The municipality is composed of the districts of Santa Mariana (seat), Panema and Quinzópolis (established by Law No. 245 promulgated on 20 January 1961).

Santa Mariana was established in 1934 on a domain owned by Francisco Junqueira; the tradition says that the new settlement was named for his wife, Mariana Junqueira.
