Meru County is one of the Forty seven Counties of Kenya, and one of the two predominantly Meru Counties, the other being Tharaka-Nithi. Meru Country is located in the geographical center of Kenya in what was formerly the Eastern Province. It is composed of what was formerly known as Meru Central District and Meru North District.

Meru County is the home of the Imenti, Tigania and Igembe sub-tribes of the Ameru (Meru) tribe, which is related to other tribes living around the Mount Kenya region: the Kikuyu and the Embu people. The Ameru are generally called "Bantu" people who have been native to the Mt. Kenya area for many, many years &mdash; well before colonization of Kenya by Great Britain in the 19th Century. The people of Meru County are now predominantly Christian &mdash; Methodist, Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, and other denominations, reflecting the work of missionaries &mdash; with also minorities of Indian descent, who are mainly Hindus, and African/Arab descent, who are Muslims. Meru County also has some resident Europeans predominantly British in ancestry.

The proposed county headquarters is in Meru. The County has seven constituencies: South Imenti, Central Imenti, North Imenti, Igembe South Constituency, Igembe North Constituency, Tigania East Constituency, Tigania West Constituency and the proposed Buuri Constituency.
