CAVITE at a GLANCEA Brief Ecological Profile

HISTORY

Colonizers arrived in a land thrust into Manila Bay, presently known as Cavite City, which became one of the significant areas of influence during the Spanish times.

Americans established civil government in the province. Sangley Point naval station became the chief American naval base in the country (1901). The Philippines regained independence on July 4 1946.

Politico-military jurisdiction of Cavite was established. British defeated the Spaniards and occupied the port in two years. This event sparked an idea to the Caviteños the of possibility of overthrowing Spanish rule.

Missionary orders from Spain acquired vast haciendas in Cavite that became the source of bitter agrarian conflicts between friars and Filipino farmers. This pushed number of Caviteños to live as outlaws.

After the outbreak of Philippine Revolution, Cavite took center stage as thousands of Katipuneros liberated in most of the province’s towns (1896).

For centennial years, Cavite has portrayed an important role in the country’s colonial past and eventual fight for independence, gaining the title “Historical Capital of the Philippines.” Cavite and its people, what they are today, and what will be tomorrow will remain with their infinity as a place with a glorious history and people fortified with strength to live and die for a worthy cause.

Cavite City was fortified as first line of defense for ManilaMany Chinese merchants settled in Bacoor and Kawit to tradeSpanish seamen and local gave rise to Chabacano

Cavite mutiny took place and became the opening curt of the skirmish for the Filipino emancipation.

Thirteen prominent Caviteños were executed and this event rang down the curtain for the Spanish regime in the country.

Philippine Independence was declared in Cavite el Viejo known today as Kawit.
