Andevoranto[andevʷˈrantʷ] is a rural municipality in the Brickaville District, Atsinanana Region, Madagascar.
It is located near the coast and near the mouth of the Rianila River[2] at a distance of 20 km from Brickaville.[3]
During the French colonial rule of the island, Andrevoranto was the capital of Andevoranto Province, and sources also described it as a former capital of the Betsimisaraka people in the region.[4][5][6] The town was at that point also the junction of a number of important roads, including the key road from the coast to the capital, Antananarivo.[7] Today, the key route of Route nationale 2 from the capital is located west of Andevoranto.
