• On June 1, 1959 - The town of Shirone was elevated to city status to become the city of Shirone. (3 towns, 1 village)
• On November 1, 1996 - The village of Yokogoshi was elevated to town status to become the town of Yokogoshi. (4 towns)
• On March 21, 2005 - The towns of Kameda, Kosudo and Yokogoshi, along with the cities of Niitsu, Shirone and Toyosaka, the town of Nishikawa, and the villages of Ajikata, Iwamuro, Katahigashi, Nakanokuchi and Tsukigata (all from Nishikanbara District), was merged into the expanded city of Niigata.
