In the mid-16th century, the areas of present-day Manila were part of a larger empire governed by Muslim Rajahs. Rajah Sulayman and Rajah Matanda ruled the Muslim communities south of the Pasig River, and Rajah Lakandula ruled the Kingdom of Tondo, the Hindu-Buddhist community north of the river.
The RAJAH holder is in honour of the three monarchs who figured greatly in the Spanish conquest of the Pasig River delta in the early 1570s.
