After the 2006 National Census, Ashar District was separated from the county in the formation of Zaboli County;[a] Murtan and Parud Rural Districts were separated from the Central District in the establishment of Parud District; Zardban Rural District was created in Pishin District, and Jakigur Rural District was separated from it to join the Central District.[6]
