Martyred Lakandula

On May 1571, Lakandula would refuse the Spanish and killed many of the men of Legaspi, the people of Selurong would temporarily kick the Spanish away from Selurong but it will spell the end for the Bruneian hold to the Bruneian held Selurong when the Spanish came back.

Rajah Matanda is also against the Spanish since the Spanish had kidnapped him while he was returning from Borneo and the kidnapping had given the Spanish knowledge of them and their culture.

In the latter part of 1571 the Spanish led by Salcedo and his grandfather, Miguel Lopez would battle against Lakandula who expelled them and the Spanish would defeat Lakandula and Sulayman, effectively annexing the South of Selurong, Lakandula and Sulayman would flee to North of Selurong which would be led by their former enemies who they have a marriage peace pact and they would try to support them in their fight.

Lakandula, Matanda, and Sulayman would try to fight against the Spanish and led a revolt in 1573 but they would end up dead and captured by the Spanish, the enemies of Bruneians in the North would now be kept as buffers with the Japanese as the Spanish realized that they are useful as their own buffers with the Japanese.

The enemies of the Bruneians would have the Wako and Limahong as buffers with the Spanish but the Spanish would also be able to defeat Wako and Limahong.

The Conquest of the lands of the enemies of the Bruneians in the North would not be considered as they would be useful as a buffer to the Militaristic Japanese in the North who would have been more hostile with them if the Spanish conquered their lands and another issue is that the land was a part of Majapahit which had ties with Manuel I prior to Magellan expedition, so the Spanish will largely ignore them.

Imjin Wars
The Japanese would win against the Koreans and Ming on the Imjin wars under Hideyoshi in 1598, the Japanese would satellite Korea and maintain trading grounds and the pirates in the Kingdom of Selurong which would remain its Muslim Character, the Ming would expel Portuguese and Spanish traders from China in 1600 after their defeat in Imjin and the Ming would prefer the Dutch over the Portuguese and Spanish traders which would push them to Nagasaki, the town of Macao would be destroyed by the Ming Dynasty, compared to the Chinese, the Japanese were confident that the Chinese and Portuguese would do nothing wrong that they would remain in Nagasaki.
The expulsion of the Portuguese and Spanish from China would mean that Macao would now be a Dutch controlled Chinese port which would be accessible to the future colony of Formosa.

Start of Philip III’s reign
In 1598, Philip II would die and would have inherited the Portuguese Kingdom from Sebastian and Henry of Portugal, he was happy that the Japanese trade and Chinese trade were blooming he did not know that the Chinese who have lost the Imjin wars would have been expelled.

China under the Ming Dynasty would trust the Dutch over the Spanish and expelled Spanish and Portuguese missionaries due to them helping the Japanese and the Ming Dynasty will be isolationist since this point.[1]

The loss of the Chinese trade was the reality that Philip III would be able to see and experience, this was humiliating and the comfortable Japanese under Oda and Tokugawa would hand out Nagasaki to the Spanish which would be a detriment to the Japanese in the future due to the gold and drugs that the Spanish and other Europeans would later give to them, the Japanese economy would be susceptible to inflation that the Spanish gold and silver from the new world.



1. The Chinese would be hostile and isolationist like the OTL Japanese

Wukou and Bruneians
In 1580, a Wukou-Selurong conspiracy would start to plan the invasion of the south of Selurong as it was revealed how it was planned in the end of the rebellion, they helped Agustin de Legaspi reclaim the Southern half of Selurong and all of the Spanish Philippines, however, the Sultanate of Selurong wanted the Southern half of Selurong to themselves.
On 1587 a Wukou-Selurong army would conquer the Philippines colony, however, it would be later sabotaged when the troops shown that one of the sides of the troops wanted to conquer just the Southern half of Selurong for themselves which led to that part of the troops deserting after their motivation was revealed which would cause them to be defeated by the Spanish solidifying the Spanish rule in the Southern half of Selurong.

This is the ITTL version of the Tondo Conspiracy and the Battle of Cagayan events.

Cease fire in Selurong’s border
The legendary king or the unknown founder of the Sultanate of Selurong would finally create a peace treaty with the Spanish in order to avoid skirmishes along the border which would finally mean that the lands that Bolkiah conquests in the 15th century would remain under the Spanish and they would temporarily not try to claim those lands allowing them to recover from their issues with the Bruneians and the Spanish would give up the lands that they colonized in Samtoy to them, on the other hand, it also firmly establishes them as a buffer with the Japanese which would allow the Spanish to deliver Silver and Gold to Japan via Nagasaki which would enrich the Japanese but had a negative effect on their own economy.


On 1600, the Sultanate of Selurong would shift its capital to Caboloan which is north near the former Samtoy colony of the Spanish, which was part of the Philippines colony.[1]



The Mexican Silver would attract the Tokugawa and the Spanish and Portuguese would also protect the Tokugawa against the other nobility as well.



The Spanish would be in peace with the Sultanate of Selurong in the north due to them being buffers to the Japanese in the North but the Kingdom of Gowa in the South would not be too lucky in its prospects as the Spanish and the Portuguese would have circled them.



1. The ruler of Caboloan is a loyal idiot so he will give up his lands ITTL.

Portuguese restoration war
The Portuguese restoration war, was the war between Portugal and Spain that began with the Portuguese revolution of 1640 and ended with the Treaty of Lisbon in 1668, bringing a formal end to the Iberian Union. The period from 1640 to 1668 was marked by periodic skirmishes between Portugal and Spain, as well as short episordes of more serious warfare, much of it commissioned by the Spanish and Portuguese entanglements with non-Iberian powers. Spain was involved in the 30 years war until 1648 and the Franco-Spanish war until 1659, while Portugal was involved in the Dutch-Portuguese war until 1663.
During this time Selurong would try to occupy the Spanish ruled Selurong in which the Spanish would defeat them.
In the 17th century and afterwards this period of sporadic conflict was simply known as the Acclamation war. The war established the House of Braganza as the Portugal’s new ruling dynasty replacing the Habsburgs who have usurped the Portuguese crown since the 1581 succession crisis.

Treaty of Lisbon 1668
The Spanish Habsburgs recognised the legitimacy of the Braganza dynasty in Portugal. Infanta Catarina, Duchess of Braganza (1540–1614), the former Duchess of Braganza and grandmother of João IV of Portugal, was retroactively acknowledged as a legitimate heir to the throne.
Portuguese sovereignty over its colonial possessions was reconfirmed except for the African exclave of Ceuta, a city that did not recognise the House of Braganza as the new ruling dynasty.
Agreements on the exchange of prisoners, reparations and the restoration of commercial relations were reached.
Portugal ceded Ceuta to Spain. Seven years earlier, the nearby city of Tangiers had been awarded to King Charles II of England as part of the dowry of Catherine of Braganza, as had been stipulated in the Treaty of Lisbon of 1661.
