Mununjali (also known as Mananjahli, Manaldjahli and Manandjali) is a dialect of the Yugambeh language.
The Mununjali language area includes landscape within the local government boundaries of the Scenic Rim and Beaudesert Shire Councils.

Prior to 2008, the new Scenic Rim Region was an entire area of three previous and distinct local government areas:
the Shire of Boonah;
the southern part of the Shire of Beaudesert;
and the Harrisville and Peak Crossing areas from the City of Ipswich.

In July 2007, the Local Government Reform Commission released its report and recommended that the areas amalgamate.
It identified a rural community of interest as well as ecotourism potential from the Scenic Rim, a group of mountain ranges forming part of the Great Dividing Range, and recommended the transfer of the entire urban growth corridor previously within Beaudesert to Logan City.
Along with Lockyer Valley and Somerset, it was expected to provide a rural hinterland for urban South East Queensland.
The arrangement was Boonah's second preference (its first was simply absorbing the rural areas of Ipswich) while Beaudesert opposed splitting or amalgamation.

The legislation passed to effect the merger on 10 August 2007.
A Local Transition Committee made up of staff and councillors of the dissolving entities was formed to manage the process.
On 15 March 2008, the Shires formally ceased to exist, and elections were held on the same day to elect councillors and a mayor to the Regional Council.
