Gowa Regency
Gowa is a regency in the province of South Sulawesi, Indonesia. It has an area of 1,883 km² and a population of 652,329 at the 2010 Census.
The majority of the Regency (the western eleven districts, with over
76.6% of the regency's population) lies within the official metropolitan
area of the city of Makassar, including the regency's administrative
capital at Sungguminasa. The hill resort of Malino is within the eastern
(non-metropolitan) part of the regency.
Gowa was formerly a kingdom founded in the Makassar region of southwestern Sulawesi before 1300.
From 1660, the Netherlands was at war with Gowa, which was the major Makassar west coast power.
In 1669, Admiral Speelman forced the ruler, Sultan Hasanuddin, to sign
the Treaty of Bongaya, which handed control of trade to the Dutch East
India Company. The Dutch were aided in their conquest by the Bugis warlord Arung Palakka, ruler of the Bugis kingdom of Bone |
