Mueang Amnat Charoen District

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. It was later named Bung after the central "tambon". In 1939 it was renamed Amnat Charoen. In 1993 the new province Amnat Charoen was created, and the district was then renamed Mueang Amnat Charoen.
