The Sunda Kingdom was a historical kingdom located in the western part of Java, Indonesia. It existed from the 7th century until the 16th century and was known for its rich culture, trade, and agriculture. The kingdom's capital was in Sunda Kelapa, which is now part of modern-day Jakarta. The Sunda Kingdom played a significant role in regional trade, connecting various islands in the Indonesian archipelago. It was influenced by Hinduism and Buddhism, which shaped its art and architecture. The kingdom eventually declined due to the rise of the Islamic Sultanates in the region.
