Wikipedia's article on Majapahit, community-edited. Reliable for the settled founding date, 10 November 1293, Raden Wijaya's coronation, the empire's peak under Hayam Wuruk and Gajah Mada in the mid fourteenth century, when the 1365 Nagarakretagama records about 98 tributary states from Sumatra to New Guinea, and its fall in 1527 to the Islamic Sultanate of Demak, marking the end of the last major Hindu-Buddhist empire in the region; not the right source for a precise date on Islam's earlier, gradual spread through Java that preceded Majapahit's final collapse.
