Maura Law
The Maura Law was a law that laid the basic foundations for municipal government in the Philippines. It is named after its author, Don Antonio Maura , the Spanish Minister of Colonies. It was promulgated on May 19, 1893, and put into effect starting in 1895. The foundations set by the Maura Law were later adopted, revised, and strengthened by the American and Filipino governments that succeeded Spanish rule in the country.
