Terengganu’s history stretches back to ancient maritime trade routes, with early Chinese records mentioning it as early as the 6th century. Influenced by Indian, Siamese, and later Islamic cultures, Terengganu became one of the earliest Malay states to embrace Islam, marked by the discovery of the 14th-century Terengganu Inscription Stone — the oldest known Islamic inscription in Southeast Asia. It developed as a prosperous trading port under the influence of the Malacca Sultanate and later the Johor Empire. In the 18th century, it established its own sultanate, maintaining relative autonomy while paying tribute to Siam. In 1909, Terengganu became a British protectorate and, after World War II, joined the Federation of Malaya in 1948, eventually becoming part of independent Malaysia in 1957.
