History of the kingdom of Lauli (Loli)

The kingdom of Lauli consisted of three regions, namely Lauli Bodo, Lauli Bawa and Waibanggga. Before 1912 the king of Lauli was Umbu Ngailu Beku, later replaced by Dangi Lade, king of Lauli Bawa. After king Dange Lade died in 1920, in each the territories came into power a assistent king (regent): King Toda Leru for Lauli Bodo region, King Keba Buningani for Lauli Bawa region and King Giku Umbu Wolika for region Waibangga.
All three formed a Lauli Kingdom Government Commission. In 1927 the assistent king of Louli Bawa, Keba Buningani was replaced by Koki Umbu Daka. King Giku Umbu Wolika of Waibangga was replaced by King Lede Mude. In 1932 the king Koki Umbu Daka became king for the whole kingdom Lauli,  until the Lauli Kingdom Government Commission was removed, but for the region Waibangga was appointed an assistent king namely Dato Goro, replacing King Lede Mude. 1940 Koki Umbu Daka died in a car accident. In 1941 he was replaced by king Saba Ora, who served as king until the occurrence of a change of government of Indonesia.

The kingdoms on Sumba

Google translation

The people of Sumba generally have no kingdom in their traditional system of government. There are only villages led by a head of each village, customary rules that apply in each village. However, during Dutch colonial rule, to facilitate control, the Dutch began to establish relationships with village heads. They entered into a contract of cooperation, in which each traditional ruler who signed the contract (often called the Short Placard Contract or Korte Verklaring) was officially recognized and called the king and given stick as a sign of power. From here tokko (stick) became popular. There are two types of rods of gold-headed stick (tokko ndoko) given to the main king, and silver-headed stick (tokkoamaho kaka) for auxiliary king.

The king, who had the approval of the Dutch government had to recognize the sovereignty of the Dutch authorities and one of his important duties was to tax the Dutch interests. Thus their sovereignty has actually been under the control of other nations, but de facto the kings remain sovereign and highly respected by their people and through them the Dutch powers the entire community. At first there were the heads of the villages, who did not bow to and against the Dutch government, but because of the strong military strength they finally surrendered and submitted to the power of the Dutch.
