The State of Penang, one of the most developed and urbanised Malaysian states, is located at the nation's northwest coast along the Malacca Strait. Unlike most Malaysian states, the history of modern Penang was shaped by British colonialism, beginning with the acquisition of Penang Island from the Sultanate of Kedah by the British East India Company in 1786. Developed into a free port, the city state was subsequently governed as part of the Straits Settlements, together with Singapore and Malacca; the state capital, George Town, briefly became the capital of this political entity between 1826 and 1832. By the end of the 19th century, George Town prospered and became one of the major entrepôts in Southeast Asia.

  • この項ではペナンの地域史を述べる。ポルトガル人がペナンを発見した16世紀頃、ペナン島はすでに500年間に渡って対岸ののスルタン(王)が治める領地となっていた。ヨーロッパ人では、ポルトガル人が最初に訪れてペナンを水の補給地として利用していたが、定住し始めたのはイギリス人であった。クダ王国との戦争の末、1786年8月11日にイギリスに所有権が移り、以後は1941年の日本領と占領を経て、1957年にはマラヤ連邦に参加して独立する。 (ja)
