- Gajah Mada is a campaign in Age of Empires II HD: Rise of the Rajas. Gajah Mada was the chief minister of the Majapahit Empire in the 14th century. He is famous for his Sumpah Palapa oath, where he said that that he would not eat palapa fruit until he conquered the entire Indonesian archipelago. His struggle to fulfill that oath forms the basis of the campaign. Although the campaign is named after Gajah Mada, the first scenario actually focuses on the story of Mapapahit establishment by Raden Wijaya and his followers.
