The purpose of this writing is the character values in the proclamation of Indonesian independence. The method used is a literature review and sources from the book History of Indonesia, the internet with a descriptive explorative approach. The results of this study found that there were educational character values in the event of Indonesian independence, namely: The leadership shown by Soekarno and Hatta in the proclamation process showed the importance of having a vision, courage, and the ability to lead in critical situations. The decision to proclaim independence unilaterally showed a spirit of independence and courage to stand on one's own two feet, despite facing great challenges. The freedom fighters were willing to sacrifice everything, including their lives, in order to achieve independence for the nation. The Proclamation of Independence was the result of cooperation between various groups that had the same goals, even though they came from different backgrounds. The courage of the leaders and the people in fighting the colonizers and taking great risks for independence showed a high value of courage. After the proclamation, the responsibility for building an independent country became a shared responsibility, not only the leaders but also the entire people. The leaders and freedom fighters had high integrity by being consistent in their principles and goals of their struggle.
