Majapahit's Last Voyage: The Lost Fleet of Bhre Wirabhumi
from Majapahit: The Empire That Once Ruled Indonesia — Fexingo History · host Fexingo
After the Paregreg civil war, Majapahit's eastern prince Bhre Wirabhumi fled Trowulan with a fleet of jong. This episode traces the legend of his escape, the Ming records of a 'shipwrecked Javanese prince' in Guangzhou, and the archaeological clues at Candi Sukuh and Gunung Lawu. Did Wirabhumi reach China? Or did his fleet vanish into the Indian Ocean? We follow the evidence from the Pararaton and Ming Shilu to modern debris fields off Sumatra, exploring how Majapahit's naval power collapsed after the civil war and what really happened to the prince who nearly became emperor. #Majapahit #BhreWirabhumi #Paregreg #JavaneseHistory #IndonesianHistory #Jong #NavalHistory #CandiSukuh #MingShilu #Pararaton #Trowulan #CivilWar #LostFleet #Exile #GunungLawu #AncientShips #SoutheastAsia #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
