Muna Regency (Kabupaten Muna) is a regency of Southeast Sulawesi Province of Indonesia, covering parts of the island of Muna as well as part of the neighbouring Buton Island and smaller islands off its coast. Until 2014 it had an area of 2,945.05 km², but in that year the western eleven districts of that Regency were split off to form a new West Muna Regency. The reduced regency now covers an area of 2,057.69 km², and the districts comprising that area had a population of 196,645 at the 2010 Census; the latest official estimate (as at 2018) is 227,941. The principal town lies at Raha, in Katobu District.

Administration

The Muna Regency was divided until 2014 into 33 districts (kecamatan), but following the separation of the eleven districts in the west of the island, the remaining twenty-two districts are tabulated below with their areas and their 2010 Census populations and the most recent (2017) estimates.
