Nong Bua Daeng (Thai: หนองบัวแดง, pronounced [nɔ̌ːŋ būa̯ dɛ̄ːŋ]) is a district (amphoe) of Chaiyaphum province, northeastern Thailand.
History
[edit]The district was established as a minor district (king amphoe) on 16 July 1965, when the two tambons Nong Bua Daeng and Nang Daet were split off from Kaset Sombun District.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on 1 April 1969.[2]
Geography
[edit]Neighbouring districts are (from the north clockwise): Khon San district, Kaset Sombun, Mueang Chaiyaphum, Ban Khwao, Nong Bua Rawe, and Phakdi Chumphon of Chaiyaphum Province; and Nong Phai and Mueang Phetchabun of Phetchabun province.
Administration
[edit]The district is divided into eight subdistricts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 130 villages (mubans). There is one municipality (thesaban), and eight tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
