Lenine Raion of Crimea, Administrative district in eastern Crimea.

Lenine Raion stretches across 2,919 square kilometers of the eastern Crimean Peninsula, containing twenty-eight settlements and municipalities under its jurisdiction.

The district, established in 1930, underwent multiple name changes from Petrovsky to Kerch before becoming Lenine Raion with its administrative center in Yedi Kuyu.

Many settlements within the district carry names in Russian, Ukrainian, and Crimean Tatar languages, reflecting the multilingual heritage of this territory.

The district maintains an extensive network of rural communities, agricultural lands, and transportation connections linking the settlements to the administrative center.

The territory experienced significant demographic shifts in 1944 when Soviet authorities implemented large-scale population movements that altered the local ethnic composition.
