Shahab ud-Din
The Sultan responded that he was aware of the cession, intended to
honor it, and wished to establish intensive commercial relations with the
Spaniards.
A huge military base known as Fort Pillar was built, and thus provoked the
Sultanate of Sulu.
The Real Fuerte de Nuestra Señora del Pilar de Zaragoza (Royal Fort of
Our Lady of the Pillar of Saragossa), also Fort Pillar, is a 17th-century
military defense fortress built by the Spanish colonial government in
Zamboanga City, Philippines.
Sultan Badar ud-Din - was the seventeenth sultan of Sulu, in the present-
day Philippines. Badar ud-Din took over the rule of the Sulu and Tawi-tawi
islands, Mindanao, and northern Borneo. Local sources portrayed him as
“a champion of land and sea”.
Finally, the Sultanates of Sulu and Maguindanao agreed to field 104 paraws with a
combined force of 3,000 warriors to launch a new offensive on Zamboanga at the end of
December 1720.
1730 - Sultan Badar ud-Din had difficulties with Datu Sabdula, a nephew aspiring to
the throne.
1733 - Sultan Badar ud-Din sent an ambassador to China.

The peace treaty deteriorated when Sultan Badar-uddin attempted to capture
Zamboanga in December 6, 1734 while some Sulu warriors attacked Taytay in
northern Palawan.

In response, the Spaniards invaded Jolo in 1735 and drove out the sultanate
court for second time, which then transferred to Dungun, Tawi-Tawi. The war
came to stop when the two powers signed another peace treaty in February 1,
1737.
1736 – Sultan Hamza had to ask for the Spaniard’s aid to be able to resist.
1737 – Another peace treaty was signed.
While the power of the Sulu sultanate and Maguindanao approached a steady
decline, the military power of the Spaniards grew faster when the steam boat
was introduced to the Spanish naval force. The Muslim fleets were no longer a
match with the Spanish modern fleets. The Spaniards had already foreseen a
major invasion when the right time comes.They assured themselves that the final
conquest of Mindanao and Sulu is just a matter of time.
In this phase of the war:
