History

Originally Amnat Charoen was a ''Mueang'' under ''Mueang'' Khemarat. In the ''thesaphiban'' administrative reforms around 1900 it was reassigned to Ubon Ratchathani and converted into a district. In 1993 the new province Amnat Charoen was created, and the district was then renamed to Mueang Amnat Charoen.

Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Senangkhanikhom, Pathum Ratchawongsa, Phana, Lue Amnat and Hua Taphan of Amnat Charoen Province, and Pa Tio and Thai Charoen of Yasothon Province.

Administration

The district is subdivided into 19 subdistricts (''tambon''), which are further subdivided into 212 villages (''muban''). The town (''thesaban mueang'') Amnat Charoen covers parts of the ''tambon'' Bung. Nam Plik is a township (''thesaban tambon'') which covers parts of the same-named ''tambon''. There are further 19 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
