Tegal Regency is one of the regencies in the northwest part of Central Java province of Indonesia, with an area of 983.9 km2 (379.9 sq mi). The administrative center used to be in Tegal City, in the northwest corner of the regency, but then Tegal City was administratively separated from the regency and formed into its own territory. The city was later replaced as the administrative center of Tegal Regency by Slawi Town, which is a suburb about 20 km (12 mi) to the south of the city and within the district boundary. The regency had a population of 1,394,839 at the 2010 Census[2] and 1,596,996 at the 2020 Census;[3] the official estimate as at mid 2023 was 1,654,836 (comprising 838,697 males and 816,139 females).[1]
History
The name of Tegal comes from the word Tetegal which means fertile soil capable of producing agricultural crops. Another source states that Tegal's name is believed to come from the word Teteguall - the name given by a trader from Portugal named Tome Pires who stopped at the Port of Tegal in the 1500s.
Tegal Regency was established on 18 May 1601 when Ki Gede Sebayu was appointed as a Juru Demung in Tegal by the Sultan of Mataram, and began to build this area.[4]
Geography
The northern part of Tegal Regency is lowland. While in the southern part is a mountain, Mount Slamet, rising to a peak of 3,428 m2. At the border with Pemalang Regency, there are a series of steep hills down which large rivers flow, namely Kali Gung and Kali Erang, both of which are water-eyed upstream of Mount Slamet.
