Manouba is a province in the north of the Republic of Tunisia, adjacent to the capital city of Tunis, and is part of the Greater Tunis region. Established in 2000, it covers an area of approximately 1,137 square kilometers and has a population of approximately 380,000, with the city of Manouba as its administrative center.
Located on the Mediterranean coastal plain, the Governorate has a mild Mediterranean climate with rainy winters and dry summers. As an important agricultural region in Tunisia, it is rich in olives, cereals and fruits, and the olive oil processing industry is particularly developed. There are also light industry and textile parks in the governorate, and the economy is diversified.
With its higher education institutions such as the University of Tunis, Mynoubay is one of the most important educational centers in North Africa. Historically influenced by Phoenician, Roman and Arab civilizations, the province retains its traditional crafts and architecture, while at the same time incorporating a modern cityscape that reflects Tunisia's cultural inclusiveness.
