The Ogachi district encompasses 434.32 square kilometers of land in the northern region of Akita Prefecture, containing the town of Ugo and village of Higashinaruse.
The district emerged from Dewa Province in 1878, initially comprising two towns and 23 villages under the jurisdiction of Kubota and Iwasaki domains.
