Brooke continued his uncle's work and continued to fight against piracy and headhunting by the Ibans. At the same time, he promoted trade and expanded the sphere of influence of the white Rajas. The vast forest area of Sarawak and the oil deposits were the personal property of the Brooke family. On 28 October 1869, he married Margaret Alice Lili de Windt, the Rani. Fort Margherita in the capital Kuching was named after his wife. The two had six children:
Dayang Ghita Brooke (1870–1873)
James Harry Brooke (1872–1873)
Charles Clayton Brooke (1872–1873)
Charles Vyner Brooke (1874–1963)
Bertram, Tuan Muda (1876–1965)

With his death (1917), the country of Sarawak became a protectorate of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. His son and successor, Charles Vyner Brooke, the third white Raja, was expelled by the Japanese army in World War II in 1942 and returned to Sarawak in 1945. In 1946, the rule of the white Rajas of Borneo ended when Charles Vyner Brooke handed over control of Sarawak to the British. Sarawak later became part of the Federation of Malaysia.
