town of Nyandoma.[3] Population: 30,244 (2010 Russian census);[5] 33,465 (2002 Census);[9] 40,601 (1989 Soviet census).[10] The population of Nyandoma accounts for 73.9% of the district's total population.[5]

History

The area was populated by speakers of

Ingermanland Governorate (known from 1710 as Saint Petersburg Governorate). In 1727, it was transferred to the newly established Novgorod Governorate. After a number of administrative reforms, Kargopolsky Uyezd became one of the four uyezds of the newly established Olonets Governorate. In 1894, the decision was taken on the railroad construction from Vologda to Arkhangelsk. It was decided that the railroad would take the shortest route, which means it bypasses Kargopol and traverses the current territory of Nyandomsky District. In 1896, Nyandoma
was founded as a railway station.

On July 15, 1929, the uyezds were abolished, the governorates merged into

Northern Oblast
. In 1937, Northern Oblast was split into Arkhangelsk Oblast and Vologda Oblast. Nyandomsky District remained in Arkhangelsk Oblast ever since.
