Romblon, Administrative province in Mimaropa region, Philippines
The province of Romblon consists of numerous islands in the Sibuyan Sea, with Tablas, Sibuyan, and Romblon Island forming its main territories.
Spanish colonizers arrived in Romblon in 1569, establishing administrative control and constructing Fort San Andres, which remains visible in the present day.
The population divides into three distinct ethnolinguistic groups - Romblomanon, Onhan, and Asi - each maintaining separate languages and traditions.
Transportation between islands relies on ferries departing from the port of Romblon, while local travel occurs primarily through motorbikes available for rent.
The province contains extensive marble quarries, producing high-quality stone that contributes substantially to the local economy and industrial activities.
