Administered from (although not including) the town of Goondiwindi, it covered an area of {{convert|13400.8|km2|sqmi|1}}, and existed as a local government entity from 1879 until 2008, when it amalgamated with the Shire of Inglewood and the Town of Goondiwindi to form the Goondiwindi Region. HistoryThe Waggamba Division was created on 11 November 1879 as one of 74 divisions around Queensland under the Divisional Boards Act 1879 with a population of 1176.[2] Its headquarters were in the town of Goondiwindi.[3] In 1888, the urban area of Goondiwindi was excised from the Waggamba Division to create a separate municipality, the Borough of Goondiwindi.[3] With the passage of the Local Authorities Act 1902, Waggamba Division became the Shire of Waggamba on 31 March 1903. On 15 March 2008, under the Local Government (Reform Implementation) Act 2007 passed by the Parliament of Queensland on 10 August 2007, the Shire of Waggamba merged with the Shire of Inglewood and Town of Goondiwindi to form the Goondiwindi Region.[3] Towns and localitiesThe Shire of Waggamba included the following settlements: {{col-begin|width=40%}}{{col-break}}Towns:
