Majapahit's Bhre Wirabhumi and the Paregreg Civil War

In 1404, a succession dispute between two princes — Bhre Wirabhumi and Bhre Kertabhumi — plunged the Majapahit Empire into a devastating civil war called the Paregreg. This episode traces the origins of the conflict, the decisive battle at Trowulan, and the aftermath that left Java fractured and vulnerable. We rely on the Pararaton and Babad Tanah Jawi manuscripts to reconstruct the events, and explore how the war triggered the rise of the Wali Songo, the spread of Islam, and the eventual collapse of Majapahit. We also discuss the mysterious Bhre Wirabhumi's flight to Mount Lawu and the legend of his lost fleet. #Majapahit #Paregreg #BhreWirabhumi #BhreKertabhumi #Pararaton #BabadTanahJawi #WaliSongo #Trowulan #MountLawu #JavaneseHistory #CivilWar #14thCentury #15thCentury #Nusantara #SoutheastAsia #HinduBuddhist #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
