Khanty-Mansiysk (Russian: Ха́нты-Манси́йск, tr. Hánty-Mansíysk, lit. Khanty-Mansi Town; Khanty: Ёмвоҷ, Jomvoćś; Mansi: Абга, Abga) is a city and the administrative centre of Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug–Yugra, Russia. It stands on the eastern bank of the Irtysh River, 15 kilometers (9.3 mi) from its confluence with the Ob, in the oil-rich region of Western Siberia. Though an independent city, Khanty-Mansiysk also functions as the administrative centre of Khanty-Mansiysky District. Khanty-Mansiysk is one of few capitals of Russian regions that is not the largest city in the area, surpassed by Surgut, Nizhnevartovsk and Nefteyugansk. The city's name consists of the names of the local Indigenous people Khanty and Mansi and includes "-sk" ending which is a typical Russian ending for town names. Before 1940, these people were known as Ostyaks and Voguls respectively. The city's name (then settlement) was Ostyako-Vogulsk.
