'''Bolivar County''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|b|ɒ|l|ᵻ|v|ər}} {{respell|BOL|i-vər}}), officially the '''County of Bolivar''', is a [[County (United States)|county]] located on the western border of the [[U.S. state]] of [[Mississippi]]. As of the [[2020 United States census|2020 census]], the population was 30,985.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts: Bolivar County, Mississippi |url=https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/bolivarcountymississippi |access-date=November 24, 2022 |website=www.census.gov |language=en}}</ref> Its [[county seat]]s are [[Rosedale, Mississippi|Rosedale]] and [[Cleveland, Mississippi|Cleveland]].<ref name="GR6">{{cite web|title=Find a County|url=http://www.naco.org/Counties/Pages/FindACounty.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110531210815/http://www.naco.org/Counties/Pages/FindACounty.aspx|archive-date=May 31, 2011|access-date=June 7, 2011|publisher=National Association of Counties}}</ref> The county is named in honor of [[Simón Bolívar]], early 19th-century leader of the liberation of several [[South American]] territories from [[Spain]].

The Cleveland, Mississippi, [[Micropolitan Statistical Area]] includes all of Bolivar County. It is located in the [[Mississippi Delta]], or Yazoo Basin, of Mississippi. This area was first developed for cotton plantations. Large industrial-scale agricultural operations have reduced the number of farm workers needed, and the population is half of its peak in 1930. Today, soybeans, corn, and rice are also commodity crops.

== History ==
On February 9, 1836, when it was established, the land was originally [[Choctaw]], and was taken for use in agriculture, with some of the most valued land in the state.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |last=r2WPadmin |title=Bolivar County |url=https://mississippiencyclopedia.org/entries/bolivar-county/ |access-date=November 24, 2022 |website=Mississippi Encyclopedia |language=en-US}}</ref> In 1840, there was only one free black person, 384 free whites, and 971 enslaved people, making its population 60% slaves. This number only increased, because around 1860, the population was about 87% slaves, due to its mostly agricultural economy, and continued to gain a high black population, relating to it being in the delta,<ref name=":1" /> and {{Clarify span|mound bayou's|date=March 2023}} pressure for African-Americans to move to the delta. The county had 18 documented lynchings in the period from 1877 to 1950.<ref name="eji 2017">''[https://lynchinginamerica.eji.org/report/ Lynching in America: Confronting the Legacy of Racial Terror]'' ({{nowrap|3{{sup|rd}}}} ed.), [[Montgomery, Alabama]]: [[Equal Justice Initiative]] (2017); {{OCLC|1004771814}}</ref> In the 1920s, Bolivar county was a hotspot for [[Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League|UNIA]] chapters, with 17 chapters, and by 1960, it had a significant local civil rights movement, and remains a mostly black area today.<ref name=":1" />

==Geography==
According to the [[U.S. Census Bureau]], the county has a total area of {{convert|906|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|877|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|29|sqmi}} (3.2%) is water.<ref name="GR1">{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_28.txt|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130928074019/http://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_28.txt|url-status=dead|archive-date=September 28, 2013|publisher=United States Census Bureau|access-date=November 2, 2014|date=August 22, 2012|title=2010 Census Gazetteer Files}}</ref> It is the second-largest county in Mississippi by land area and fourth-largest by total area.
