In earlier times, namely in the 14th century precisely in 1293, in Indonesia emerged an empire. a kingdom that would later become the largest empire in the Nusantara, this is the Majapahit kingdom. central government of this kingdom are in east Java, Indonesia. Trowulan is the name of the capital of this kingdom.

Majapahit was founded by Raden Wijaya, Raden wijaya was formerly the son of the King Kartanegara, King of the Singosari Kingdom  who died because of an attack made ​​by the Kingdom of Kadiri.  Raden wijaya  and his followers were later cleared and made ​​the forest called the Tarik forest  into a village called Trowulan, and in this village of Majapahit was established.

Establishment of the kingdom of Majapahit was due Raden wijaya ingenuity and a little help from the Kublai Khan’s soldiers who came from china / mongolian. in fact,  Kublai Khan’s soldiers  came to Java is to destroy the kingdom  of Singosari, but they did not know that Singosari been destroyed by the attack of the Kingdom of  kediri. Raden wijaya then worked with Kublai Khan to invade the kingdom of Kadiri, Raden Wijaya goal is to avenge the death-in-law.
because of superior numbers of troops, Raden Wijaya who cooperate with the forces of Kublai Khan, destroying Kediri. Jayakatwang king was killed, revenge Raden Wijaya settled. next, because he wanted the soldiers of Kublai Khan went from the  Java island, Raden Wijaya then turned suddenly launched an attack to Kublai Khan's soldiers. warrior  of Kublai Khan finally driven away from Java.

majapahit life, conflict, and triumph.

After Raden wijaya officially appointed as the King, on the 10th of november 1293 and got its official name is Katarajasa jawardhana, conflicts began to emerge. The first revolt is the Ranggalawe revolt , which is actually a confidant of King. besides Ranggalawe, Sora, and Nambi also did the revolt. the conspiracy behind this rebellion is Halayuda, a royal duke. The aim is for sure, that is to overthrow the King and he got the highest authority in the government. but all efforts were made Halayuda nothing works. then Halayuda even arrested, as was found guilty and sentenced to death.

After Raden Wijaya died in 1309, handed the crown to his son, Jayanegara. However, a physician named Tanca kill him. government then given to her stepmother, Gayati rajapatni. however, Gayati not want to hold the government, and prefer to become nuns. Gayati pointing daughter, Tribhuwana Wijayatunggadewi to become queen and government control.

In 1336, Gadjah Mada , was appointed governor by Tribhuwana. Gadjah Mada future will be a great governor, and brought into the kingdom of Majapahit in the Nusantara's largest and feared.  at the time of inauguration, Gadjah Mada vows. a very famous oath was sworn palapa. namely, the oath to widen the Majapahit territory, and made ​​the kingdom of Majapahit as the largest.

After Tribhuwana, the next King of Majapahit was Hayam Wuruk (son of Tribhuwana). Hayam Wuruk ruled between the years 1350-1389. during the reign of Hayam Wuruk, Majapahit gain peak. magnitude of the Majapahit power is controlled throughout the Nusantara, that now is Sumatara, Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sulawesi, Nusa tenggara island, Maluku, Papua, Singapore, and parts of the Philippines. Majapahit also established a relationship with another empire, just as Campa, Siam, Burma, Vietnam, China, and Cambodia.

Declining prestige of Gadjah Mada

Hayam Wuruk want to marry Citaresmi Pitaloka, princess of Sunda. this is due to forge alliances and diplomacy. then the king's entourage went to accompany his daughter to marry Hayam Wuruk. but Gadjah Mada had another thought, he thinks that this is an opportunity to make a submission to Sunda kingdom of Majapahit. then under the command of Gadjah Mada, Majapahit soldiers attacked the king's entourage Sunda. This battle occurred in the field Bubat. so that the event is called, Bubat war. almost all members of the entourage brutally murdered. Citaresmi are disappointed, then decided to commit suicide. because of this cruel event dimmed the prestige of Gadjah Mada.

The introduction of Islam in Java and the destruction of Majapahit.

Gadjah Mada died in 1377. while Hayam Wuruk died in 1389. Majapahit decline due to conflict struggle for the throne. conflict occurs because the struggle between Prince Wikramawardhana  against Wirabhumi. Wikramawardhana was the husband of the princess crown, Kusumawardhani who actually still have blood ties. while Wirabhumi was the son of a concubine, who also has the right to the throne.

The next revolt occurred again in Majapahit. was conducted by the prince kertabhumi, then Kertabhumi appointed himself as the King of Majapahit. when Singhawikramawardhana became king, he moved to the inland empire center Daha (the former royal capital of Karachi). son of Singhawikramawardhana, Ranawijaya then beat kertabhumi and in control of Majapahit.

Red and green society : the secret society of china


in Japan, the yakuza, or mafia associations are greatly feared. even so if we do not disturb them we would not be harmed by them. they are respectable mafia groups. in china there is also a kind of secret society, which is the red and green society. although their names are less well known than the yakuza, but in China this association is very large and famous. even today they have about 6 million members and 100,000 professional assassins. This is a fantastic number considering this is a secret society.

History of the emergence of red and green society.

in 1644, the manchu successfully invaded and overthrew the dynasty ming. after that set up the manchu qing dynasty, the dynasty was characterized by a half-bald hair (like in the movies wong fei hung).  ming dynasty who was defeated by the manchu then withdrew and formed an underground society. purpose of the establishment of this association is to rebel and overthrow the Qing dynasty, and recover the ming dynasty.

The green & red touted society joined in support of a bloody uprising in 1898, boxer rebellion. boxer rebellion carried out by a kung fu expert to drive out foreign imperialism from china. This rebellion occurred during the 3 years, and cost the lives of nearly 20,000 foreigners and Chinese Christians were massacred.

Due to the support of the Japanese empire, the red & green society finally succeeded in overthrowing the Qing dynasty in 1911. then lifted Dr. sun yat sen who is also a member of this group became the first president of China. Chiang kai shek, the founder of Taiwan has also been mentioned comes from this association. 

Red & green society was once two distinct groups. the red gang, and  green gang. which later united into red and green society and became a feared criminal organizations, especially in Shang hai. Their main business is the opium trade, and smuggling. 

Relationship between red and green society, imperial Japan, and the Yakuza.

Becaused when they overthrew the qing dynasty assisted many Japanese empire, they have strong linkages with the yakuza. why is that? because the Japanese imperial family is very close to the yakuza. Japanese imperial family is actually of Korean invaders who came to Japan in the 6th century. These invaders have difficulty when conquering the local tribes called the Jomon. then they ask for help on a tribe in asia who like to fight. This interest is none other than the ancestral yakuza.

Relationship between the yakuza with red & green society still continues today, and in fact most of the senior leaders of red & green are the Japanese society, not china.  This association can not be directly referred to the evil society, because 2/3 of their members are intellectuals just as university professors, researchers, and government bureaucrats. They also have a handbook full of rules and instructions as to help the weak, fight injustice, and members help each other mutually. as I said in the beginning was, which is important we do not disturb them.

Lately a lot of news circulating that these organizations, red & green society, and the yakuza, will fight the illuminati who reportedly will reduce the amount of earth's population, in particular reducing the asia. many circulate news, when Benjamin fullford (former bureau chief of Forbes magazine asia pacific region) held a lecture in Tokyo about the illuminati, a member of this group approached him and asked for a list of members of the illuminati. whether true or not list the name, just Fullford and yakuza who knows.

Some countries are still using the system of government monarchy / empire in the 20th century.
