Before the 2015 regional reform, Letefoho had an area of 35.80 km². Now there are 34.48 km².

history
Same was the capital of the Empire of Manufahi, which offered resistance to the Portuguese colonial rulers until 1912 .
During the civil war between FRETILIN and UDT in the last days of Portuguese colonial rule, most of the residents of Letefoho fled their homes into the mountains on August 11, 1975. They feared being abducted by the UDT after FRETILIN supporters had been killed in Wedauberek ( Alas administrative office ).
At the end of 1979 there were Indonesian camps for East Timorese in the city of Same and another place in Letefoho , who were to be relocated by the occupiers for better control.
In 1999 the city of Same was almost completely destroyed by pro-Indonesian militias during the Indonesian Operation Donner .
On March 1, 2007, the fugitive rebel leader Alfredo Reinado was trapped in Same with 150 men by Australian ISF soldiers. About a hundred residents fled the place. On March 4, the Australian Army stormed the place with the help of helicopters and armored vehicles. Five rebels died, while no one was injured by the Australians. Reinado managed to escape, but some rebels were captured.
