Tiaret Province, Administrative province in northwestern Algeria
Tiaret Province encompasses 20,673 square kilometers of land at an elevation of 1,186 meters, containing 14 districts and 42 municipalities.
The province emerged in 1974 through the reorganization of El Asnam and Tiaret departments, later transferring territory to form Tissemsilt Province in 1984.
The name Tiaret originates from the Berber word for lioness, reflecting the historical presence of Barbary lions in the North African region.
The province operates the National Stud Farm of Chaouchaoua, which maintains agricultural operations and contributes to the regional farming economy.
Ancient jedars, rectangular and square podium monuments with pyramid tops, stand on hills 30 kilometers southwest of the provincial capital.
