The territory extends over 1,798 square kilometers of varied terrain, from river valleys to mountain ranges, including the Osum Canyon and Tomorr massif.

Archaeological discoveries from Bronze Age burial mounds in Pellumbas reveal ancient settlements, with silver earrings and bronze belt-buckles indicating early human presence.

The region contains numerous religious structures from different periods, demonstrating the long-term presence of both Islamic and Christian communities in the area.
