      The Diponegoro War

      1825 - 1830

      Prince Diponegoro (1785-1855) led a popular uprising against the Dutch between 1825 and 1830. He is regarded as a national hero, a pious Muslim and a Javanese mystic.

      How did this man who came from a life of privilege in the Yogyakarta court - he was the grandson of Yogyakarta's first sultan - end his life in exile in squalid, hot, prison rooms at Fort Rotterdam in Makassar.

      The Submission of Prince Diponegoro to General de Kock at Magelang 1830 ~ ~~by Nicolaas Pieneman

      Background

      The second Mataram kingdom emerged from Demak, the most powerful early Muslim kingdom on Java. Military conquests during the long reign of Sultan Agung Hanyokrokusumo, from 1613 to 1646, greatly expanded and set in place the lasting historical legacy of Mataram.

      In 1677, King Amangkurat II sought the assistance of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) in reclaiming his throne which had been usurped by his brother.

      Big Mistake - As a consequence he had to make substantial concessions to the Dutch, resulting in seventy five years of political and military conspiracies, chicanery and collusion between various Javanese princes, Chinese entrepreneurs, and the Dutch, who all sought to establish their own trading empires in Java.
