The Kingdom of Sarawak was a state in Borneo established by Sir James Brooke in 1841 by receiving independent
kingdom status from the
Sultanate of Brunei as a
reward for helping fight piracy
and insurgency. In 1888
Charles Anthoni Johnson
Brooke , the successor of James
Brooke, accepted a British
Protectorate, which it
remained until 1946, when the
third ruler Charles Vyner
Brooke ceded his rights to the
United Kingdom.
Sarawak was officially granted independence on 22 July 1963 from United Kingdom, and with Malaya, Sabah,and Singapore, formed federation of Malaysia on 16 september 1963.
