Bataan promontory is located southwards from the western shores of central Luzon, forming the encircled and well-sheltered Manila Bay to the east that is approximately cut off from the open China Sea in the west. The narrow channel separates the cape from Corregidor Island and Cavite to the south.
The provinces of Zambales and Pampanga fashion common boundaries to the northwardly. About 80% of Bataan is mountainous or hilly with Mount Mariveles and Mount Natib dominating the inner. Most of the agricultural part of Bataan is in the north and eastern.
The province experiences two affirmed seasons; dry from November until April and the wet from May to October. During World War II it was the scene of massive fighting between Allied and Japanese forces from January 6,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 1942, to April 9, 1942. Bataan fell to Japan on April 9 and was retaken by an American compel on February 17, 1945.
HISTORY
Several villages in the coastal plains of Bataan were already thriving communities when Spanish missionaries found them in the 1570s. Bataan,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], then known as Vatan, was part of the extensive Capampangan Empire that included what immediately are the provinces of Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, Tarlac,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and some portions of Bulacan, Zambales and Pangasinan, These coastal villages were inhabited by natives who were predominantly fishermen, peasants and craftsmen. Meanwhile, the hillsides were inhabited by nomadic Aeta tribes.
Bataan was built in 1754 by Governor General Pedro Manuel Arandia. Before this,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the zone was divided into two parts: the Corregimiento of Mariveles and the Province of Pampanga. The towns of Mariveles, Bagac, Morong and Maragondon, Cavite comprised the Corregimiento of Mariveles that was under the jurisdiction of the Recollect Order of the Roman Catholic Church. The province of Pampanga comprised the towns of Orion, Pilar, Balanga,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Abucay, Samal, Orani, Llana Hermosa and San Juan de Dinalupihan. The latter group was under the charge of the Dominican Order. Limay, the twelfth town of Bataan, was labeled merely in 1917.
Long before the eruption of Word War II,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Bataan yet acquired herself a secure place in the history of the Philippines. The prince of Filipino printers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Tomas Pinpin, a native of Abucay,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who both authored or co-authored some of the oldest writings in the Philippines and printed them himself between 1610 apt 1639 in the printing reception situated inside the Abucay Catholic Church. In 1647, the pillaging Dutch Naval forces were resisted in Bataan, the defenders ultimately chose the honor of death to the ignominy of concession.
Bataan was in the first provinces to ascend in revolt against Spanish cruelty. Two of her sons, Pablo Tecson and Tomas del Rosario, figured prominently in the Malolos Convention in 1898, and were instrumental in ensuring that the Filipinos enjoyed religious freedom. Cayetano Arellano of Orion became the Secretary of Foreign Affairs of the Revolutionary Government, and later on became the first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
When the Pacific War broke out in 1941, the selection of the peninsula as the locale of the last defensive stand by the USAFFE against the invading Japanese forces brought reputation and infamy to Bataan. The wastage of life and property cannot be estimated. Bataan then became the symbol of valor and tenacity in its hopeless stand against the much superior invading Japanese Imperial Forces. Today, a citizen milestone called the Shrine of Valor (Dambana ng Kagitingan) stands majestically on top of the Mt. Samat in Pilar as proof to the gallantry and sacrifices of the men and women who with their blood, tears, and perspiration made the grounds of Bataan hallow.
CULTURE

Recent fast industrialization has baited thousands of people from other provinces to settle among Bataan.
The province of Bataan has all been linked closely to the culture and economy of Manila. Much of what the province produces is exported to Manila. The primary traditional industry of Bataan is fishing. It is the home of thousands of fishermen whose industry has spawned a solitary craft of net and fishtrap production. Nets produced in Bataan take on assorted forms and fashions favor the panli, kalukutok, pambonot, pansiliw, panitig, mananacag hipon, panglusong, hila-hila, kitang, pangapak, bintol, salambaw, dala, bating, pangalabaw and the gulgureta.
Each net type responds to various needs and uses. There are also various fishtraps like the saluhin, paclang, aguila, panghipon and pangalalo.
