Gorontalo Of Tidore
Sultan Gorontalo (Jawi script, Jawi: ; died 10 August 1639) was the ninth Sultan of Tidore Sultanate, Tidore in Maluku Islands, ruling from 1634 to 1639. His brief reign was caught up in the tension between the Spanish Empire and the Dutch East India Company, leading to his violent death in 1639. Background The royal family of Tidore split into two competing lineages in the late 16th century. This was further complicated by the tense relation to Tidore's traditional rival, the Sultanate of Ternate, and by the intense rivalry between the European powers of Spain and the Netherlands. In 1599 the supposedly legitimate candidate Kaicili Kota was sidelined in favour of his half-brother Kaicili Mole Majimu, the reason being his inclination towards Ternate. Mole Majimu (r. 1599–1627) and his son and successor Ngarolamo (r. 1627–1634) held on to the old alliance with the Spanish, while Ternate was closely dependent on the Dutch East India Company or VOC. This led to decades of intermi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ngarolamo
Sultan Ngarolamo (b. c. 1590-d. July 1639) was the eighth Sultan of Tidore in Maluku Islands. He was also known as Sultan Alauddin or Kaicili Ngaro (Naro), ruling from 1627 to 1634. Due to a combination of factors he was deposed after a short reign and was eventually killed at the instigation of the Sultan of Ternate. Contested throne Kaicili (prince) Ngaro or Ngarolamo was the only son of Sultan Mole Majimu, being born around 1590. He was consequently groomed as Mole's successor and was co-ruling Tidore in the 1610s since his father was already quite old. Mole complained about the headstrong character of his son, who made unauthorized efforts to marry the widowed Queen of Jailolo, a princess from the rival Sultanate of Ternate. He was also a warrior of some note; in 1614 he raided Morotai, ostensibly to prevent it from moving over to Ternate and the VOC. This irritated the Spanish allies since he killed two baptized rulers and enslaved numbers of Christian people. Nor was he ...

Hamza Of Ternate
Sultan Hamza (died 6 May 1648) was the tenth Sultan of Ternate in the Maluku Islands. He ruled from 1627 to 1648, during a time when the Dutch East India Company (VOC) increasingly dominated this part of maritime Southeast Asia, and the increasing power of the Makassar kingdom threatened the Ternatan possessions. Spanish exile and return Hamza was the third son of Kaicili (prince) Tolu (d. c. 1590), himself a son of sultan Hairun (r. 1535–1570). His brothers were Hafsin, Naya and Kapita Laut Ali. When the Spanish invaded and occupied Ternate in 1606, Hamza was among the many members of the royal family who were brought to the Spanish Philippines as state prisoners. While in Manila he was Hispanicized in many ways: he was baptized and took the name Pedro de Acuña, after the Spanish governor who had led the 1606 invasion, and married in the church. Since he was therefore expected to follow Iberian interests, the Manila authorities allowed him to return to Ternate in 1627. At this ...

People From Maluku Islands
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...

List Of Rulers Of Maluku
This is a list of rulers of Maluku from proto-historical times until the present. The four sultanates of Ternate, Tidore, Jailolo and Bacan were considered descendants of a legendary figure called Jafar Sadik and formed a ritual quadripartition. Drawing wealth from the spice production and trade with other parts of Asia, Ternate and Tidore lorded over extensive realms which stretched from Sulawesi to Papua, while Jailolo and Bacan merely had local significance. They fell under Portuguese or Spanish influence in the sixteenth century, superseded by Dutch impact in the seventeenth century. The sultanates were subordinated to the Dutch colonial state until 1942 when the Japanese occupied Indonesia. After the outbreak of the Indonesian revolution they belonged to the Dutch-approved quasi-state East Indonesia from 1946 to 1950 when they were incorporated in the unitary Indonesian state. Sultans of Bacan *Muhammad Bakir (c. 1465) on of Jafar Sadik*Zainal Abidin (late 15th century or e ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Saifuddin Of Tidore
Sultan Saifuddin, also known as Golofino (died 2 October 1687) was the eleventh Sultan of Tidore in Maluku islands. Reigning from 1657 to 1687, he left Tidore's old alliance with the Spanish Empire and made treaties with the Dutch East India Company (VOC), which now became hegemonic in Maluku for the next century. Tidore was forced to extirpate the clove trees in its territory and thus ceased to be a spice Sultanate. In spite of this, Saifuddin and his successors were able to preserve a degree of independence due to the trade in products from the Papuan Islands and New Guinea. Early years, exile and comeback Kaicili (prince) Golofino was a son of Sultan Gorontalo of Tidore. Although he had a brother Kaicili Gorian (Goranja) who was his senior, he stands out as the active representative of this branch of the royal family. When his father was murdered by the Spanish authorities in 1639 for treasonous conduct, Golofino tried to be acknowledged, opposing the Spanish candidate Saidi. ...

Poignard
A poniard or ''poignard'' ( Fr.) is a long, lightweight thrusting knife with a continuously tapering, acutely pointed blade, and a cross-guard, historically worn by the upper class, noblemen, or members of the knighthood. Similar in design to a parrying dagger, the poniard emerged during the Middle Ages and was used during the Renaissance in Western Europe, particularly in France, Switzerland, and Italy. The archaic word "spud" in English could refer to a poignard. The armed forces of Safavid Iran (1501–1736) used the poniard; it was considered a weapon ownership of which was especially typical of soldiers who originated from the Caucasus region, particularly Circassians, Georgians, and Armenians. Modern use In modern French, the term ''poignard'' has come to be defined as synonymous with ''dague'', the general term for "dagger", and in English the term ''poniard'' has gradually evolved into a term for any small, slender dagger. In literary usage it may also mean the actua ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

It is part of the North Maluku province of Indonesia, and Sofifi, the capital of the province, is located on the west coast of the island. Halmahera has a land area of ; it is the largest island of Indonesia outside the five main islands. It had a population of 162,728 in 1995; by 2010, it had increased to 449,938 for the island itself (excluding the tip which is considered part of the Joronga Islands, but including Gebe and Ju islands) and 667,161 for the island group (including all of South Halmahera and Tidore, but not Ternate).

Seram Island
Seram (formerly spelled Ceram; also Seran or Serang) is the largest and main island of Maluku province of Indonesia, despite Ambon Island's historical importance. It is located just north of the smaller Ambon Island and a few other adjacent islands, such as Saparua, Haruku, Nusa Laut and the Banda Islands. Geography and geology Seram is traversed by a central mountain range, the highest point of which, Mount Binaiya, is covered with dense rain forests. Its remarkably complex geology is because of its location at the meeting of several tectonic microplates, which have been described as "one of the most tectonically complex areas on Earth". Seram actually falls on its own microplate, which has been twisted around by 80° in the last 8 million years by the relatively faster movement of the Papua microplate. Meanwhile, along with the northward push of the Australian Plate, this has resulted in the uplift that gives north-central Seram peaks of over 3000 m. On the island, there a ...
