This province was created in 2004 from the northern districts of Oruzgan Province.
Daykundi (Persian: دایکندی), also spelled as Daikundi, Daikondi or Dai Kundi, is one of the thirty-four provinces of Afghanistan, located in the central part of the country.
Daykundi Province falls into the traditionally ethnic Hazara region known as the Hazarajat and the provincial capital is Nili. It is surrounded by Bamyan Province in the northeast, Ghazni Province in the southeast, Urozgan Province in the south, Helmand Province in the southwest, and Ghor Province in the northwest.
Note: the Openstreetmap borders currently used on Mindat still include Gizab District, which was transferred in 2004 from Uruzgan Province to Daykundi Province, but then re-annexed to Uruzgan in 2006.
