Territorial reorganizations
The establishment of the Ankara Metropolitan Municipality in 1984
The areas of Gölbaşı and Mamak were spun off from İlçe Çankaya in 1983 and made their own İlçe, so the number of inhabitants fell significantly between 1980 and 1985. With the organization of Ankaras as a large city municipality in 1984, with which the previous Belediye Ankara was dissolved, these İlçe ( including Cankayas) then organized themselves as communities (Belediye).
