It is in the alluvial plain of central Cambodia and is drained by the Tonle Sap, a tributary of the Mekong river. The capital city of Phnom Penh has grown until it actually encompasses the provincial border of Kampong Chhnang.[4]History[edit]The name translates from Khmer literally to Port of Pottery. Archaeological remains from the area have revealed among many other findings artifacts from Dvaravati, a former kingdom in present-day Thailand, dating to the 6th through 11th centuries.[5]Kampong Chhnang province centuries ago was a coastal city on the route between China and India; due to sedimentation from the Mekong river, the coast line moved much farther to sea. When the Tonle Sap river changed its course, the city lost its main water source and thus was deserted, the population moving to a city called Kampong Tralach. A city gradually formed around it, bring new life to Kampong Chhnang. A museum presents the archaeological record of the city’s history.Symbols[edit]The provincial tree is Diospyros decandra. The provincial slogan is sweet pomelos, delicious rice, beautiful young ladies.Administrative divisions[edit]The province is subdivided into 7 districts and 1 municipality. The districts are further subdivided into 65 communes (khum) and 478 villages (phum). There is one city and 14 townships. There are also 102 khum administrative organizations (KAO).[6][7][8]ISO codeDistrictKhmerPopulation (2019)[9]04-01Baribo\u179f\u17d2\u179a\u17bb\u1780\u1794\u179a\u17b7\u1794\u17bc\u178e\u17cc55,37104-02Chol Kiri\u179f\u17d2\u179a\u17bb\u1780\u1787\u179b\u1782\u17b8\u179a\u17b831,32204-03Kampong Chhnang Municipality\u1780\u17d2\u179a\u17bb\u1784\u1780\u17c6\u1796\u1784\u17cb\u1786\u17d2\u1793\u17b6\u17c6\u178441,08004-04Kampong Leng\u179f\u17d2\u179a\u17bb\u1780\u1780\u17c6\u1796\u1784\u17cb\u179b\u17c2\u178444,06604-05Kampong Tralach\u179f\u17d2\u179a\u17bb\u1780\u1780\u17c6\u1796\u1784\u17cb\u178f\u17d2\u179a\u17a1\u17b6\u178599,35604-06Rolea Bier\u179f\u17d2\u179a\u17bb\u1780\u179a\u179b\u17b6\u1794\u17d2\u17a2\u17c0\u179a103,21904-07Samakki Meanchey\u179f\u17d2\u179a\u17bb\u1780\u179f\u17b6\u1798\u1782\u17d2\u1782\u17b8\u1798\u17b6\u1793\u1787\u17d0\u179981,19704-08Teuk Phos\u179f\u17d2\u179a\u17bb\u1780\u1791\u17b9\u1780\u1795\u17bb\u179f62,287References[edit]^ “General Population Census of the Kingdom of Cambodia 2019 \u2013 Final Results” (PDF).
