The district surrounding the inner part of the Sjona fjord originally belonged to Nesna Municipality. On 1 January 1964 this district (population: 543) was merged with the town of Mo i Rana, Nord-Rana Municipality, and the northern part of Sør-Rana Municipality to create the new Rana Municipality.^[3]
