Ming–Kotte War
The Ming–Kotte War was a military conflict between the expeditionary forces of the Chinese Ming empire with the Sinhalese Kotte kingdom, located in the southern territories of present-day Sri Lanka. This conflict happened when Ming China's treasure fleet returned to Ceylon in 1410 or 1411. It resulted in the overthrow of the Sinhalese ruling house.
==Background==
On Ceylon, the Kotte kingdom was waging a war against the Jaffna kingdom.〔 Alakeshvara had gained military prestige in the war.〔 Eventually, he came to power and ruled Kotte under a puppet king from the previous royal dynasty.〔 However, he eventually usurped the royal throne of the kingdom.〔 During the treasure voyages, Admiral Zheng He and his fleet arrived in local waters nearby to establish Chinese control and stability along the maritime routes in the waters of Ceylon and southern India.〔 However, Alakeshvara posed a threat to Chinese trade by committing piracy and hostilities in the local waters.〔
Alakeshvara was hostile to the Chinese presence in Ceylon during the first treasure voyage, and Admiral Zheng He decided to leave Ceylon and traveled to other destinations.〔.〕 During the third treasure voyage, the treasure fleet would return to the Kotte kingdom.〔 However, this time they came to depose Alakeshvara by military force.〔 states that the confrontation in Ceylon against Alakeshvara most-likely happened during the outward journey in 1410 rather than the homeward journey in 1411.〔.〕 However, he also notes that most authorities think that the confrontation happened during the homeward journey in 1411.〔
