Hayam Wuruk

Japanese: ハヤム･ウルク（英語表記）Hayam Wuruk

1334‐89
The fourth king of the Majapahit dynasty in Java, Indonesia. Reigned 1350-89. His real name was Rajasanagara, but he was known by the nickname "Young Rooster." He succeeded the throne after the death of his mother, Tribhuwana, the third queen, and assisted by Gajah Mada, the most famous prime minister since his predecessor, to pacify the country and expand his territory and sphere of influence beyond Java. Shortly after ascending to the throne, he briefly conquered the kingdom of Padjajaran in western Java, but ultimately failed and turned his attention to other regions.
