The province was established in 2012 when it was separated from the Southern Highlands Province, making it one of PNG's newest administrative divisions. Hela covers an area of approximately 10,500 square kilometers and has a population of around 250,000 people according to recent estimates. The province is divided into three districts - Komo-Magarima, Koroba-Kopiago, and Tari-Pori - which are further subdivided into 15 local-level government areas.
