The land of the Ricewine - An Alternate History of the Philippines
The area of Faru where Jayadewa established his state
A Pelayo in the Philippines
On 1500, the Javanese grandsons of Dayang Sasaban, relatives of Girindrawardhana claimed pieces of the former Tondo Confederacy such as Namayan and Kumintang and some principalities and warring against their Bruneian overlords but when will this end, will the Kingdom regain its independence in the future.
On the early part of 1500’s a son of Girindrawardhana of Majapahit would go to the Tondo confederacy and rallied the other descendants of Dayang Sasaban, he introduced himself as Jayadewa.
Jayadewa proclaimed himself the rightful King of the Tagalogs and established a state on the Northeastern Part of Saludang in the area of Faru, Irraya and Laoag where the exiles from Tondo and Majapahit migrated causing the already Javanese influenced language of Faru[1] in this area to become an mix between Javanese and Northern Philippine, the new state established by Jayadewa, Saludang would attract Javanese refugees and the people of the Kingdom of Tondo who are against the Bornean rule, the rulers of Namayan and Kumintang would flee to in order to find support from Jayadewa, this started the Balinese and Javanese migrating to Saludang, the other reason for the migration to Saludang is that Saludang’s mountains have a lot of gold and for that reason, the new state is also known as Gintu.
1. the OTL name of Faru is Aparri, the language mentioned is OTL Ibanag.
Note: Rather than Infidels being called as Igorot, the Infidels in Luzon that are subjects of the state established by Jayadewa are called as Tagalogs..
