Satakunta, Administrative region in South-Western Finland.
Satakunta encompasses both urban and rural territories, with the city of Pori serving as its capital and the Kokemäenjoki River flowing through the landscape.
The region gained its administrative status in 1998, evolving from a medieval province that once extended into present-day Pirkanmaa during the Swedish rule period.
The Old Town of Rauma within Satakunta holds UNESCO World Heritage status, featuring wooden architecture that represents traditional Finnish construction methods.
The region maintains active ports in Rauma and Pori, facilitating substantial maritime trade and establishing connections with international markets.
The name Satakunta translates to 'hundred' in Finnish, reflecting its historical organization as a territorial unit for military recruitment.
