## Why This Works
Montrado was the seat of the Lanfang Republic (1777-1884), one of history's few Chinese-governed republics outside China, established by Hakka gold miners in West Borneo. This little-known history fascinates historians, Chinese diaspora researchers, and Kalimantan heritage tourists. There is almost zero quality English content on this topic, making it an easy authority grab.
