Country Democratic Republic of the Congo |
Kasaï-Central is one of the 26 provinces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Specified under Article 2 of the country's 2006 Constitution, the new province was finally created in 2015 from Lulua District and the independently administered city of Kananga, both previously part of the pre-2015 Kasaï-Occidental province. The capital of the province is Kananga.
