Solo, or Surakarta, is the name of a town in Central Java province, Indonesia. It is located on a strategic path, the path of the direction that brings Jakarta to Surabaya or Bali, from the direction of Semarang and Yogyakarta to Surabaya and Bali, or vice versa.
The city's history began when the kingdom (Kraton) Kartasuro has suffered severe damage due to the war between the king (Sunan Pakubuana / PB II) and Sunan Yellow (1742). Thanks to the help of VOC, PB II can retake the palace Kartasura. Of course, such assistance is not free but at the expense of some heritage areas Mataram to be given to VOC.
Besides it has also resulted in the destruction of the rebellion palace buildings. The destruction of the palace buildings assessed have eliminated the magic palace because the rebels had entered into the palace, so as to affect the prestige and authority of the kingdom, therefore it is not right that continues to maintain Kartasuro palace as the seat of government or capital of the kingdom of Mataram.
Starting from there, the PB II narapraja appoint some of them: Tumenggung Honggowongso, Pringgoloyo Duke, Duke Sindurejo, Tumenggung Mangkuyudo, Tumenggung Pusponegoro, Ngabei Yosodipuro, Mayoor Hogengdarp, which is then coupled with Prince Wijil, Tumenggung Tirtiwigunio, Kyai Caliph Buyut and Penggulu Fekih Ibrahim, to find a place that would serve as a center pemeritahan kingdom.
After making odyssey to various places, the narapraja eventually found three places or villages namely Kadipala, Sala village, and the village of Sana Sewu, which could serve as the center of the new government. After negotiations, the village of Sala finally chosen for submission to Sunan PB II as the center of the new palace of Mataram. Sala village which is located about 10 Km east of the city Kartasuro.
Majesty approved the proposal, which later by the King Sunan Paku Buana II named Surakarta Sultanate. On Wednesday the 17th of Shura in 1670 or February 17, 1745, move the king Sunan Paku Buana II of Kartasuro to Surakarta Sultanate, the transfer is carried out with a massive procession. So since then capital of Mataram Kingdom moved from Kartasuro to Surakarta Sultanate. The event is then used as the basis for the birth of the city of Solo.
From the village of Sala is the administrative center of the Mataram kingdom is run and controlled. Referred to as the village of Sala, because in the village there lived a wise community leader named Kyai SALA. Besides this village too swampy and filled with Sala trees are trees or indigo tom, but there is also a mention similar sala tree pine trees.
Although originally named Sala (use letters a), but in its development, change and more familiarly called Solo (use the letter o), this occurs because an error occurred in the name of the Dutch city because they are not as flexible as the tongue is the tongue of Indonesia. Since then then not only foreigners, but also the people of Indonesia was called by SOLO. The mention of this was easier pronounced, digestible and has a deeper meaning than the typical official name.
Name Surakarta Sultanate became overshadowed as compared to Solo because of his name-giver, Pakubuwono II, who was pro-colonial. Surakarta menceriminkan then considered the nature of power, the capitalist-colonial, while reflecting the spirit of the popular Solo (rooted tree as the origin of its name from Sala) and give keteduan, keayoman the people (foliage).
For the Solo, the name issue is not a significant problem. The issue appears only among academic intellectuals only. For the people of Solo, Surakarta name was accepted as a form of respect and appreciation to the PB II, which was the forerunner, regardless of the pro colonial and others.
Thus both the name of Surakarta or Solo both will always be present, reflecting the relationship of mutual respect between leaders and people. Leaders must always rooted and his people and had to run leadership mandate for the greatest welfare of the people. Therefore, the popularity behind the name Solo, Sala recalled the tree that will always rooted and populist.
