Negro Oriental in brief-
Originally called Buglas, its name was changed by the Spaniards who colonized the country. Referring to the dark-skinned natives that lived on the island, the Spaniards changed its name to Negros. At first, the province was part of Cebu until it was turned into an independent military district in 1734. One-third of the Philippines' population reside within Metro Manila.
Manila, the country's capital, is the most densely populated city in the world.
Davao City is the biggest city outside the Metro Manila.
Quezon's population is expected to reach four million by 2025 and 2030 census.
The Philippines is an island country in South East Asia, comprising 7,641 islands. The islands, located in the Pacific Ocean, are broadly divided into three principal geographical divisions; Mindanao, Visayas, and Luzon.
The metropolitan area comprises 16 cities, including the three most populous cities in the country, namely Quezon, Manila, and Caloocan. Metro Manila is particularly populous because it is the seat of government as well as the country’s cultural, educational, and economic hub. Besides the three cities above Davao and Cebu cities complete the list of the five biggest cities in the Philippines. But, what makes these cities so populated?
Although Quezon City is not the country’s capital, it is the biggest city in the Philippines by population, with about 2.9 million residents. The city was founded by Manuel L Quezon, the Philippines’ second president. It served as the country’s official capital between 1948 and 1976. Although Quezon was only founded in 1939, it has experienced dramatic population growth within a short time. Its population surpassed that of Manila in 1990 and was the first city to pass the 2 million mark. The city’s population is expected to reach 4 million by 2025-2030.
Quezon City is a highly urbanized area and hosts several government offices, including the House of Reps and the seat of the Vice President. Besides, it is also home to some of the largest education institutions in the country, including Ateneo de Manila University and the University of the Philippines Diliman. QC also has several attractions, including Quezon Memorial Circle. Therefore, Quezon City is not only populous because it is highly urbanized, but also because it is an educational, cultural, and entertainment center. #philippines #tanjaycityrocks #filipino #manila #quezon #tanjay #philippine #treadtravels #razzamatazed #travelPH
