SARAWAK was once ruled by the Brooke Rajahs for over 100 years from 1841 to 1946, starting with James Brooke, then his nephew Charles Brooke and finally Charles’ son Charles Vyner Brooke.

In 2010, the descendants of the Brookes set up the Brooke Trust in Britain to preserve the family papers and artefacts.
