Borena Zone
Borena (or Borana) is one of the zones of the Oromia Region of Ethiopia. Borena is named after a tribe of the Oromo people. Borena is bordered on the south by Kenya, on the west by the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples Region, on the north by Guji and on the east by the Somali Region. The highest point in this zone is Mount Dara Tiniro. Cities and major towns in this Zone include Moyale, and Negele Boran.
== History ==
The Borena Zone was created shortly after the adoption of the new constitution in 1995 and the creation of the Oromia Region. In September 2003, the upland woredas were separated from Borena to create the Guji Zone.〔("Heavy rains in Borana and Guji Zones of Oromiya Region cause critical and potential water problems" ) UN-OCHA Report, June 2003 (accessed 16 January 2009) Although this source states the administrative change occurred September 2003, this is an understandable mistake due to the Ethiopian year starting in November.〕 Since then many of the remaining woredas have been reorganized to create new ones.
This Zone was selected by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development in 2004 as one of several areas for voluntary resettlement for farmers from overpopulated areas; no specific woredas were identified in this program. Borena became the new home for a total of 9145 heads of households and 45,725 total family members.〔("Resettlement 2004" ), Disaster Prevention and Preparedness Agency (DPPA) (accessed 26 November 2006)〕
Drought conditions in Borena in 2006 have increased tensions between the Borena and Guji clans from 22 May, and spiraled into violence a week later. Clan elders were able to restore peace, but only after 10 days of fighting in which between 100 and 150 people were killed and left thousands displaced.〔(Passengers die in Ethiopia ambush (BBC) )〕
