Correction at 1:45 the Johor Sultanate was based in the far South of the Malay peninsula and not Sumatra. Thank you for those that pointed this out :) I misread one of the reference maps ;( Contemporary Aceh Sultanate is shown in highlighted area NOTE 1 Some people think it was actually a Malay Tiger that the prince saw while hunting...because he was unfamiliar with both he was told it was a lion. Or maybe an extinct type of lion (like middle eastern lion) that has not been around for a long time. ....or he just made it up...and thought lion city sounds cool

The Sultanate of Johor was founded and governed from the Riau Islands (even further south of Singapore) after the initial collapse of Malacca, only returning to the peninsula after the Dutch arrived to counterbalance Portuguese influence. Aceh was one of their major rivals in this period. Also worthwhile mentioning that the earlier generations of Chinese immigrants predated Raffles, settling in both Old Temasek and especially Malacca (following Zheng He's tribute missions and the marriage of a Chinese princess to the Malacca Sultan).

Well, a tributary state ain't exactly China's land. Just as Huns extorting Eastern Roman Empire, doesn't mean that they were subjects to the Huns, or how Alaric deciding whose the Emperor of Rome meant it's Visigothic lands. But I guess that depends on how one defines sovereignty over these lands. Is it based on allegiance, influence, or the level of autonomy?

He didn't have much choice. The current Sultan of Johor was a descendant of the Temenggung in Johor. His ancestor caused a conflict with the actual Johor sultan and go as far as gaining reputation amongst europeans without the sultan's permission. That way, he was able to take Johor from the Sultan by making the British buy SIngapore from him or perish.

Md IrfanShah Bin Somsol back then, sultans had limited power (Islamic religion & Malay customary) the rest under Residency/Governor system. And yet there is a threat of the throne. That was the transfer of executive power from feudalism to British indirect rule and to the constitutional monarchy. In contrast; Singapore is republic, so royal matter is a obsolete. But people still keep telling about Sang Nila Utama, the story of Hang Nadim(Singapore under attack of the swordfish). Sultan of Singapore? Vanish

Correction.. Portugese just conqured the city of Melaka, not the whole empire.. thats why after the invasion & after Sultan of Melaka retreat, they even form 3 others state Sultanate in Peninsular (Johor, Perak & Selangor). & u still wonder why Portugese cannot expand their power outside Melaka.. bcoz they greatly surrounded by Malay Sultanate States.

You know what would help India tremendously? Singapore is a secular nation, religion is not a big deal. India needs to "pull back" a bit on Hinduism if India is going to join the modern world. This is what I would recommend: 1. Teach sciences in schools. 2. Separate Temple from State. 3. Tear down unauthorized shrines. 4. Get the animals OFF the streets and into zoos or sanctuary's. 5. Fence off the Ganges river so it can flush itself out and become a clean river again. 6. Get the "holy frauds" off the streets and into useful labor and TAX them at a rate of 99% if they do want to carry on public shows.

Malay newcomers? Mate, they have been living there for centuries. A quick look into modern Malay genetics will reveal that they are descendants of Deutero-Malay and Proto-Malay people, the latter settling in coastal areas of the Malay Peninsula around 2500 years ago. Closer to 0 AD, there was a rise in Indianized kingdoms in maritime Southeast Asia but that doesn't mean there weren't people living there prior. The people living there had always spoken either Austroasiatic (Aslian) or Austronesian (Malay, Javanese, Buginese, Dayak, Iban etc) languages. Singapore has always been a part of the whole archipelago (it's old name was Pulau Ujong which means 'island at the end' in Malay) and migration has always happened between Austronesian groups (known for their seafaring prowess) in the region from the time they first settled up till colonial era, where colonial powers start enforcing borders that would define the division between countries in the region today.

The strategic position itself is important but not all, it only explains part of the incomes, but not how the country is managed. The Suez channel is placed in Egypt for example and it isnt a good example of a country. Singapore has a geostrategic position thats all, the same way other countries have massive reserves of natural resources or other advantages but only some are capable of such development

Well.. Basically the region was in a political mess which disrupted trade..It started with 3 factions fought for supremacy. Aceh, Malacca and the Portuguese.. The Dutch and the Chinese also took sides in the conflict.. Siam watched cautiously at the sidelines looking to swoop in any spoils.. It was not until the Anglo-Dutch treaty was signed, that stability and trade returned which Singapore benefitted from. But by this time the original 3 factions are themselves depleted and were supplanted by the new colonial powers.

It is most probably a Malayan tiger since Singapore is located at south of Peninsular Malaysia. The founder are from maritime southeast asia which mainly consist of island state/country and highly influenced by Hinduism. Big cat mainly exists on mainland. So, the founder are most probably never seen a big cat before and decided that the big cat he saw was a lion based on Hinduism records. Hinduism which is from India, have records/story of lion since India have lion which is called Asiatic Lion. Elephant and rhino are not the only African animal that have Asian cousins. Even if he seen a big cat before which is most probably a tiger, he might think it is cooler to said it is a lion since Hinduism is in trends during those time.
