    Sri Susuhunan Pakubuwono XIII has been the king of the Surakarta Sunanate since 2004. The title Pakubuwono XIII was initially claimed by two of the sons of the former king, Pakubuwono XII, Hangabehi and Tedjowulan, after their father's death. The problem of succession arose because the sons had been born to different mothers but Pakubuwono XII had never formally appointed a queen consort. The oldest son, Kanjeng Gusti Pangeran Haryo Hangabehi, was appointed by the royal family as the court's ruler. The younger son, KGPH Tedjowulan, then declared a walkout from the palace. Both sons subsequently claimed the title and each separately held a funeral for their father. However, family consensus recognized KGPH Hangabehi as SISKS Pakubuwono XIII.
