Kolonodale was originally the administrative capital of Morowali Regency. In 2004, the plan to shift the Morowali capital southeast from Kolonodale to Bungku left non-Bungku residents, both Protestant and Muslim, feeling further disenfranchised.[3] On 12 April 2013, a new North Morowali Regency was established, partitioned from the Morowali Regency, with Kolonodale as its principal town.[4]
Kolonodale has a tropical rainforest climate (Af) with heavy to very heavy rainfall year-round.
