Timor is an island located at the southern edge of Maritime Southeast Asia, positioned north of the Timor Sea and named for its easternmost location along the Lesser Sunda Islands chain. It matters geographically because of its strategic position close to mainland Australia (less than 500 km away) and its substantial land area within a key Southeast Asian maritime region.

Timor is een eiland in het zuiden van de Indische archipel, of de Kleine Soenda-eilanden, dat wordt verdeeld tussen de onafhankelijke staat Oost-Timor, en West-Timor, een deel van de Indonesische provincie Nusa Tenggara Timur. Het heeft een oppervlakte van 30.777 km². De naam is een variant van timur, Maleis voor 'het oosten'; het is zo genoemd omdat het in het oosten van een ketting van eilanden ligt. Afhankelijk van de definitie kan Timor zowel bij Oceanië, als bij Azië gerekend worden.
