For those not familiar with the history of Java, the original Muslim kingdom of Mataram which peaked with Sultan Agung during the early part of the 17th Century eventually degenerated because of sibling rivalries and petty jealousies; brothers pitted against brothers, uncles against nephews, to gain control of a kingdom which was rapidly weakening and quickly fell under the control of the colonial Dutch rule. It eventually split into two, then three, then four. Today, the remnants of those four kingdoms are still in evidence: the Kasunanan of Solo, Kasultanan of Jogya, Pura Mangkunegaran, and Pura Paku Alaman. Each descendant house to the day still claims legitimacy as the rightful heir to that long-ago kingdom, though no one pay too much attention to them, except for those who are involved.
