In the middle of the 15th century the ruler of Aceh converted to the Islamic faith. Founder of the Sultanate of Aceh was Ali Mughayat Syah († 1530), which began to extend its control over all of northern Sumatra in conquests from 1520. Under the twelfth Sultan Iskandar Muda of Aceh ( 1583 - 1636) reached the Sultanate of its greatest territorial extent, in 1612 conquered and annexed the " Young Alexander" ( literal translation from Iskandar Muda ) the area of the later Sultanate of Deli, which until then by the Portuguese was controlled.
