Khemarat ( _th. เขมราฐ) is the northernmost district ("Amphoe") of Ubon Ratchathani Province, northeastern Thailand.

History

"Mueang" Khemarat is an ancient city. It was a first class city during Rattanakosin era and reported directly to Bangkok. During the "thesaphiban" reforms at the beginning of the 20th century it became a subordinate of Ubon Ratchathani.

Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the southeast clockwise) Na Tan, Pho Sai, Kut Khaopun of Ubon Ratchathani province, Pathum Ratchawongsa and Chanuman of Amnat Charoen province. To the northeast across the Mekong river are the Laotian provinces of Salavan.

The important water resource is the Mekong river.

Administration

The district is subdivided into 9 subdistricts ("tambon"), which are further subdivided into 117 villages ("muban"). Khemarat itself is a township ("thesaban tambon") which covers parts of the "tambon" Khemarat. There are further 9 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).Missing numbers belong to "tambon" which now form Na Tan district.
