Sotika was the second son of Inthasom. He succeeded the throne from his younger brother Inthaphom.[1]
In March 1765, Luang Phrabang was conquered by Burmese army. His hundreds of people were taken as hostages by Burmese, including his younger brother Surinyavong. Sotika became a vassal king under Burmese rule. [1] His throne was seized by younger brother Surinyavong II in 1771.[1]
Sotikakumman had only son Ong Manhku Rajakoumane. Ong Manhku later became a pretender to the throne; he was recognized by China and Vietnam but defeated by Anurutha. Manhku died in Tonkin in 1813.[2]
