Which sovereign state became independent of the United Kingdom on New Year's Day 1984?

I stopped there, overnight, with two bottles of scotch, duty free. It is a dry country. The customs man asked me 'are these for your personal use', 'yes'. I wondered "am I supposed to drink all that before my flight tomorrow?" No, they are good if you don't pollute the locals. I also thought I would buy a local dress for a friend. The females would not talk to me, although polite about it.

Brunei is also known as Negara Brunei Darussalam Darussalam (Arabic: دار السلام) means "abode of peace", while Negara means "country" in Malay.
