Bugulminsky District (Russian: Бугульми́нский райо́н; Tatar: Бөгелмә районы) is an territorial administrative unit and municipality of the Republic of Tatarstan within the Russian Federation. The district is located in the southeastern part of the republic and occupies an area of 1,408.6 square kilometers (543.9 sq mi). According to the 2010 census, the municipality had a population of 22,261 people. The main city Bugulma is not included within the administrative structure of the district.[4]
The main city derived its name from the Bugulminka River. The settlement on the site of the modern city was first mentioned in the sources of 1736. In imperial Russia, the Bugulminsky county (uyezd) was part of the Orenburg and later Samara provinces. In 1920, the county was renamed to Bugulminsky canton within the Tatar ASSR. In August, 1930, the canton was divided into several districts, including Bugulminsky.[5]
