REGENCY OF BLORA

History of the regency Blora, 16th century

Blora was under the Government of the Duchy of Jipang in the 16th century, which at that time was still under Demak. The Duke of Jipang at that time was Aryo Penangsang, better known by the name Aria Jipang. The kingdom of Pajang reigned not long, as it was captured by the Mataram kingdom, which was centered in the town of Yogyakarta. Blora was included in the eastern part of Mataram or the region of Bang Wetan. During the reign of Pakubuwana I (1704-1719) Blora was given to his son, named Prince Blitar and he was given the title of Duke.
When Mataram was under Pakubuwana II (1727-1749), there was an uprising, led by Mangku Bumi and Mas Sahid. Mangku Earth successfully mastered Sukawati, Grobogan, Demak, Blora, and Yogyakarta. Finally Mangku Bumi was appointed by the people to become king in Yogyakarta.

During the Mataram Kingdom

The Kingdom of Pajang did not reign for long, because it was taken by the Kingdom of Mataram, which was centered in Kotagede, Yogyakarta. Blora belonged to the eastern part of Mataram or the Bang Wetan area. During the reign of Paku Buwana I (1704-1719) the Blora area was given to his son named Prince Blitar and was given the title Adipati. The area of Blora at that time was 3,000 works (1 work = hectare). In 1719-1727 the Mataram Kingdom was led by Amangkurat IV, since then Blora was under the reign of Amangkurat IV.
