Wengker Majapahit Period

 The reign of Airlangga , Wengker empire never happen peprangan or dispute , otherwise become a safe peaceful area . Kahuripan Airlangga divides into two or Daha and Kediri Jenggala or Panjalu . After the death of Airlangga civil war between the two kingdoms . Unstable situation used Wengker construct new power so until the founding of Majapahit Wengker name still sounds clear even relations between the two kingdoms are good.

The reign of Majapahit , Wengker led by a king named Kudamerta or Wijayarajasa . Nagarakartagama mentioned in the book " Hajj Priya umunggu Wengker the wake hyang Upandra Nurun Narpari Wijayarajasanopamana Parama - ajnottama " . That is to build the kingdom Wengker is Wijayarajasa as the first king . Later in this book also mentioned Kudamerta marry Raden Bhre Dhaha . Raden Kudamerta Wengker domiciled in the name of Parameswara Bhre Pamotan known as Sri Wijayarajasa . The meaning is Goddess Maharajasa Bhre Dhaha sister of Tribhuwana . Means is the son of Raden Wijaya Wijayarajasa .In addition to being the king Wengker , Wijayarajasa is a character that has a big role in Majapahit , among others, one of the 8 figures invited to the appointment time Mahapatih Gajah Mada in 1364 AD , was named a member of the board of Seven King , a member of the board of supreme consideration in 1351 AD , take action firmly against the top mistakes made by Gajah Mada Bubat event and received an award from Tribhuwana Tunggadewi .

Wijayarajasa son named Susumma Goddess or Paduka Sori married to Hayam Wuruk in the year 1357 AD , after prabu Hayam Wuruk failed marriage with a daughter who died at Padjadjaran Bubad events . The marriage was a family wedding because Susumma mother goddess is the sister who is the mother Tribhuwana Tunggadewi Hayam Wuruk .

The days of the Majapahit era Wengker next leadership is Dyah Suryawikrama Girishawardana , he was the son Dyah Kertawijaya .

Located in the south also called Kademangan Wengker , Demangnya named Kethut Suryangalam . Ketut said the changes would see the word Kettu , ie the name of the first king Wengker Kettu Wijaya .

King 's wife has a daughter Majapahit China is the last UB . Arya Damar told the queen that her son would become the first king of Islam in Java . As we know that the first Islamic kingdom in Java is Demak .

At the time of Raden Patah stepping am alive Majapahit empire had begun to collapse due to the resistance of the nobility who had founded the city on the north coast and the support of Islam . This opportunity is used Raden Patah to meet Raden Rahmat or Sunan Ampel . Raden Patah express some thing about Majapahit was weak . Raden Patah Raden Rahmat stay at home to learn a few things after enough given position in Bintoro . Bintoro developed on the basis of Islam . Hearing this the king of Majapahit King Brawijaya lift Raden Patah be Mangkubumi in Bintoro . Thanks to the support of the trustees , Bintoro evolved into a bunch of names first Islamic kingdom of Demak in 1403 Saka or 1481 AD , under the leadership of Raden Patah with Djimbun Panembahan title .

With the emergence of Demak more severely hit by the crisis Majapahit , Brawijaya has been captured by the sebenarnyatidak Girishawardana entitled to the throne of Majapahit . At the time of the last king of the UB , has given power to Raden Patah who would later develop into the kingdom of Demak . It is a different experience Brawijaya V 's son named Raden Katong not have jurisdiction . Until you hear the news that Lawu east there was a headman of Fleas are not willing to face the Majapahit . Katong Raden then told to face the headman to Majapahit . Then Katong Raden in Demak and converted to Islam .

Demat Ki Ageng Fleas are known as Suryangalam or lice . He is still Retainer Majapahit kingdom including relatives then by King Kertabumi or Brawijaya V , he was given the post of Demat .

They always coordinate on what they Hadapu in this struggle . Kyai Ageng Mirah Katong Raden pleased to have a partner because they descendants of Majapahit . The problem is the Katong Raden Kyai Ageng Fleas do not want to face the Majapahit while Kyai Ageng Mirah difficulty in spreading Islam . Having become acquainted with each other and express what is its importance because the same purpose , the three of them then went on to make observations to the southern sea .

Katong Raden party seeks a persuasive approach to the Ki Ageng lice , among others, Kyai Kyai Ageng Ageng Mirah against lice in dialogue in order to Kyai Ageng Fleas mengahdap willing to Majapahit . But Kyai Ageng Fleas refused on the grounds , among others, royal Majaphit which gives the door for the spread of Islam when the religion of the region itself Wengker most Hindu and Buddhist . Kyai Ageng Fleas considers the spread of Islam led precisely Majapahit , Raden Patah of Demak Bintoro appointed him as ruler . Kyai Ageng Mirah explained that the appointment of Raden Patah is not wrong because it is still the son of Brawijaya V. Teteapi Kyai Ageng lice still think it is done Majapahit kingdom that violates the rules themselves . Finally, efforts were made ​​Kyai Ageng Dialogic Mirah failed .

Persuasion of the party who failed to Katong Raden reported to King Brawijaya V , and the steps taken by the UB is sending troops to quell Majapahit Kyai Ageng lice . The army delegation led by Raden Katong . Basically Katong Raden would not hostile to the Wengker remembering Kyai Ageng Fleas against Majapahit so much . But Seloaji advise that the supposed right is Kyai Ageng Fleas by Kyai Ageng lice themselves , while the royal party considers that violate the rules and the King was immediately ordered to put down , so he Katong Raden advised not to hesitate in acting .

Then there was the battle between the army led Majapahit along Katong Raden Kyai Ageng Mirah and Seloaji well as several other figures . The course of the war including the war strategy is carried out . Then in 1468 AD , lice as the capital fell into the hands Wengker Katong Raden and his armies . Kyai Ageng Fleas can be defeated but did not find his body or destroyed at the hill called the Mount rotten then . Kyai Kyai Honggolono the right hand Ageng lice killed in this battle . Katong Raden very touched to see the death and destruction of Kyai Honggolono Ki Ageng Fleas considering they both are the officers who made ​​a large contribution to the Majapahit especially when Wengker recapture that had dominated Kediri . Consolidation in the family Kyai Ageng Fleas also performed , among others, married two daughters namely Kyai Ageng Fleas Niken Sulastri and Niken Gandini , the first son named Kyai Ageng Fleas Surohandoko replaced the father in Kademangan Fleas , Suryongalim be used as village head in Ngampel , Warok Gunoseco become village head The Siman , Waro Tromejo Mount camouflage Slahung .
