Bolkiah, Sultan (brunei) : All Data

Sultan Bolkiah was the ruler of the Sultanate of Brunei from 1485 to 1524. During his reign, he led Brunei in several significant conflicts, including the Brunei Civil War (1485-1524) and the invasion of Manila (1500-1501). The Brunei Civil War was a prolonged power struggle between Bolkiah and his half-brother, resulting in the consolidation of Bolkiah's rule. The invasion of Manila, which occurred from 1500 to 1501, saw Bolkiah's forces successfully capture and occupy the city, establishing Brunei's influence in the Philippines. Bolkiah's reign was marked by these military campaigns, which solidified his authority and expanded Brunei's territorial reach.
