Iskandar Muda: Aceh's Golden Age and the Invasion of the Malay Peninsula
In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the reign of Sultan Iskandar Muda, the greatest ruler of the Aceh Sultanate, whose early 17th-century campaigns reshaped the Malay Peninsula. They dive into his 1613 conquest of Pahang, the capture of its sultan, and the naval power that challenged the Portuguese in the Strait of Malacca. The conversation also covers Aceh's control of the pepper trade, the rivalry with Johor, and the later arrival of the Dutch East India Company. A forgotten chapter of Southeast Asian history, this episode reveals how Aceh briefly became the dominant maritime power in the region, before internal strife and European colonialism brought its golden age to an end.
