The state historians refer to as the Sultanate of Mataram in 1570 emerged from the ruins of its predecessor, the Sultanate of Demak. It became the dominant polity on the Island of Java, until it disintegrated into the Sultanates of Surakarta and Yogyakarta in 1755. Historians use the name Mataram to describe the combined polities of Surakarta and Yogyakarta until into the 19th century.
