Mir Of Tidore
Sultan Mir, or Amiruddin Iskandar Dulkarna'in (c. 1511 ― 1550s) was the third Sultan of Tidore in Maluku Islands. He had a long and troubled reign from 1526 to the 1550s where he tried to counter the hegemonic ambitions of the Portuguese and their Ternate allies. The global rivalries between Spain and Portugal characterized the period, and the two Iberian powers indiscriminately involved the spice sultanates Tidore and Ternate in their power game. Succession to the throne In the 16th century Tidore was the second most important polity in North Maluku after Ternate. The Malukan sultanates generated some wealth through the trade in cloves which attracted merchants from other parts of Asia, and eventually European seafarers. The best cloves supposedly grew in Tidore. The Portuguese, coming from Melaka, established a base in nearby Ternate and, allying with the local elite, made war on Tidore. After a temporary peace agreement in 1526, Sultan al-Mansur was apparently poisoned by a P ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Al-Mansur Of Tidore
Sultan Al-Mansur (c. 1475 - 1526) was the second Sultan of Tidore in Maluku islands, who reigned from at least 1512 until 1526. Certain legends associate him with the beginnings of Tidore's rule over the Papuan Islands and western New Guinea. During his reign the first visits by Portuguese and Spanish seafarers took place, which led to grave political and economic consequences for the societies of eastern Indonesia. Trying to preserve his realm in the face of Western encroachment, he finally fell victim to Portuguese enmity. Early years Al-Mansur was, according to later historical tradition, the son of the first Muslim ruler of Tidore, Ciri Leliatu. He was named after Syekh Mansur, an Arab who persuaded his father to convert to Islam. As he later told Spanish visitors, his father had been killed during a journey to Buru Island, which was normally a dependency of the rivalling Sultanate of Ternate. An early impression of his kingdom, before the onset of European influence, is giv ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Jailolo (town)
Jailolo is a town and former sultanate on Halmahera in Indonesia's Maluku Islands. It is located on the island's west coast approximately 20 km north of Ternate. Jailolo is a small port that serves Halmahera's northwestern coastal villages. Before the arrival of Europeans it was the most important political power on Halmahera. It is thought that the sultanate had a measure of influence and autonomy as a combined Portuguese and Ternatean force overran in it 1551. It was then under the control of the Dutch and Ternateans for two centuries. The Sultanate was re-established in 1798, by the Sultan of Tidore who had expelled the Dutch from his island and proclaimed a noble from Makian as Sultan of Jailolo. The Dutch forced the aristocracy into exile in 1832. Baba Hassan attempted a revolt in 1876, but his rebellion was easily put down by steam-powered Dutch warships. In 1914, a revolt over taxation saw Jailoloans kill the colonial district officer, and there was a revolt on the is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Dayal Of Ternate
Dayal also known as Hidayatullah (c. 1515 – December 1536) was the fourth Sultan of Ternate in Maluku. He had a short and largely nominal reign between 1529 and 1533 before fleeing Ternate due to Portuguese pressure. He later tried to create an anti-Portuguese alliance among the kings in North Maluku, but was mortally wounded in battle against the Europeans. Hostage with the Portuguese Dayal was the son of Sultan Bayan Sirrullah. His mother was a daughter of Sultan al-Mansur of Tidore. When his older full brother Boheyat passed away in 1529, Dayal was put on the throne. He was still adolescent, and his older half-brother Kaicili Darwis acted as regent. His time was characterized by increasing conflicts between the Ternatans and the Portuguese who kept a fot on the island and interfered indiscriminately in Ternatan politics. Like his brother before him, Dayal was kept as hostage in the fortress. Death of the regent The Portuguese captain Jorge de Meneses was known to be a r ...

Nyaicili Boki Raja
Nyaicili Boki Raja (died after 1556) was a Queen of Ternate in Maluku Islands who served as regent of the kingdom in 1545-1546. She was later baptized by the Catholic missionary Francis Xavier and took the name Dona Isabel. Being the daughter, wife, sister and mother of kings, she had a potentially bridge-building function between the competing Malukan spice Sultanates Ternate and Tidore, but was repeatedly sidelined by the brutal policy of early European colonialism in Maluku. Dynastic position Her original name is not known, since Nyaicili Boki Raja (Naychile Puka Raga) is a title meaning "Junior Lady Royal Princess". She was a daughter of Sultan al-Mansur of Tidore (d. 1526) and married Sultan Bayan Sirrullah of Ternate some time prior to 1518. Ideas about her position in the Ternate dynasty differ among historians. Paramita R. Abdurrachman believes that she was the mother of three sons who became Sultans of Ternate in turn: Boheyat (r. 1521-1529), Dayal (r. 1529-1533) and ...
