A large tropical island in Southeast Asia, shared by three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei.
The name may derive from Sanskrit 'Varuṇa' (a Hindu god) or from local Malay language roots. European traders adopted a version of the local name when they arrived in the region.
Borneo is the third-largest island in the world and has rainforests so ancient they're basically living dinosaur museums—they contain species found nowhere else on Earth!
