The Balinese people (Indonesian: Suku Bali; Balinese: ᬳᬦᬓ᭄ᬩᬮᬶ, romanized: Ânak Bali) are an Austronesian ethnic group native to the Indonesian island of Bali. The Balinese population of 4.2 million (1.7% of Indonesia's population) live mostly on the island of Bali, making up 89% of the island's population.[6] There are also significant populations on the island of Lombok and in the easternmost regions of Java (e.g. the regency of Banyuwangi). The Balinese are distinctive amongst Indonesian ethnic groups for their adherence to Balinese Hinduism rather than Sunni Islam.
