Ciomas is a kecamatan in Bogor Regency, West Java, Indonesia. It is located near the provincial border with Banten, about 21 kilometers southwest of the regency capital Cibinong, and 3 kilometers west of the city center of Bogor. [2] It borders Bogor Barat in the north, Bogor Selatan in the east, Tamansari in the south, and Dramaga in the west. In 2021, Ciomas has a total population of 172,336. [3]
Ciomas is located to the west of Cisadane River, with waterways like Cisindangbarang and Ci Karti flowing through it. Its average elevation is 222 meters above the sea level. [4]
During the Dutch colonial period, this area was named Land Tjiomas after Tjiomas River that used to flow through it. In 1886, local farmers launched the Ciomas Peasant Rebellion ( Indonesian: Pemberontakan Petani Ciomas) to revolt against landlords and the Dutch colonial government, culminating in the murder of the then Ciomas sub-district head, Haji Abdurrachim. [5] The incident resulted in the death of about 40 people, and left 70 others injured. [6]
Following the Independence of Indonesia, Ciomas became part of Buitenzorg Kawedanan (today's Bogor Regency). For the following decades, Ciomas remained as a district with 40 villages and an area of 100.85 square kilometres. [7] Since 1992, Ciomas experienced three separate changes in its administrative boundaries:
