Keraton Surakarta Sultanate was founded by Susuhan Pakubuwono II (Sunan PB II) in 1745 as a replacement for the palace Kartasura ravaged by Geger Pacinan 1743 (pacinan war). The palace stands in a village beranama village of Sala (Solo) previously this area in the form of a swamp. Village of Sala (Solo) was chosen after considering many aspects. Actually there are two areas ain recommended as a royal palace, but after weighing and the aspect of the future, the village of Sala (Solo) defined as the establishment of a new Kraton Surakarta. After the construction of the palace is completed, the village of Sala (Solo) renamed Surakarta. But until now the Solo name still remembered and still referred to as the city of Solo or Surakarta.
According to history, the Keraton Surakarta is also contributing to the preparation of the independence of the Republic of Indonesia. And after the Republic of Indonesia's independence, became the Special Region Surakarta Surakarta. But the political upheaval in Surakarta, so unplug setatus special area. If you look at history, it should still get the Surakarta special region status as Yogyakarta. But until now this controversy Surakarta Special Region remains a mystery.
