The Maule Region (Spanish: Región del Maule, pronounced [ˈmawle]) is one of Chile's 16 first order administrative divisions. Its capital is Talca. The region derives its name from the Maule River which, running westward from the Andes, bisects the region and spans a basin of about 20,600 sq. km. The Maule River is of considerable historic interest because, among other reasons, it marked the southern limits of the Inca Empire.
