It kept these boundaries until 2012, but other subdivision boundary changes began to be made in 2008. Kouibly Department was created in 2005 as a second-level subdivision via a split-off from [Man Department](/source/Man_Department).[3] At its creation, it was part of [Dix-Huit Montagnes Region](/source/Dix-Huit_Montagnes_Region). In 2011, [districts](/source/Districts_of_Ivory_Coast) were introduced as new first-level subdivisions of Ivory Coast. At the same time, regions were reorganised and became second-level subdivisions and all departments were converted into third-level subdivisions. At this time, Kouibly Department became part of [Guémon Region](/source/Gu%C3%A9mon_Region) in [Montagnes District](/source/Montagnes_District). In 2012, five sub-prefectures were split-off from Kouibly Department to create [Facobly Department](/source/Facobly_Department).[4] ## Notes 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** ["Préfets de Région et de Préfets de Département (Conseil des ministres du mercredi 26 septembre 2012)"](http://news.abidjan.net/h/442135.html), abidjan.net, 2 October 2012. 1. **[^](#cite_ref-2)** [Citypopulation.de](https://www.citypopulation.de/en/ivorycoast/admin/) Population of the regions and departments of Ivory Coast 1. **[^](#cite_ref-3)** ["Regions of Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast)"](http://www.statoids.com/yci.html), statoids.com, accessed 16 February 2016. 1. **[^](#cite_ref-4)** ["Le décret n° 2012-611 du 04 juillet 2012 portant création des Départements de Djékanou, Sipilou, Kong, Gbéléban, Taabo, Kouassi-Kouassikro, Méagui, Séguélon, Buyo, M'Bengué, Facobly et Dianra"](http://www.depse.ci/telecharger-fichier-joint/17) [Archived](https://web.archive.org/web/20161221002001/http://www.depse.ci/telecharger-fichier-joint/17) 2016-12-21 at the [Wayback Machine](/source/Wayback_Machine). v t e Departments of Ivory Coast Abidjan Autonomous District Abidjan (2) Bas-Sassandra District Gbôklé Region Fresco (77) Sassandra (38) Nawa Region Buyo (96) Guéyo (78) Méagui (104) Soubré (41) San-Pédro Region San-Pédro (37) Tabou (42) Comoé District Indénié-Djuablin Region Abengourou (1) Agnibilékrou (6) Bettié (73) Sud-Comoé Region Aboisso (3) Adiaké (51) Grand-Bassam (55) Tiapoum (92) Denguélé District Folon Region Kaniasso (81) Minignan (68) Kabadougou Region Gbéléban (100) Madinani (67) Odienné (34) Samatiguila (88) Séguélon (105) Gôh-Djiboua District Gôh Region Gagnoa (24) Oumé (35) Lôh-Djiboua Region Divo (21) Guitry (79) Lakota (30) Lacs District Bélier Region Didievi (61) Djékanou (98) Tiébissou (57) Toumodi (47) Iffou Region Daoukro (19) M'Bahiakro (33) Ouellé (111) Prikro (64) Moronou Region Arrah (71) Bongouanou (11) M'Batto (84) N'Zi Region Bocanda (53) Dimbokro (20) Kouassi-Kouassikro (102) Lagunes District Agnéby-Tiassa Region Agboville (5) Sikensi (65) Taabo (107) Tiassalé (45) Grands-Ponts Region Dabou (54) Grand-Lahou (25) Jacqueville (56) La Mé Region Adzopé (4) Akoupé (60) Alépé (52) Yakassé-Attobrou (94) Montagnes District Cavally Region Bloléquin (59) Guiglo (26) Taï (108) Toulépleu (58) Guémon Region Bangolo (7) Duékoué (22) Facobly (99) Kouibly (62) Tonkpi Region Biankouma (9) Danané (18) Man (31) Sipilou (106) Zouan-Hounien (66) Sassandra-Marahoué District Haut-Sassandra Region Daloa (17) Issia (27) Vavoua (48) Zoukougbeu (95) Marahoué Region Bonon (109) Bouaflé (12) Gohitafla (110) Sinfra (40) Zuénoula (50) Savanes District Bagoué Region Boundiali (15) Kouto (83) Tengréla (44) Poro Region Dikodougou (75) Korhogo (29) M'Bengué (103) Sinématiali (90) Tchologo Region Ferkessédougou (23) Kong (101) Ouangolodougou (89) Vallée du Bandama District Gbêkê Region Béoumi (8) Botro (74) Bouaké (13) Sakassou (36) Hambol Region Dabakala (16) Katiola (28) Niakaramandougou (85) Woroba District Bafing Region Koro (82) Ouaninou (87) Touba (46) Béré Region Dianra (97) Kounahiri (69) Mankono (32) Worodougou Region Kani (80) Séguéla (39) Yamoussoukro Autonomous District Attiégouakro (72) Yamoussoukro (49) Zanzan District Bounkani Region Bouna (14) Doropo (76) Nassian (63) Téhini (91) Gontougo Region Bondoukou (10) Koun-Fao (70) Sandégué (89) Tanda (93) Transua (43) Defunct departments Centre (1961–69) Centre-Ouest (1963–69) Est (1963–69) Nord (1961–69) Ouest (1961–69) Sud (1961–69) v t e Departments and sub-prefectures of Guémon Region, Montagnes District Regional seat: Duékoué Bangolo Department Bangolo* Béoué-Zibiao Bléniméouin Diéouzon Gohouo-Zagna Guinglo-Tahouaké Kahin-Zarabaon Zéo Zou Duékoué Department Bagohouo Duékoué* Gbapleu Guéhiébly Guézon Facobly Department Facobly* Guézon Koua Sémien Tiény-Séably Kouibly Department Kouibly* Nidrou Ouyably-Gnondrou Totrodrou * also a commune [7°15′N 7°14′W / 7.250°N 7.233°W / 7.250; -7.233](https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?pagename=Kouibly_Department¶ms=7_15_N_7_14_W_) This Montagnes District location article is a stub.
