Tales Beyond the Sunny Side - Episode 18: The Last King


Listen Later

In this episode, I present my research on the story of Sultan Muhammad Fareed Al-Awwal, the last king of the Maldives. 

Maldivian history has primarily been preserved through oral traditions, with limited written documentation available. As a result, some details presented in this episode may not be entirely precise. 

However, I have made every effort to compile and synthesize the information from the sources I was able to access.

Below is a list of references consulted in the research process:
