Sidi Bouzid, Administrative region in central Tunisia

The governorate spans 7,405 square kilometers across central Tunisia, featuring escarpments of the Atlas Mountains and sloping eastward terrain.

Created in 1973, the region gained global attention in 2010 when protests originating here triggered the Tunisian Revolution and subsequent Arab Spring.

The region maintains traditional Tunisian agricultural practices, with farmers cultivating crops through both modern techniques and ancestral methods.

The governorate connects to major Tunisian cities through a network of highways, with regular transportation services operating from the capital city Sidi Bouzid.

The territory includes Sebkhet en Noual, a seasonal salt lake, and Barrage Sidi Saad, a dammed lake along the northern border with Kairouan.
