Abstract: The background of this paper recounts the superiority of the guerrilla war strategy carried out by Prince Diponegoro in his war against the Dutch East Indies army. Prince Diponegoro and his troops won this battle, because in addition to his war strategy, this war was also supported by various resources in the Yogyakarta and surrounding areas. The purpose of this research is to emulate the spirit of fighting spirit and nationalism of Pangeran Diponegoro in order to defend his people and maintain the integrity and sovereignty of his country. In addition, this study aims to further enhance the spirit of defending the State for the Indonesian people with the support of current technological developments. This research method is a qualitative approach, the type of research is history, especially the roles and figures of past struggles whose names are still remembered in the present and in the future. The results showed that the guerrilla warfare that was applied by PangeranDiponegoro had its existence today and in the future, which could still be emulated. However, it is necessary to modernize the equipment of the Indonesian armed forces, as well as improve the guerrilla warfare strategy, so that it does not take place conventionally in accordance with the increasing development of the latest technology. The existence of state defense forces needs to be maintained, but the material needs to deepen the understanding of state defense including material on religion, ideology, and the latest technological developments..
