History
In the early 17th century, the island of Mindoro was separated from Bonbon (now Batangas) and organized into a "corregimiento". Puerto Galera, what is now Oriental Mindoro, was made its capital.

In 1837, the capital was transferred to Calapan and remained until June 13, 1950, when Mindoro was divided into two provinces. Oriental Mindoro retained Calapan as its capital.

Mindoro originally included the island of Maestro de Campo, east of Pinamalayan, but the island has since become a part of Romblon.
