Pakubuwono X vs Titu Cusi Yupanqui

Pakubuwono X ascended the throne of the Surakarta Sunanate, a princely state in the Dutch East Indies. His reign was marked by cooperation with the Dutch colonial authorities, maintaining the traditional power structure under colonial rule.

Pakubuwono X maintained a close relationship with the Dutch colonial government, supporting their policies in Java. His cooperation helped preserve the Sunanate's privileges but also limited his authority, as real power remained with the Dutch.

Pakubuwono X oversaw the construction of the Pura Mangkunegaran palace complex in Surakarta, a major architectural project that blended Javanese and European styles. The palace became a symbol of his reign and Javanese cultural heritage.

Pakubuwono X died after a reign of 46 years, one of the longest in Javanese history. He was succeeded by his son, Pakubuwono XI, who continued the Sunanate's role under Dutch colonial rule until the Japanese occupation.

Titu Cusi Yupanqui succeeded his brother Sayri Tupac as the ruler of the Neo-Inca state in Vilcabamba. He revived resistance against Spanish rule, refusing to accept Spanish authority and maintaining an independent Inca kingdom.

Titu Cusi Yupanqui engaged in negotiations with Spanish envoys, including the viceroy's representatives, seeking a peace treaty. The talks failed due to mutual distrust, and Titu Cusi continued guerrilla warfare against Spanish settlements.

Titu Cusi Yupanqui died suddenly, possibly from illness or poisoning. His death led to the succession of his brother Tupac Amaru, who was later captured and executed by the Spanish, ending the Vilcabamba resistance.
