==History==
West Sumatraball is another kind of  1ball who migrated to interior of Sumatra and settled in West Sumatra's highlands from east. Some of them also settled on Mentawai Island off the coast, which they later developed new culture that is very different from their Sumatran brethren. After adopting Hinduism they established several kingdoms throughout history, in which the most dominant is  Kingdom of Dharmasrayaball but they fell under Majapahitball's influence.
 Islam entered in 14th century. With the entrance of Islam, the customary rules that are contrarian to the teachings of Islam began to be replaced with the Islamic-based law. There is a famous Minangkabau custom proverb, "Adat basandi syarak, syarak basandi Kitabullah", which means that the Minangkabau adat is based on Islam, while Islam is based on the Qur'an. But in some cases, several systems and methods of adat are still maintained. And in this era Pagaruyung Sultanateball gained prominence but they hate economical monopolies conducted by their neighbor, Aceh Sultanateball, so they rebelled and asked Dutch East India Companyball help. This started European influence in the area.
In 18th century, VOCball's annoying trade system irritated Pagaruyung Sultanateball so they asked European powers again to remove them, now UKball, and managed to capture Padang from them.
In 19th century, several ulama who returned from Hajj in Meccaball started a movement which seeks to remove some adat which considered not Islamic. This led to a civil war called Padri War between adat and ulama in which Netherlandsball entered the conflict. Weakened by civil war, both adat and ulama easily crushed by Netherlandsball and their leader, Tuanku Imam Bonjol, exiled to Manadoball. 
After being incorporated into Dutch East Indiesball, the Dutch built many infrastructures, especially after coal discovery in Ombilin in 1876. This made him rich and helped Dutch East Indiesball develop this province by building numerous schools and cooperating with locals.
Because of this, West Sumatraball has numerous educated people in the 20th century, and many of them are involved in Indonesiaball independence movement. Also at this time European missionaries started converting Mentawai Islands natives into Christianity because many of them still on their old religion Sabulungan. They created Gereja Kristen Protestan Mentawai (Protestant Church of Mentawai) on July 9, 1916. Until now the majority of native Mentawai residents are Christian (~75% of local population), and Muslims are mainly immigrants from Minangkabau and other ethnicities.
 Empire of Japanball briefly occupied West Sumatra in 1942, followed by turmoil period after Indonesiaball proclaimed independence against  Netherlandsball.  It is important to note that Bukittinggi in West Sumatra were used as emergency capital of Indonesia during Operatie Kraai (1948).
After Indonesian independence, in 1956 there is political turmoil because some of military generals and politicians were dissatisfied with lack of progression and development, which made worse with government instability, they declared a movement named Pemerintah Revolusioner Republik Indonesia (Revolutionary Government of the Republic of Indonesia) led by Col. Ahmad Hussein. Among major figure leading this movement is Assaat, a West Sumatran native. They made connection with Permesta (Piagam Perjuangan Semesta) in Sulawesi and rebelled against government, but not a separatist movement. Soekarno reacted seriously and arrested and quelled the rebellion which somewhat ravaged West Sumatran countryside.
On 30 September 2009 West Sumatra suffered a 7.6 Mw earthquake which left 1,115 dead. Mentawai Islands off the coast suffered a tsunami.
==Traits==
West Sumatra is known for their rumah makan padang (Padang food restaurant) with iconic spicy cuisine, anschlussing ​​​​​ widespread in every city in Indonesiaball ​​​​.​ They also developed rantau, a tradition of migrating to other city outside West Sumatra to have a wörk. They also have one of the best surfing spot in the world in Mentawai Islands.
West Sumatra is religious, together with Acehball tied as conservative  Islam's stronghold in Indonesia. However unlike Acehball it is not separatist, they are instead VERY nationalist and supports Indonesiaball unity because not only there is soo many Minangkabau people helped its independence, as an Islamic society they believed Indonesia as a tool to develop and strengthen Islamic unity in Southeast Asia. This is unlike Acehball who is historically only recorded helping with donations without major figure on Indonesian political struggle, and Soekarno accidentally neglected them by making Aceh part of North Sumatraball, despite having promised autonomy and Islamic governance special for Aceh. Because of that Acehball felt betrayed and decided to rebel until 2005 where it finally accepted peace with Indonesiaball.
