History

 * Until the first decades of the 20th century, the municipal territory was part of the dense and uninhabited jungle that divided Nicaragua into two. The demand for rootstock and rubber by North American companies in the 1930s inserted it into the economy of the Caribbean coast as a supplier of these products.
 * Its current municipal capital, then called San Pablo, was the point of transfer of this production from the ox carts in which it was collected to the watercraft.
 * The demand for labor from these farms made it possible to settle the municipality.
 * A second great migratory wave, the most intense, occurred from the 1950s until after 1974, linked to the second and third stages of the country's insertion in the world market, with cotton and meat as main agro-exportable products.
 * The municipality of Muelle de los Bueyes was founded on September 18, 1942.
 * Until 1971 Muelle de Los Bueyes was part of the demarcation of El Rama; by then, thanks to internal migration, the population had grown so much that the territory was converted into a municipality.
 * The municipality of Muelle de los Bueyes has a population of approximately 24,400 people.
