Centrale is one of Togo's five regions. Sokodé is the regional capital. Other major cities in the Centrale region include Tchamba and Sotouboua.
Centrale is divided into the prefectures of Blitta, Sotouboua, Tchamba, and Tchaoudjo.
Centrale is located north of Plateaux Region and south of Kara Region. Like the rest of the regions of Togo, it borders Ghana in the west and Benin in the east — specifically the Northern Region in the northwest and the Volta Region in the southwest, and the Donga Department in the northeast, and the Collines Department in the southeast.
