Pasay, officially Lungsod ng Pasay and commonly Pasay City, is one of the cities in Metro Manila, the National Capital Region of the Philippines. It is bordered to the north by the City of Manila, Makati to the northeast, Taguig to the east, and Parañaque to the south. Due to its location just south of the City of Manila, Pasay quickly became an urban town during the American colonial period.HistoryNamayanThe Namayan was a confederation of barangays which reached its zenith c. 1175. Its ruler, whose capital was at Sapa (today part of Santa Ana, Manila), controlled territory stretching from Manila Bay to Laguna de Bay. Dayang-dayang Pasay, presumably a royal or noble of the realm, is noted as having inherited lands in what is now Culi-culi, Pasay, and Baclaran, marking the area as subject to Namayan.Spanish EraThe Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan arrived in what is now the Philippines on March 16, 1521. On May 19, 1571, Miguel López de Legaspi took formal possession of the Kingdom of Maynila and its surrounding polities in the name of the Spanish Crown. For 250 years, the Islands were governed by the Viceroy of Mexico, but in practise Catholic clergymen governed local politics.
