South Konawe Regency

South Konawe Regency is an administrative region in Southeast Sulawesi covering roughly 6,000 square kilometers of tropical rainforest. The regency is centered around Andoolo and subdivided into numerous administrative districts.

The regency was created in 2003 following the division of the former Kendari Regency, establishing new administrative boundaries. This reorganization shaped its current structure.

Local farming traditions, especially rice cultivation, shape how communities live and work across the region. The landscape reflects generations of agricultural knowledge.

The region is connected by a road network linking its various administrative districts. Access is possible, though conditions vary depending on the season and local weather.

Heavy rainfall occurs from December through July, profoundly shaping the region's climate and farming patterns. These extended wet seasons define the area's natural rhythm.
