## History

M'Batto Department was created in 2009 as a second-level subdivision via a split-off from [Bongouanou Department](/source/Bongouanou_Department).[4] At its creation, it was part of [N'Zi-Comoé Region](/source/N'Zi-Como%C3%A9_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, M'Batto Department became part of [N'Zi Region](/source/N'Zi_Region) in [Lacs District](/source/Lacs_District). In 2012, it was joined with two other departments to form the new [Moronou Region](/source/Moronou_Region).
