章 1220: The New Majapahit Emperor

It had been many years since the war with Japan had taken its toll on the Majapahit population, and during this time, Emperor Suratman had been leading his nation to a new golden age. When Berengar found the Majapahit Empire, they were already headed towards a total collapse. 

But with the influx of trade coming from around the world, and the export of its spices, the Majapahit Empire had become one of the wealthiest states in the world. And while they maintained a rather sizeable army to deter any would be invaders. They did not actively engage in wars of conquest, unlike the realms which Berengar's sons currently ruled over.

However, on this day, an Era truly came to an end. As Darma and his siblings stood by their parents' side as they watched their grandfather, the great Emperor Suratman was lit ablaze on a mighty pyre. The old man had passed away, at the ripe old age of eighty-three, leaving his throne not to any of his sons, but his eldest grand.
