'''Pirkanmaa''' ({{IPA|fi|ˈpirkɑmˌmɑː|lang}}; {{langx|sv|Birkaland}}; {{langx|la|Birkaria|link=no}}), also known as ''Tampere Region'' in government documents,<ref name="pirkanmaa-en">{{Cite web|url=http://www.pirkanmaa.fi/en/welcome-tampere-region|title=Welcome to the Tampere Region|publisher=Council of Tampere Region|access-date=2013-06-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151125041628/http://www.pirkanmaa.fi/en/welcome-tampere-region|archive-date=2015-11-25|url-status=dead}}</ref> is a [[Regions of Finland|region]] of [[Finland]]. It borders the regions of [[Satakunta]], [[South Ostrobothnia]], [[Central Finland]], [[Päijät-Häme]], [[Kanta-Häme]] and [[Southwest Finland]]. Most of the water area in the [[Kokemäki River]] watershed is located in the Pirkanmaa region, although [[Lake Vanajavesi]] is partly in the [[Kanta-Häme]] region. The region got its name from [[Pirkkala]], which in the [[Middle Ages]] comprised most of present-day Pirkanmaa.<ref>{{cite book|author=Viljo Rasila|title=Pirkanmaan synty|publisher=Tampereen historiallinen seura|year=1985|pages=6–25|language=fi}}</ref> [[Tampere]] is the regional center and capital of Pirkanmaa, and at the same time the largest city in the region.

The total population of Pirkanmaa was 529,100 on 30 June 2022,<ref>{{cite web| url= https://pxweb2.stat.fi/PxWeb/pxweb/en/StatFin/StatFin__vamuu/statfin_vamuu_pxt_11lj.px/table/tableViewLayout1/ | title= Preliminary population structure by Month, Area, Sex, Age and Information | date= 2022-07-21 | publisher= Statistics Finland | access-date= 2022-07-22 | language= en }}</ref> which makes it the second largest among Finland's regions after [[Uusimaa]]. The population density is well over twice the Finnish average, and most of its population is largely concentrated in the [[Tampere metropolitan area]].

== History ==
[[File:Seututie 325 Pelisalmi 2.jpg|thumb|left|Aerial view of [[Längelmävesi]], the regional lake of Pirkanmaa]]

Pirkanmaa has been inhabited for thousands of years. In the [[Bronze Age]], agriculture replaced hunting, and in the [[Iron Age]] a settlement stretched from [[Eurajoki]] to [[Längelmäki]], which was Finland's northernmost area of peasant culture from the 8th century. In the 11th century, the settlement was concentrated along [[Kokemäenjoki|River Kokemäenjoki]] and [[Pyhäjärvi (Tampere region)|Lake Pyhäjärvi]]. In the 14th century, present-day Pirkanmaa was part of the [[Satakunta (historical province)|historical Satakunta]], the main part of which was [[Upper Satakunta]] and a small part of which was also [[Lower Satakunta]]. After the wilderness period, the absence of towns slowed down development. King [[Gustav III]] founded [[Tampere]] in 1775, and in the 1840s it became Finland's most important industrial centre. New inventions such as sawdust, cellulose and papermaking boosted development. Industries were established in [[Valkeakoski]], [[Nokia, Finland|Nokia]] and [[Mänttä]], among others. Tampere became the centre of the province and a railway junction.

During the [[Finnish Civil War]], Pirkanmaa was under the control of the [[Red Guards (Finland)|Reds]] and Tampere was the centre of the Reds until the city surrendered to the [[White Guard (Finland)|Whites]] after a [[Battle of Tampere|heavy battle]] in April 1918.<ref>[https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-7397991 YLE: Suomalaiset kuvaavat sotien jälkiä kaupungeissa – katso kuvat ja tarinat tutuilta kulmilta] (in Finnish)</ref> After the war, industrialisation intensified. During the [[Winter War]], Tampere and other cities were bombed. The County of Pirkanmaa was established in 1956. The county was also called ''Tammermaa'', but gradually ''Pirkanmaa'' became the name of the region. In the 1950s, the only city in the province was Tampere, but from 1963 to 1977 the municipalities were made into cities. The number of municipalities decreased in the second half of the 20th century, and old place names were reintroduced as municipalities merged. In 1994 Finland was [[Regions of Finland|divided]] into 20 functional economic provinces, and Pirkanmaa was one of them.

