Dang Deukhuri is located in Inner Terai, some 280 km west of the capital city, Kathmandu in Rapti Zone of Nepal's Mid-Western Region. The district covers 2,955 km² with a population (2011) of 548,141.〔 Ghorahi (formerly Tribhuvannagar) is the district's administrative center and largest city while Tulsipur to the west is a transportation hub and Rapti Zone's administrative center.There are numerous temples and gumbas in Dang district. ==Geography and climate== This district consists of the larger easterly and upstream portions of the parallel Inner Terai valleys of Dang and Deukhuri, plus enclosing ranges of hills and mountains. Downstream, both valleys cross into Banke District, Bheri Zone. To the south, the district borders Uttar Pradesh, a state in india, Nepal's neighboring country—specifically the Balarampur and Shravasti districts of Awadh. Because the international border follows the southern edge of the outermost Siwalik foothills called the Dudhwa Range, there is no Outer Terai extending onto the main Ganges Plain inside this district. The permeable geology of the Siwaliks does not support moisture retention or soil development, so they are covered with unproductive scrub forest. The Dudhwas rise steeply to a crest at about 700 meters, then slope more gradually into the Deukhuri Valley, down to 250 meters elevation at the Rapti River. The Dudhwas extend more than 100 km, causing the Rapti to detour west around them before turning southeast down the main trend of the plains into India. Deukhuri's climate is nearly tropical and it is well watered by the river, as well as possessing abundant groundwater. North of Deukhuri Valley, the Dang Range rises as high as 1,000 meters with passes at about 700 meters. The Dang Valley lies north of these hills, drained by the Babai River tributary to the Ghaghara (Karnali). Valley elevations range from 600 meters along the Babai with alluvial slopes gradually rising northward to 700 meters along the base of the Mahabharat Range. The district then extends upslope to the crest of the Mahabharats at 1,500 to 1,700 meters elevation. The bordering districts to the north are Pyuthan, Rolpa, and Salyan. ==Population by Census 1971-2011〔#〕〔#〕== Colors= id:lightgrey value:gray(0.9) id:darkgrey value:gray(0.8) id:sfondo value:rgb(1,1,1) id:barra value:rgb(0.6,0.7,0.8) ImageSize = width:350 height:303 PlotArea = left:50 bottom:50 top:30 right:30 DateFormat = x.y Period = from:0 till:600000 TimeAxis = orientation:vertical AlignBars = justify ScaleMajor = gridcolor:darkgrey increment:100000 start:0 BackgroundColors = canvas:sfondo BarData= bar:1971 text:1971 bar:1981 text:1981 bar:1991 text:1991 bar:2001 text:2001 bar:2011 text:2011 PlotData= color:barra width:20 align:left bar:1971 from: 0 till:167820 bar:1981 from: 0 till:266393 bar:1991 from: 0 till:354413 bar:2001 from: 0 till:462380 bar:2011 from: 0 till:548141 PlotData= bar:1971 at:167820 fontsize:XS text:167,820 shift:(-14,5) bar:1981 at:266393 fontsize:XS text:266,393 shift:(-14,5) bar:1991 at:354413 fontsize:XS text:354,413 shift:(-14,5) bar:2001 at:462380 fontsize:XS text:462,380 shift:(-14,5) bar:2011 at:548141 fontsize:XS text:548,141 shift:(-14,5) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dang District, Nepal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
