Bulacan is a province of the Philippines located in the Central Luzon region. It has three cities: Malolos City (the capital), Meycauayan City and San Jose del Monte City. Bulacan is located immediately north of Metro Manila. Bordering Bulacan are the provinces of Pampanga to the west, Nueva Ecija to the north, Aurora and Quezon to the east, and Rizal to the south. Bulacan also lies on the northern shore of Manila Bay.

Bulacan figures prominently in Philippine History. Many national heroes and political figures were born in Bulacan. The province was also one of the first to revolt against Spain. Bulacan is most noted for being the capital of the first Philippine Republic in the now city of Malolos as well as its Malolos Constitution.


History

The province's name is derived from the Tagalog word "bulak" meaning cotton, which was its former principal product.

Bulacan started with small fishing settlements along the coast of Manila Bay, and expanded into the interior with the coming of the Spaniards in the 16th century. These settlements formed the nucleus of towns that were founded from 1572 (Bulacan and Calumpit) to 1750 (San Rafael). In 1848, the town of San Miguel was annexed to Bulacan from Pampanga.

A session of the Malolos Congress at Barasoain Church.Bulacan was one of the first eight provinces to rise against Spanish rule in the Philippine Revolution. The first phase of the revolution ended with the signing of the Pact of Biak-na-Bato in San Miguel in 1897 between the Filipinos and the Spaniards, after which the revolutionary leader Emilio Aguinaldo was exiled to Hong Kong. The second phase saw the drafting of the constitution of the First Philippine Republic by the Malolos Congress at Barasoain Church in 1898. The subsequently established republic had its capital at Malolos until President Emilio Aguinaldo transferred it to San Isidro, Nueva Ecija in 1899 when the Philippine-American War broke out.

When the Americans established a civil government in the Philippines, they held the first election in the country in the town of Baliuag, Bulacan on May 6, 1899.

Notable Filipino figures from Bulacan include Francisco Baltazar (Balagtas), Marcelo H. Del Pilar, and Gregorio del Pilar.

Much of hat your history states is true but you leave out many thing like it was the UN that drew up the partition lines and the British didn't 'just leave'. You talk about the refugees from the 48 war but you fail to mention that the jews asked their brothers to stay and seek a peaceful solution when they were attacked on their day of Independence, and by the way how can the Palesenian people claim heritage from the original Caananites? Also you failed to talk about the Jews living in Arab lands that were expelled during the 48 war including those living in Saudi. Can we let EVERYONE go back to claim what they had at that time or should only Arabs be allowed this priveledge? There have been atrocities committed on both sides why just bring up one lone crazy Jewish gunman? Also you failed to say that the Dome of the Rock is also situated on the same site as the previous Jewish temples long before the revelation to Mohamed, and that according to eyewitness accounts of Jesus saying he was crucified. I can only assume you are Muslim. I have read the Koran. Have you read the Bible or do you take only what you have been told? Did you know that the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem was Hitler's guest during WWII? I do not condone violence in any form it is only through education that we are allowed to erase discrimination and predjudice. You stated that most people quickly converted to Islam in the 600's and that Islam was not 'forced' upon them. Is it not true that Kafir are relegated to third class citizens under Sharia law and subjected to humiliation and heavy taxation? I could state many more things that you have left out but to end your History of 'Palestine', it has been a crossroads for war as far as recorded time and there seems to be no end in sight until we can learn to Love one another and respect our differences while embracing our similarities. Peace be upon us all
