Mandaue#History

A community was established in Mandaue by a flourishing group of Austronesian people. The Venetian chronicler Antonio Pigafetta wrote of a settlement called "Mandaui" which existed in the area with a chieftain named Apanoaan{{cite book | url =https://books.google.com/books?id=eeY0ifyij6QC&q=mandani+aponoan&pg=PA288 | title = To America and Around the World: The Logs of Christopher Columbus and of ... | work = Antonio Pigafetta, Raleigh Ashlin Skelton| publisher = Branden Publishing Co.| isbn = 9780828320634 | year = 2001 }} some called him Lambuzzan in other accounts.{{cite book | url =https://books.google.com/books?id=RB4usvtAZrEC&q=lambuzzan+mandaui&pg=PA84| title = Magellan's voyage: a narrative of the first circumnavigation | work = Antonio Pigafetta/ Adolph Caso| publisher = Yale University| isbn = 9780486280998 | year = 1994 }}

Mandaue natives were forced into a town as decreed by the Spanish authorities. This may have started off as a mission village (which included present day Consolacion, Liloan and Poro) serving as a bulwark for the church in the northern Cebu and was managed by the Jesuit in 1638 then a century later by the Recollects.{{cite web| url = http://www.admu.edu.ph/offices/mirlab/panublion/r7_mandaue.html| title = Mandaue| work = admu.edu.ph| access-date = June 4, 2010| archive-date = September 27, 2011| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110927162411/http://www.admu.edu.ph/offices/mirlab/panublion/r7_mandaue.html| url-status = dead}}

The Philippine Revolution of 1898 gave the town a new form of administration in accordance with the organic decree of the Central Revolutionary Government. The short-lived revolution was overthrown by the American troops and a battle nearly destroyed the town in 1901, killing Presidente Benito Ceniza.{{sfn|Mojares|1999}}

Mandaue was a semi-autonomous functioning town. Semi-autonomous as it was still under the jurisdiction of Cebu. Despite having been developed and organized by the Spaniards throughout the ages and its population increasing as the years gone by, the Spaniards did not make an initiative to elevate the town into an independent municipality. It was only after the death of Presidente Ceniza and the establishment of American Rule in Mandaue that the dream of becoming an independent municipality came true. In 1901, Mandaue became an independent municipality.{{cite web |url=https://www.mandauecity.gov.ph/ |title=Home |website=mandauecity.gov.ph}}

Mandaue became independent from being an American Commonwealth and a Japanese garrison on July 4, 1946, along with the entire nation.

The city is the 6th smallest government unit in terms of land area; among the Metro Cebu local government units the city is the second smallest next to the municipality of Cordova in the island of Mactan. The city's land area is only 4.5% of the total land area of Metro Cebu and less than 1% of the total land of the province of Cebu.

The North Reclamation Project, now known as the North Special Administrative Zone, currently has about {{convert|180|ha|abbr=on}} reclaimed land. Of the 180 hectares, about {{convert|36|ha|abbr=on}} belong to the city.

It is one of the two (the other one being the municipality of Consolacion) local government units located within the mainland Metro Cebu where the elevation of land is less than {{convert|100|m|abbr=on}}.

Many of the areas of the city are extremely flat. About 77.37% is within the 0-8% slope category. Barangays belonging to this region are Centro, Looc, South Special Administrative Zone, Cambaro, Opao, Umapad, Paknaan, Alang-alang, Tipolo, Ibabao, Guizo, Subangdaku, Mantuyong, Maguikay and Tabok. The greater portion of the city, comprising about 70%, is dominated by the Mandaue Clay Loam soil series. This is found in the 0-2% and 2-5% slope ranges. Faraon clay loam characterizes the rest of the land with slope range from 5-8% and up to 25-40%.{{cite web| url = http://www.mandauecity.gov.ph/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=69&Itemid=81| title = Land Use| work = Mandaue City| publisher = Mandaue city government| access-date = April 6, 2010| archive-date = June 4, 2011| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110604082446/http://www.mandauecity.gov.ph/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=69&Itemid=81| url-status = dead}}