The economic structure of Pirkanmaa typically focuses on services for post-industrial society. A nationally significant [[Information technology|ICT]] concentration has grown in Tampere. Thanks to its population base, the city is also a major trading center. [[Manufacturing|Industry]]'s share of value added and jobs in Pirkanmaa is higher than the Finnish average. The region is one of Finland's main centers of manufacturing, has a long tradition of industrial activity and a good education network. The industry is largely concentrated in Tampere and its surroundings, such as towns of [[Nokia, Finland|Nokia]] and [[Valkeakoski]]. [[Mänttä-Vilppula]] is also a major industrial center. [[Agriculture]] accounts for a small share of economic activity. In the western part of the region, agricultural production is dominated by [[dairy cattle]], in the south by [[cereal]]s, and in the north by [[forestry]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.pirkanmaa.fi/files/files/hallinto/tiedotteet/pdf/Pirkanmaa_2014.pdf|title=Pirkanmaa – Maakunnan yleisesittely|publisher=Pirkanmaan liitto| access-date= January 10, 2021|date=2014|language=fi}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://tilastokeskus.fi/tup/suhdannepalvelu/apirkanmaan_talous_2013.pdf|title=Pirkanmaan talous 2013|publisher=Pirkanmaan liitto| access-date= January 10, 2021|date=2013|language=fi}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://maakuntakaava2040.pirkanmaa.fi/sites/default/files/A_osa_Kulttuurimaisemat.pdf|title=Pirkanmaa – Maakuntakaava 2040|publisher=Pirkanmaan liitto| access-date= January 10, 2021|date=March 3, 2015|language=fi}}</ref>

Pirkanmaa is a rather linguistically homogeneous region: in 2018, almost 490,000 people, or about 95 per cent of the county's population, spoke Finnish as their mother tongue. For Finno-speakers, the national population share of Pirkanmaa was 10.1 per cent.<ref name="KIELET">{{cite web| url= http://pxnet2.stat.fi/PXWeb/pxweb/fi/StatFin/StatFin__vrm__vaerak/statfin_vaerak_pxt_11rl.px/table/tableViewLayout2/?rxid=7e2ad46e-29c6-41ed-908f-26da1bb0acfe | title= Tilastokeskuksen PX-Web-tietokannat / Väestö 31.12. muuttujina Maakunta, Kieli, Ikä, Sukupuoli, Vuosi ja Tiedot | work= Suomen virallinen tilasto (SVT): Väestörakenne [verkkojulkaisu] | ISSN=1797-5379 | date= March 29, 2019 | location= Helsinki | publisher= Tilastokeskus | access-date= January 10, 2021 | language= fi}}</ref> In the 2010s, the number of Finnish-speakers has increased only in [[Uusimaa]], Pirkanmaa and [[Northern Ostrobothnia]], and slightly in [[Southwest Finland]] and [[Åland]].<ref>{{cite web| url= http://pxnet2.stat.fi/PXWeb/pxweb/fi/StatFin/StatFin__vrm__vaerak/statfin_vaerak_pxt_010.px/table/tableViewLayout2/?rxid=4f1047a8-08d5-4e80-9dcd-289bc62839dc | title= Tilastokeskuksen PX-Web-tietokannat / Väestö 31.12. muuttujina Kieli, Maakunta, Ikä, Sukupuoli ja Vuosi | work= Suomen virallinen tilasto (SVT): Väestörakenne [verkkojulkaisu] | ISSN=1797-5379 | date= March 29, 2017 | location= Helsinki | publisher= Tilastokeskus | access-date= January 10, 2021 | language= fi}}</ref>

The [[Swedish language|Swedish-speaking]] settlement settled in Finland in the Middle Ages did not extend to the area of present-day Pirkanmaa, so the number and share of [[Swedo-Finnish|Finno-Swedes]] in the province is small. In 2018, about two thousand people spoke Swedish as their mother tongue in Pirkanmaa.<ref name="KIELET"/> In 2017, 27 people spoke [[Sámi language|Sámi]] as their mother tongue in Pirkanmaa. The second most spoken language in Pirkanmaa is [[Russian language|Russian]]—in 2018 it was used by four thousand people as their mother tongue.<ref name="KIELET"/>
