Third Javanese War of Succession
The Third Javanese War of Succession was fought from 1749 to 1757 in the Mataram Sultanate of Java between Pakubuwono III, supported by the Dutch East India Company, and the rebel princes Mangkubumi and Raden Mas Said. The Treaty of Giyanti (1755) divided Mataram between Surakarta and the new Sultanate of Yogyakarta under Mangkubumi, and the Treaty of Salatiga (1757) created the Mangkunegaran.
