Prince Mangkunegara V, 5th Duke of Mangkunegaran was the fifth ruler of the Duchy of Praja Mangkunegaran which reigned relatively briefly (1881-1896). His birth name is Gusti R.M. Sunita, the second son of Mangkunegara IV with the second empress, R.A. Dunuk (Kg.B.R.Ay. Adipati Arya MN IV)Soemahatmaka et al., 1973; p. 171. His biological brother, G.R.M. Prabu Sudibya, who was prepared by Mangkunegara IV to replace him as the holder of the throne, turned out to die at the age of a teenager, so it was Sunita who was later prepared as the heir to the throne.
Mangkunegara V was replaced by his younger brother, G.R.M. Suyitna, as Mangkunegara VI, considering that his eldest son had not reached maturity at the time of his death.
Of his sons who have the potential to replace his position, there are two, namely KPH.Suryakusuma as the eldest son of Mangkunegara V with the nicknames BRM Samekto and RMA. Suryasuparta. The two sons of Mangkunegara V on historical fact did not replace his father as Mangkunegara VI because the throne then fell to the younger brother Mangkunegara V namely RM.Suyitno who replaced his brother to Mangkunegara VI.
