Fatsa (Gr: Φάτσα) is a seaside town situated between Unye (Gr: Oinoy) and Ordu (Gr: Kotyora). In ancient times the region was known as Fadisani (or Fadissa) a name which the locals retained until more recent times. In the early part of the 20th century, the town had a population of 3,000 of which approximately 1,000 were Turks and the remainder were Greeks, both Orthodox and Evangelists. There was also a small number of Armenians living in the region.
The Greeks of Fatsa belonged to the Diocese of Neocaesarea and Ineos while the Evangelists belonged to the Diocese of Merzifon. The majority of the Turks living in Fatsa were from Surmene, Rize and Georgia while the Greeks of Fatsa moved there from Argyroupolis, Unye, Ordu and Surmene.
The Greeks resided in the two Greek precincts; Rum Machlesi and Yiali Yeni Rum Machlesi in the south-west part of the town. The Greeks of Rum Machlesi supported the operation of an 8-grade boys' and girls' school and a 6-grade school for the Evangelical community. The majority of the Greeks of Fatsa were involved with merchant trades and shipping. After the exchange, the Greeks of Fatsa settled primarily in the region of Pierias in Greece.
