Nhom was the forth son of Satha I. He became the king or regent after his uncle Barom Reachea III's death. Nhom put down the rebellion led by Kêv, captured Kêv and had him put to death. Nhom also ended the Spanish protectorate.[1] He moved the capital to Phnom Penh.

With the help of Siamese, Nhom's uncle Srei Soriyopear returned to Cambodia.[1] Under the pressure of the nobility and Buddhist clergy, Nhom was forced to abdicate in favor of Srei Soriyopear in 1603. Nhom rebelled against his uncle but was killed at Stoung in 1611.
