The second era was called the colonial era and during this time, the alliance between the Dutch and Prince Jayawikarta slowly disappeared. Because of this Prince Jayawikarta sent his army (along with the English) to fight the Dutch, but lost. Now that the Dutch owned Jayakarta they renamed it Batavia.
