Benishangul-Gumuz, (Amharic:ቤንሻንጉል ጉሙዝ) also known as Benshangul/Gumaz, is one of the nine ethnic divisions (pl., kililoch) of Ethiopia. Previously known as Region 6, the region's capital is Asosa. Following the adoption of the 1995 constitution, the Region was created from the westernmost portion of the Gojjam province (the part north of the Abay River), and the northwestern portion of the Welega Province (the part south of the Abay).
