Due to the missionaries' visit and decision to establish a church in the Chiefdom at the time, all cultural and traditional practices were abolished by the citizens.

Prior to the First Liberian Civil War (1989-1997), Kparblee District was one of Nimba County's strong hopes for agricultural products such as cocoa, coffee and plantains.
