Keumahalayati joined a military academy where she met the man who would later become her husband. Not long after their marriage, her husband was killed during a sea battle against the Portuguese, To continue her husband's fight against European colonizers, she made a request to their Sultan of Aceh to form her own army. Soon she gathered 2000 women whose husbands had died during the war. This women army was known as the Inong Bale. In 1559, a Dutch expedition led by Cornelis de Houtman arrived at the port of Aceh. But conflict soon grew and the Dutch decided to attack the Acehnese. Keumalahayati led her Inong Bale army to fight the forces and killed de Houtman in September 1559. This success in battle earned Keumalahayati the title of Laksamana (Admiral).
