Bong County, Administrative county in central Liberia
Bong County spans 8,772 square kilometers in the north-central region of Liberia, containing twelve districts and bordering Guinea in the northeast.
The county emerged in 1964 during Liberia's administrative restructuring and later became a strategic location during the civil conflicts of the 1990s.
The region includes residents from Kpelle, Mandingo, and Mano ethnic groups, each maintaining their languages, traditions, and social practices.
The central paved road connecting Monrovia to Sanniquellie runs through Bong County, making it a key transportation route for regional commerce.
The county contains substantial iron ore deposits at Bong Mine, while its flag displays purple and orange colors with geological instruments representing the mining sector.
