Kingdom of Sulu - Kingdom of Sulu

Japanese: スールー王国 - スールーおうこく
Kingdom of Sulu - Kingdom of Sulu
An Islamic kingdom formed in the Sulu Archipelago in the southern Philippines. An Islamic community of foreign merchants had been established on Jolo Island, the center of the Sulu Archipelago, from around the end of the 13th century, but it was not until the mid-15th century that Islam spread to the island's indigenous people. Around this time, Abu Bakr, an Arab who came from Sumatra, converted the inhabitants of the island's interior as well, and established the sultanate over the entire island of Jolo. The control of the Jolo Sultanate eventually extended to the entire Sulu Archipelago. In 1645, the Sultanate intervened in a civil war in the Kingdom of Brunei in Borneo, and gained sovereignty over the northern part of the island.

フィリピン南部のスールー諸島に形成されたイスラム王国。スールー諸島の中心地,ホロ島では13世紀末ごろから外来商人のイスラム・コミュニティが形成されていたが,島の原住民にイスラムが普及したのは,15世紀中ごろのことであった。このころスマトラ島から渡来したアラブ人アブー・バクルが島の内陸部住民をも改宗させて,ホロ島全体にスルタン制度を樹立した。ホロのスルタンの支配力はやがてスールー諸島全域に拡大した。1645年にはボルネオのブルネイ王国の内紛に介入して,同島北部の領有権をも獲得した。
