Kossi Province
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Province de la Kossi lies in the western part of Burkina Faso and stretches to the border with Mali. The capital of Kossi is the town of Nouna, which has a mayor and high commissioner. The next largest town in Kossi is Djibasso, the last major town on the road from Nouna that heads west into Mali.

Kossi is divided into 8 departments:
