Originally serving the Srivijaya kingdom, the loyal navy followed the fleeing Srivijaya king and helped him establish the Malacca Sultanate. Led by the legendary admiral Hang Tuah, the skilled navy proved the sultanate's power to the Majapahit kingdom and ensured the sultanate's dominance for over 100 years through their loyalty, earning them the respected title of Seri Bija Diraja.
