History
The district was first established in 1928 at the time of the Kazakh ASSR. In the century that followed it went through three periods of abolishment and restoration. Finally Makanshi District was re-established in January 2024 by segregating the eastern sector of Urzhar District through a decree of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan.[2][3]
