RUSSIA - Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug — Yugra / Ханты-Мансийский автономный округ — Югра

Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Yugra or Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug – Yugra (Russian: Ха́нты-Манси́йский автоно́мный о́круг — Югра́, Khanty-Mansiysky avtonomny okrug; Khanty: Хӑнты-Мансийской Aвтономной Oкруг (Ȟănty-Mansijskoj Avtonomnoj Okrug; Mansi: Ханты-Мансийский Aвтономный Oкруг (Hanty-Mansijskij Avtonomnyj Okrug) is a federal subject of Russia (an autonomous okrug of Tyumen Oblast). It has a population of 1,532,243 as of the 2010 Census. 

The peoples native to the region are the Khanty and the Mansi, known collectively as Ob-Ugric people, but today the two groups only constitute 2.1% of the region's population. The local languages, Khanty language and Mansi language, enjoy special status in the autonomous okrug and along with their distant relative Hungarian are part of the Ugric branch of the Finno-Ugric languages. Russian remains the only official language. In 2012, the majority (51%) of the oil produced in Russia came from Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug, giving the region great economic importance.

The okrug was established on December 10, 1930, as Ostyak–Vogul National Okrug (Остя́ко-Вогу́льский национа́льный о́круг). In October 1940, it was renamed the Khanty-Mansi National Okrug. In 1977, along with other national okrugs of the Russian SFSR, it became an autonomous okrug (Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug). The administrative center is Khanty-Mansiysk. In 2003, the word "Yugra" was appended to the official name. The okrug occupies the central part of the West Siberian Plain. Principal rivers include the Ob and its tributary the Irtysh. The northeasterly line of equal latitude and longitude traverses the Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug.
