Siatista
Europe is one of the five inhabited traditional continents of the Earth. Physically and geologically, Europe is the westernmost peninsula of Eurasia, west of Asia. Europe is bounded to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the west by the Atlantic Ocean, to the south by the Mediterranean Sea, and to the southeast by the waterways adjoining the Mediterranean to and including the Black Sea and the Caucasus Mountains. On the east, Europe is divided from Asia by the water divide of the Ural Mountains and by the Caspian Sea. Europe is the world's second smallest continent in terms of area and third largest continent after Asia and Africa in population.
Siatista is a town of the Kozani Region which is about 28 kilometers to the southeast of its capital city. It was built on the austral slope of the Velia mountain and on a height of 930 meters. The first name of the city was Kalivia, because the huts were its characteristic. In 1745, the city was called Siatista city. Siatista was liberated from the turks by the Greek army, on 4 November 1912.
