Arsi Province

Arsi Province prior to 1995.

Arsi was a province of Ethiopia with its capital at Asella. The province was reduced to a Zone of the Oromia Region with the adoption of the new constitution in 1995.

Both the Zone and the former province are named after a subgroup of the Oromo, who inhabit both the former Bale and Arsi provinces.
