Until December 1, 2005, Perm Oblast (Template:Lang-ru) was a federal subject of Russia (an oblast) in Privolzhsky (Volga) Federal District. According to the results of the referendum held in October of 2004, Perm Oblast was merged with Permyakia Autonomous District to form Perm Krai.
The oblast was named after its administrative center, the city of Perm. The oblast covered an area of 160,600 km², and as of the 2002 census the population was 2.82 million.
Before the merger, neighboring oblasts and republics were (from north clockwise) Komi, Sverdlovsk Oblast, Bashkortostan, Udmurtia, Kirov Oblast, and the Autonomous district of the Komi-Permyaks.
