesia}}, with whom it shares the {{wp|Borneo|island}}, while otherwise surrounded by the {{wp|South China Sea}} to the north, east, and west, separating it from {{wp|Vietnam}}, the {{wp|Philippines}}, and {{wp|Federation of Malaya|Malaya}}.
Formed in 1963 as a single state that later joined to form {{wp|Malaysia}}, its capital has been {{wp|Bandar Seri Begawan}}, the traditional capital of the former {{wp|Bruneian Sultanate (1368–1888)|Bruneian Empire}}, while its largest city is {{wp|Kota Kinabalu}} located in the former {{wp|crown colony}} of {{wp|Crown Colony of North Borneo|North Borneo}}.

Founded in 1961 by the {{wp|Treaty of North Kalimantan}} which combined the {{wp|British}} protectorate of {{wp|Brunei}} and the crown colonies of {{wp|Crown Colony of Sarawak|Sarawak}} and {{wp|Crown Colony of North Borneo|North Borneo}}, North Kalimantan, as envisioned by its "founding father", namely {{wp|Bruneian}} politician {{wp|A. M. Azahari}}, became a unitary state and a constitutional monarchy with the {{wp|Sultan of Brunei}} as its ceremonial figurehead. Since then, despite a firm majority of its population being of the {{wp|Islamic}} faith, the country is known for its diverse ethnic makeup with {{wp|Bornean}} natives making up a plurality of the population, followed by the {{wp|Malays}}, the second-largest ethnic group, and the {{wp|Chinese}}, the third-largest ethnic group. Inspired largely by their former {{wp|British}} overlords, the country operates under a {{wp|Westminster system}}, consisting of a bicameral parliament and an elected prime minister, while also utilising {{wp|common law}} as its legal system.
A constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system, North Kalimantan has been ruled by the {{wp|House of Bolkiah}} with the current monarch being {{wp|Hassanal Bolkiah}} who serves as head of state while the head of government is an elected chief minister, currently {{wp|Abang Abdul Rahman Johari}}.
 
Since its independence, North Kalimantan has been a member of various international organisations including {{wp|United Nations}}, {{wp|ASEAN}}, {{wp|OIC}}, {{wp|Non-Aligned Movement}}, and the {{wp|Commonwealth of Nations}}.

The combination of Brunei and the British crown colonies of Sarawak and North Borneo, with an area of 204,119 km2, it is the largest state in Malaysia along with a population of around 6.8 million people, thereby making it the second-most-populous state behind Selangor in West Malaysia.
