}}Template:Main other{{#ifexpr:{{#invoke:ParameterCount|main|mapframe|image_map|image_map1|pushpin_map}} >2 |Template:Main other}} Ujar District (Template:Langx) is one of the 66 districts of Azerbaijan. It is located in the centre of the country and belongs to the Central Aran Economic Region. The district borders the districts of Agdash, Goychay, Kurdamir, and Zardab. Its capital and largest city is Ujar. As of 2020, the district had a population of 89,500.<ref name="statgov" />

History

The name Ucar derives from the Turkic word "Ucqar" meaning "remote", as Ucar was remote from the Shirvanshah capital at Baku, and on the frontier of the Shirvan state.<ref>Eminov, Zakir Namin oğlu (2005) Azärbaycanın ähalisi: iqtisadi, sosial vä demoqrafik problemlär Baku, page 157, Template:OCLC, in Azeri</ref>

Before, the territory of the Ujar region was part of the Shirvan Beylerbey, later Shamakhi khanate. On April 10, 1840, according to the administrative reform, it was the part of Caspian Province, and in 1846, joined the Shamakhi Governorate. After the Shamakhi earthquake in 1859, the centre of the Governorate moved to Baku.<ref name=":1">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In December 1867, Goychay Uyezd was established in the territory of Baku province. At that time, the district was part of the Goychay Uyezd. In 1930, the Uyezd was abolished and the district was transferred to the administrative unit. Thus, the Ujar District was created on 24 January 1939 as an independent administrative unit from part of Goychay region.<ref name="SC-Ujar">"Ujar Rayon" Supreme Court of Azerbaijan, in Russian, last accessed 12 November 2010</ref><ref name=":1" /> The territory of the region was changed in 1963. Thus, Zardab district was abolished in 1963 with its territory joined to the Ujar district. In 1965, the Zardab district was separated from Ucar when it was restored as an independent region.<ref name=":1" />

Population

Template:As of, Ujar District had an estimated population of 77,900 people, of which 22% were urban dwellers and 78% rural.<ref>"Demographic indicators" The State Statistical Committee of the Republic of Azerbaijan</ref> The population is 99.7% Azerbaijanis.Template:Citation needed According to the report of Statistical Committee of Republic, the total number of population in 2010 was 71,900 people. By 2018, it had increased by 15,800, or 22%, and reached 87,700.
