    GENERAL TRIAS

    Overview
    Cavite is known as the Historical Capital of the Philippines and it is home to many historical
    sites, including General Trias. The city is a first-class component and the third largest town in
    the province of Cavite, with its zip code of 4107, that spans a total land area of 90.01 square
    kilometers. According to the 2020 census it has a population of more than 450,000 people
    within 33 barangays. It is located in the southeastern part of the province of Cavite and is
    bounded by the municipalities of Tanza, Amadeo, and Silang, and the cities of Trece Martires
    and Dasmariñas.

    History
    Spanish Colonization - This city is known for its huge role during the Spanish colonial period.
    Back then, the area was known as "Las Estancias," as it was used as ranchlands and
    agricultural estates. It was also a part of the bigger municipality of Cavite el Viejo (now known as
    Kawit).

    Founded - San Francisco de Malabon was founded on December 13, 1748, and was originally
    a small fishing village in the province of Cavite. The town's name was derived from its patron
    saint, Saint Francis of Assisi.

    First Cry of Cavite - On the morning of August 31, 1896, the first uprising of the "First Cry of
    Cavite" occurred in San Francisco de Malabon. Filipino revolutionaries, led by Mariano Trias,
    Diego Mojica, and Nicolas Portilla, captured the town's tribunal.

    American Control 1898 - 1902 - With the end of Spanish rule, the Philippines fell under
    American control. General Trias continued to develop agriculturally, with rice, coconut, and
    sugarcane becoming important crops. The town also experienced infrastructural improvements
    during this period.

    Renaming - As time went by, the place was eventually referred to as Malabon. In the year 1914,
    the origin of the name Malabon is uncertain, but some suggest that it came from "maraming
    labong," which means there are plenty of bamboo shoots in the area. Others say it was derived
    from "mayabong," which means that the place is lush and abundant. General Mariano Trias, one
    of the bravest generals of the Katipunan, used the name "Labong" as his alias. This may have
    contributed to the association of the name with the region.

    In Honor to General Trias - During the Philippine Revolution against the Spanish colonial
    government, General Mariano Trias, considered as the first de facto vice president of the
    revolutionary government, he led the forces that fought for independence. He was a key figure
    in the revolution and was initiated through legislation introduced by Emilio P. Virata during his
    time as the representative of Cavite from 1919 to 1921. As a recognition of his contribution, In
    the year 1920 the city's name was changed to General Trias.
    Cityhood - On August 19, 2015, Philippine President Benigno S. Aquino III signed Republic Act
    No.
    10675 which converted the municipality of General Trias into a component city of Cavite. The
    bill
    finally came into full effect after majority of the city's residents voted yes to cityhood through a
    plebiscite. General Trias thus became the seventh city in the province of Cavite and the 145th in
    the Philippines.

    Present - As of today, General Trias is a first-class urban municipality in the province of Cavite,
    Philippines. The town is considered as the third fastest growth in recent years, with the
    foundation of industrial parks, commercial centers, and residential subdivisions.
