>Majapahit
Moluccas showed up and started a pirate empire of Sorts
>Khmers
Double teamed by Thailand and Vietnam.
>Cham
Ded by 1400's. Due to Vietnamese State doing unto others what China did to them.
By 1500's, the new kids on the block was Burma (well, not really that new), Thailand, Vietnam, Moluccas, and the Bruneian Empire.

majapahit converted to islam. king brawijaya was killed by his muslim son, raden patah. change name to demak. their remnants still survive as 4 sultanates of java.
in a way the khmers actually survive, their last king ponhea yat move the capital to phonm penh and rename their kingdom cambodia.
cham converted to islam. their last leader bo tri tri offered vassalage to vietnam, their people are now minority in vietnam and cambodia. aceh people in indonesia is said to be come from cham.
islam got you rekt desu, all the kingdoms become kinda weak after they convert.

molucca was irrelevant desu, they're a good spice producer but they're basically jungle kingdom, they don't even have stone buiding for god sake

The Portugese, then the Spanish.

not related. thats 16th century onward. portuguese rekt some irrelevant muslim states around malaya but thats it.
spain can colonise philippine easily because there's no strong kingdom there unlike indochina and indo has.
>>389850
>Moluccan pirate
Never far from their islands. Maybe Bugis, but they resort to piracy later.

>King Brawijaya killed by his muslim son
Depends on what you read. Raden Patah only retake majapahit from Kediri usurper, this was proven by stone inscription that celebrate Kediri conquest of Majapahit.
>their remnants survive as 4 sultanates of Java
Panembahan Senapati & Sultan Agung of Mataram ending the Demak line. Today's 4 principalities of mataram is from different dynasty.
