Zanzan Region, Former administrative region in northeastern Ivory Coast.

The region spans 38,251 square kilometers of land, containing seven departments including Bondoukou, Bouna, Koun-Fao, Nassian, Sandégué, Tanda, and Transua.

Established in 1997 as a first-level subdivision of Ivory Coast with Bondoukou as its capital, the region operated until its dissolution in 2011.

The territory encompasses multiple ethnic communities engaged in traditional agricultural practices and commercial activities across its departments.

Located at 356 meters above sea level, the region experiences a tropical climate that supports farming activities throughout its extensive territory.

The area transformed into Zanzan District during the 2011 administrative reorganization, maintaining its original geographical boundaries while adopting a new governance structure.
