The Giyanti Agreement was then followed by a meeting between the Sultan of Yogyakarta and Sunan Surakarta in Lebak, Jatisari on February 15, 1755. In this meeting discussed the laying of the cultural foundation for each kingdom. The agreement, known as the Jatisari Agreement, discusses the differences in the identity of the two regions which have become two different kingdoms.
The discussion in this agreement includes procedures for dress, customs, language, gamelan, dances, and others. The essence of this agreement was that Sultan Hamengku Buwono I chose to continue the old tradition of Mataram culture. Meanwhile, Sunan Pakubuwono III agreed to provide modifications or create new cultural forms. The Jatisari meeting became the starting point for different cultural developments between Yogyakarta and Surakarta.
March 13, 1755 (Kemis Pon, 29 Jumadilawal 1680 TJ) is a historic date for the Sultanate of Yogyakarta. On this date the proclamation or Hadeging Nagari Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat was announced. Furthermore, Sultan Hamengku Buwono I began construction of the Yogyakarta Palace on October 9, 1755.
The development process lasts for almost one year. During the development process, Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono I and his family lived in Pesanggrahan Ambar Ketawang. Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono I and his family and followers entered the Yogyakarta Palace on 7 October 1756 (Kemis Pahing, 13 Sura 1682 TJ). In the calendar of the Javanese Year (TJ), this event was marked by memet disputes: Dwi Naga Rasa Tunggal and Dwi Naga Rasa Wani.
Over time, the Yogyakarta Sultanate region experienced ups and downs. Primarily related to the influence of the colonial government both Dutch and British. On June 20, 1812, when the British successfully attacked and entered the palace, Sultan Hamengku Buwono II was forced to abdicate. His successor, Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono III was forced to surrender a portion of his territory to be given to Prince Notokusumo (son of Hamengku Buwono I) who was appointed by Britain as Duke of Paku Alam I.
The Sultanate's territorial power granted to Paku Alam I covers a small portion within the National Capital and mostly in the Adikarto area (southern part of Kulonprogo). This area is autonomous, and can be inherited to the descendants of Prince Notokusumo. Therefore, since March 17, 1813, Adipati Paku Alam I declared the establishment of the Pakualaman Duchy.
The next major change occurred after the birth of the Republic of Indonesia on August 17, 1945. The King of Yogyakarta, Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono IX immediately congratulated the establishment of the new republic for the independence proclamators. Support for the republic became increasingly full when Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono IX and Sri Paduka Paku Alam VIII issued a mandate on September 5, 1945 stating that its royal territory was part of the Republic of Indonesia.
Receiving the mandate, the first President of the Republic of Indonesia, Ir. Sukarno, determined that Sultan Hamengku Buwono and Adipati Paku Alam were single monarchs who held power over the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY). Having been adrift for a number of years, the status of the privilege is getting stronger after the enactment of Act No. 13 of 2012 concerning DIY Privileges. Thus, it is expected that all forms of cultural heritage in the Yogyakarta Sultanate and Pakualaman Duchy can be maintained and maintained.
