UNION: Best of the Islands Philippines
La Union was created by virtue of
a "Superior Decreto" issued on March 2, 1850 by Governor
General Narciso Zaldua Claveria out of nine towns of Pangasinan,
three of Ilocos Sur and settlements of the Eastern Pais del Igorotes
in the Cordilleras. Its creation as a province was formally approved
by a Royal Decree issued by Queen Isabela of Spain on April 18,
1854.
From its incepcion as a province
up to the Second World War, La Union
experienced transformations in the socio-cultural and politico-economic
aspects. After the War, rehabilitation and reconstruction were
done eventually propelling the province as the center of commerce
and trade and the administrative center of Region I.
