Cheremshansky District (Russian: Черемшанский райо́н; Tatar: Чирмешән районы) is an territorial administrative unit and municipality of the Republic of Tatarstan within the Russian Federation. The district is located in the south of the republic and occupies a total area of 1363,9 square kilometers (or 526.2 sq miles). According to the 2010 census, the municipality had a population of 20,361. The administrative center of the district, the “selo” (village) of Cheremshan accounts for 29.1% of the district's total population.[3]
The settlement of Cheremshan arose in the 1730s within a fortress of the same name located on the New Zakamskaya fortification line that was built on the southern border of Muscovy. The district was first established under the name Pervomaisky on August 10, 1930. In 1963, it was abolished and the territories residing in it were transferred to the Oktyabrsky and Almetyevsky districts. In January 1965, the district was reestablished once more and received its contemporary name of Cheremshansky.[4][3][5]
