At first people, who lived in the area of Poso, were under the authority of the Government of kings, who consisted of the King of Poso, King of Napu, King of Mori, King of Tojo, King of Una Una and King of Bungku.
These six kingdoms were under the influence of three kingdoms, namely:

– Northern Territory was subject to the King of Sigi, domiciled in Sigi (Regional Donggala),
