==History of Bangued, Abra, Philippines==
==History of Bangued, Abra, Philippines==
The beginning of Bangued
Bangued means "ROADBLOCK". The town of Bangued is bounded on the north by the town of Danglas, on the south by the towns of Pidigan and Peñarrubia, on the east by the towns of La Paz and Tayum and move on the west by the town of Langiden and the province of Ilocos Sur.
 
Bangued is at present the provincial capital of Abra province. It was established as a regular town in 1598 and was made as the seat of the provincial government of Abra on July 25, 1861, which inauguration was coincided with the Feast Day Saint James the Great.
 
The early settlers were the Tinguians belonging to the Bago, Itneg, Masadjit, lbanao, Indayas tribes, who latter intermarried with the inunigrating Ilocos Sur.
 
The Tinguians were opposed to Christianization which was introduced by the Friars who penetrated the eastern settlements. The Tinguian residents prevented the Spaniards from penetrating their area of which they placed roadblocks on all roads leading to the place. They also cut big logs and thrown to the Abra river to prevent the incoming colonizers from entering the area with the use of their boats and bamboo rafts. These logs were made as obstacles and big rocks were placed along the roads which the natives called "BANGEN" meaning obstacles.
 
When the conquistadores led by Juan de Salcedo decided to penetrate the area, they proceeded eastward and saw for themselves the big logs along the Abra river and the big stones which were place blocking all roads leading to the community. The Salcedo's subaltern happened to meet one of the natives and asked what was the name of the place and thinking that they were inquiring about the big stones that were placed on the roads, he answered "BANGEN" and the subaltern jotted down on his notebook about the word "BANGEN".
 
The Spaniards were successful in their attempt to penetrate the inner communities in the east by removing the obstacles saying in Spanish "Abra ese obstucus" and it was in that happening when they developed the area and established the towns and barangays. The place where they found many obstacles, they named it "Bangen" and the province they called it "Abra".
 
When the Americans colonized the country they established the civil form of government and when they formally declared the town Bangen as a regular municipality they named it "BANGUED" a modification of the word Bangen and when the town was made a Provincial Capital of the province of Abra, they retained the name as Bangued up to this day.
