Bafing Region is currently divided into three departments: Koro, Ouaninou, and Touba. The region is traversed by a northwesterly line of equal latitude and longitude.
Historyedit
Bafing Region was created in 2000 as a first-level administration region of the country. It was formed by splitting-off Touba Department from Worodougou Region. Koro Department was created as a split-off from Touba Department in 2008.
As part of the 2011 reorganisation of the subdivisions of Ivory Coast, Bafing was converted into a second-level administrative region and was added to the new first-level Woroba District.[5] No territorial changes were made to Bafing as a result of the reorganisation, but a third department—Ouaninou Department—was created by splitting Touba Department again.
