Achkhoy-Martanovsky District

Achkhoy-Martanovsky District is a municipal area in western Chechnya with multiple rural settlements spread across the region. Achkhoy-Martan serves as the administrative center while other towns form agricultural communities.

The district was established in 1935 as an administrative unit and has undergone several regional changes since then. This institutional continuity shaped how the settlements developed over the decades.

The population maintains traditional Chechen ways of living that show in daily routines and local customs within the settlements. These practices shape the social bonds and how communities interact across the district.

Medical care is provided by two hospitals, with the main facility concentrated in Achkhoy-Martan. Visitors should know that health services in smaller settlements may be limited.

The area includes twelve separate local administrations, each managing its own agricultural affairs independently. This decentralized structure reflects how rural communities have historically organized themselves.
