History
They were an agnatic line which rose after the Tondo War.[1] They intermarried with the Tondo rajahs. However a huge split began after Prince Ache realized that his cousin, who was ruler of Tondo, was "slyly" and started a conflict spanning until the 1520s.
Ultimately they were defeated by the Spanish in the Battle of Manila in 1571.[2]
