<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Geschichte">Geschichte</h2></div>
<p>Merauke (früher Ermasoe) wurde 1902 als niederländischer Militärposten gegründet, um Überfälle der als <a href="Kopfjagd" title="Kopfjagd">Kopfjäger</a> gefürchteten <a href="Marind-anim" title="Marind-anim">Marind-anim</a> in das benachbarte <a href="Britisch-Neuguinea" title="Britisch-Neuguinea">Britisch-Neuguinea</a> (heute ein Teil <a href="Papua-Neuguinea" title="Papua-Neuguinea">Papua-Neuguineas</a>) und auf die dazugehörigen <a href="Talbot-Inseln" title="Talbot-Inseln">Talbot-Inseln</a> zu verhindern. 1905 setzte die katholische Mission ein, die viele abstoßend erscheinende Sitten und Rituale abschaffte.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Heute ist Merauke Sitz eines <a href="Erzbischof" title="Erzbischof">Erzbischofs</a> (<a href="Erzbistum_Merauke" title="Erzbistum Merauke">Erzbistum Merauke</a>). 2005 feierte die katholische Kirche dort ihr 100-jähriges Jubiläum. Der Schweizer Völkerkundler <a href="Paul_Wirz_(Ethnologe)" title="Paul Wirz (Ethnologe)">Paul Wirz</a> begann 1916 von Merauke aus seine Arbeiten bei den Marind-anim.
</p><p>Im Zweiten Weltkrieg war Merauke eine Marinebasis der Alliierten im Kampf gegen Japan.
</p><p>Der indonesische Ausspruch <i>Dari Sabang sampai Merauke</i> („von Sabang bis Merauke“, also vom Norden <a href="Sumatra" title="Sumatra">Sumatras</a> bis in den Südosten Papua Selatans) dient als Ausdruck für die Bezeichnung des ganzen indonesischen Territoriums.
