The royal house were of noble origin, holding the hereditary position of ''Bendahara'' (the highest rank in Malay nobility) in the courts of Singapura, Melaka and Old Johor since at least from the end of the 13th century.

Family Tree Of Kedah Monarchs
Genealogies of Kedah Rulers can be found in two traditional Malay texts, the first one being ''Hikayat Merong Mahawangsa'', a chronicle written in the late 16th century, and the other is ''Al-Tarikh Salasilah Kedah'' ('genealogies of Kedah'), a royal-sanctioned history published in 1928. The records however do not provide consistent genealogies for the early Rulers of Kedah. According to the ''Hikayat'', Kedah's first Ruler was Merong Mahawangsa. In the ''Salasilah'', it is stated that the first Kedah Ruler was Derbar Raja I who originated from Persia in the 9th century CE. Nevertheless, the ''Hikayat'' and ''Salasilah'' do share some similarities, the most important is that both texts state that the first converted Ruler to Islam took the name Sultan Muzaffar Shah, although the original name of the Ruler is different. ''Hikayat'' mentions that Raja Phra Ong Mahawangsa was the first to convert to Islam, while in the ''Salasilah'', it is stated it was Derbar Raja II. The following fa ...

Family Tree Of Perlis Monarchs
Perlis was part of Kedah Sultanate from at least the mid-16th century. Its boundaries were first demarcated in 1770, when Kedah's Sultan, Muhammad Jiwa II, presented the territory to his younger son, the then Tunku Dhiauddin. When Tunku Dhiauddin ascended the Kedah throne, he in turn presented Arau to his son in law Syed Harun Jamalullail, who assumed the title of Penghulu ('chief') of Arau. In 1825, Syed Harun died and his son Syed Hussein succeeded him as Penghulu of Arau. He assumed office during a period of turmoil when Kedah, including Perlis was invaded by Siam, and later administered by the Siamese governor of Ligor.

Family Tree Of Selangor Monarchs
Before the emergence of Selangor as a political entity, ancient settlements existed along all the major rivers between Bernam and Lukut rivers, with two important settlements Klang and Jeram, were governed by princes and chieftains appointed by Melaka and later Johor. At the end of the 17th century, Bugis emigrants began establishing settlements in Selangor. A power struggle in Johor in the early 18th century opened the door for Bugis ascendancy, securing their position by creating the position of Yamtuan Muda in Johor. As their influence expanded, the Selangor region became their stronghold, governed by a succession of Bugis chiefs. The death of the second Yamtuan Muda, Daeng Chelak in 1745, brought about the power struggle within their own ranks. As his son, Raja Lumu was deemed too young to succeed, the title was passed to his cousin Daeng Kemboja. Raja Lumu was instead given control of Selangor with the assistance of a ''Suliwatang'' ('Regent'). By the time Raja Lumu came of age, ...
