Yep, it is Jakarta. The Prince was Prince Sheen of the Jakarta republic. Whenever they said where he was from if deffinately sounded like there were 2 extra syllables, eg. 'Jah-kawrt-awr-ah-tah'. Perhaps they carried on the Japanese pronounciation into the english version, or maybe that's how Jakarta was pronounced in the late 1800s in english or japanese. Thanks a bunch!
