Shovgenovsky District (Russian: Шовге́новский райо́н, romanized: Šovgenovskij rajon; Adyghe: Шэуджэн къедзыгъо, romanized: Ṩəwdjən qyedzığo) is an administrative[1] and a municipal[6] district (raion), one of the seven in the Republic of Adygea, Russia. It is located in the central northern portion of the republic and borders with Ust-Labinsky District of Krasnodar Krai in the north, Kurganinsky District of Krasnodar Krai in the north and northeast, Koshekhablsky District in the east and southeast, Giaginsky District in the south, Belorechensky District of Krasnodar Krai in the southwest, and with Krasnogvardeysky District in the west. The area of the district is 521.43 square kilometers (201.33 sq mi).[2] Its administrative center is the rural locality (an aul) of Khakurinokhabl.[1] As of the 2010 Census, the total population of the district was 16,997, with the population of Khakurinokhabl accounting for 23.8% of that number.[3]

History

History of Shovgenovsky District dates back to July 27, 1922, when Adyghe (Cherkess) Autonomous Oblast was established within the Russian SFSR. At that time, the autonomous oblast consisted of three okrugs, one of which, Farssky, covered the territory of modern Shovgenovsky District. On August 5, 1924, Farssky Okrug was renamed Khakurinokhablsky District (Хакуринохабльский район). On December 7, 1956, Khakurinokhablsky District was abolished, and its territory distributed among Koshekhablsky, Giaginsky, and Krasnogvardeysky Districts. On January 12, 1965, however, the district was re-established under the name of Shovgenovsky. During all of the district's history, the aul of Khakurinokhabl served as the district's administrative center.

Administrative and municipal status

Within the framework of administrative divisions, Shovgenovsky District is one of the seven in the Republic of Adygea[1] and has administrative jurisdiction over all of its thirty-one rural localities.[5] As a municipal division, the district is incorporated as Shovgenovsky Municipal District.[6] Its thirty-one rural localities are incorporated into six rural settlements within the municipal district.[6] The aul of Khakurinokhabl serves as the administrative center of both the administrative[1] and municipal[6] district.
