Jayavarman VII

Japanese: ジャヤバルマン[7世](英語表記)Jayavarman VII
Jayavarman VII
1125-1218 The last king of the Angkor Dynasty in Cambodia. Reigned from 1181 to 1218. Son of the Buddhist Dharanindravarman II. As his posthumous name Mahaparamasougata (meaning "the great supreme Buddhist") suggests, he was a devout Buddhist. He reunited the country, which had been in turmoil due to civil war, usurpation, and an invasion by Champa to the east (1177), and ascended to the throne in 1181. In 1190, he defeated his arch enemy Champa, and annexed the country to Cambodia in 1203. He then conquered neighboring countries, sweeping from the Vientiane area of ​​Laos in the north to the northern Malay Peninsula in the south and up the Menam River basin in the west, making the central part of the Indochina Peninsula his sphere of influence.
