Farmlands are within the village, the forests dominate the area as well as grasslamds and mountains. It is nearly located between the Selinountas and the Vouraikos rivers. History The village was ruled by the Ottoman Turks with some interruption by the Venetians in the mid to late-15th century and the mid to late-16th century. Kounina was finally Greek after the Greek War of Independence of 1821, right after the signing of the declaration of independence. After World War II and the Greek Civil War, much of the population left for larger towns and cities especially the nearby Patras. The population declined since 1981. Houses were stone-built until the 1950s and did not surpass modern-style homes until the 1980s. It was linked with pavement in the 1980s. Most of the homes are abandoned today. Pteri was shattered by a forest fire that began on Wednesday July 25 and ended on July 28 and brought catastrophic fire to the area, flames were bursting as high as 30 m and smoke as high as 600 m. About 20 to 30% of the village wer burnt with some of their properties burnt. One fire was on a mountain slope that created a smoke enough to cover the area and darken the area tan-brown. Tens of fire trucks, helicopters and planes along with firefighters battled the fire in order to end. Several farms and crops were ruined, roads were also shut down. The fire started in the afternoon hours and expanded to almost to burn about 80 to 90% of the area of Pteri. Residents were panicked on this wildfire.
