The department of Bougie was a French department of Algeria between 1958 and 1959. Considered since March 4, 1848 as an integral part of the French territory, Algeria was administratively organized in the same way as the metropolis. Thus, for a hundred years, the city of Bougie was a sub-prefecture of the department of Sétif until March 17, 1958.
