Itang is one of the woredas in the Gambela Region of Ethiopia. Because Itang is not part of any Zone in the Gambela Region, it is considered a Special woreda, an administrative subdivision which is similar to an autonomous area. It is bordered on the south and southeast by the Anuak Zone, on the west by the Nuer Zone, on the northwest by South Sudan, and on the north by the Oromia Region; part of the southern boundary is defined by the Alwero River. The major town in Itang is Itang. == Overview == The terrain is mostly flat; the altitude of this woreda ranges from 350 to 480 meters above sea level; rivers include the Baro, which the Alwero is a tributary of. According to the ''Atlas of the Ethiopian Rural Economy'' published by the Central Statistical Agency (CSA), around 10% of the woreda is forest.〔(''Atlas of the Ethiopian Rural Economy'' ), p. 18〕 A notable landmark is the Gambela National Park, which embraces the woreda south of the Baro. The economy of Itang is predominantly agricultural. There are no agricultural cooperatives, no documented roads, and little other infrastructure.〔''Atlas of the Ethiopian Rural Economy'', pp. 30f〕 Economy The woreda is one of the higlhly affected wordas by floods. 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「Itang (woreda)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
