Bardhere District

Bardera District (Somali: Degmada Baardheere) is a district in the southwestern Gedo region of Somalia. It was first made a political district in 1941. A decade and a half later, during the 1956 general elections, a Somali parliament was voted to be put into place by 1960, once independence would be achieved. All elected Gedo Representatives were elected from the districts of Bardera and Luuq.
