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 ...

Sultan Of Ternate
This is a list of rulers of Maluku from proto-historical times until the present. The four sultanates of Ternate, Tidore, Sultanate of Jailolo, Jailolo and Bacan Islands, 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 West Papua (region), Papua, while Jailolo and Bacan merely had local significance. They fell under Portugal, Portuguese or Spain, Spanish influence in the sixteenth century, superseded by Netherlands, Dutch impact in the seventeenth century.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.

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 ...

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 ...
