Brazzaville is also one of the departments of the Republic of the Congo, having separated itself from the Pool Region in 1980. The city has nine arrondissements.

Brazzaville was founded in 1880 by Pierre Savorgnan be Brazza (who the city is named after). Brazzaville served as the capital of French Equatorial Africa, and became the capital of the Republic of the Congo when it became independent in 1960.
