Neighboring districts are (from the east clockwise) Satuek, Ban Dan and Khu Mueang of Buriram Province and Chumphon Buri of Surin Province.
The minor district (King Amphoe) was established on July 1 1997, when it was split off from Satuek district[1].
Following a decision of the Thai government on May 15 2007, all of the 81 minor districts were to be upgraded to full districts[2]. With the publishing in the Royal Gazette on August 24 the upgrade became official [3].
The district is subdivided into 4 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 61 villages (muban). Khaen Dong is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Khaen Dong. There are also 4 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
