Selaparang

Selaparang was a Sasak kingdom on Lombok, with its court in the east of the island. Its early Hindu-influenced phase was known as Hindu Selaparang.

Islam spread among the Sasak from the fifteenth century. Under Prabu Rangkesari the kingdom reached its height, repelling Gelgel's Balinese fleets in 1616 and 1624. It resisted Dutch attacks in 1667 and 1668 but lost western Sumbawa. Around 1692 a noble turned against the king and a Karangasem expedition conquered Selaparang; from 1740 Balinese lords ruled its lands.
