The province of [[Lanao (province)|Lanao]] existed from 1914 until 1959. In 1959, Republic Act No. 222 was passed by the Philippine Congress, partitioning Lanao into two provinces: Lanao del Norte and [[Lanao del Sur]].<ref name=ChanRobles-RA2228>{{cite web|title=Republic Act No. 2228 - An Act to Create the Provinces of Lanao del Norte and Lanao del Sur|url=http://www.chanrobles.com/republicacts/republicactno2228.html|website=Chan Robles Virtual Law Library|access-date=December 24, 2015}}</ref> The new province was inaugurated on July 4, with [[Iligan City]] as its capital.
The province then consisted of the municipalities of Baloi, Kauswagan, Bacolod, Maigo, Kolambugan, Tubod, Baroy, Lala, Kapatagan, Karomatan and the following municipal districts that got converted into regular municipalities of Matungao, Pantao Ragat, Munai, Tangcal, and Nunungan.
In 1977, President [[Ferdinand E. Marcos]] signed Resolution No. 805, s. 1977 of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (''Parliamentary Bill No. 586'') sponsored by Assemblyman Abdullah D. Dimaporo, into Presidential Decree 181 transferring the province's capital from [[Iligan City]] to the municipality of [[Tubod, Lanao del Norte|Tubod]].
In October 1984, inaugural ceremonies were held to celebrate the occasion of the transfer of the Provincial Capitol from Poblacion, Tubod to the Don Mariano Marcos Government Center (now Governor Arsenio A. Quibranza Provincial Government Center) at Pigcarangan, in Tubod.
Despite the outbreak of the conflict of the [[Moro Islamic Liberation Front|MILF]] led by Abdullah [[Commander Bravo]] Goldiano Macapaar bin Sabbar and the [[Armed Forces of the Philippines|Philippine Army]] in [[Kauswagan]] in March 2000, through the provincial government's effort, peace and order was restored in the province.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Gallardo |first1=Froilan |title=Clash between soldiers, MILF averted in Lanao del Norte |url=https://www.mindanews.com/top-stories/2012/11/clash-between-soldiers-milf-averted-in-lanao-del-norte/ |access-date=May 19, 2019 |agency=MindaNews |publisher=MindaNews |date=November 16, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=2 Lanao Norte towns under attack by suspected MILF |url=https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/news/regions/114349/2-lanao-norte-towns-under-attack-by-suspected-milf/story/ |access-date=May 19, 2019 |agency=GMA News |date=August 18, 2008}}</ref>
In 2018, the Bangsamoro Organic Law was passed into law; this law provided for the establishment of a new [[Bangsamoro]] [[autonomous region]] to replace the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao. According to this law, the six municipalities of Munai, Tagoloan, Pantar, Baloi, Tangcal, and Nunungan would be incorporated into this new region should a majority of voters in both the affected municipality and the parent province vote in favor of inclusion of the aforementioned municipalities in the proposed autonomous region in a plebiscite.

The population of Lanao del Norte in the 2020 census was 722,902 people,{{PH census|current|10}} with a density of {{convert|{{sigfig|722,902/3,346.57|2}}|PD/km2|disp=or}}. When Iligan is included for geographical purposes, the province's population is 1,019,013 people, with a density of {{convert|{{#expr: 1019013 / 4159.94 round 0}}|PD/sqkm}}.
The people in Lanao del Norte are a mixture of Maranaos and Cebuanos, with some [[Zamboangueño people|Zamboangueños]], [[Tausug people|Tausugs]], [[Yakan people|Yakan]], and [[Sama-Bajau people|Sama-Bajau]]. Historically, immigrants who came from the Christian provinces of Mindanao, Visayas and Luzon tended to settle in the northern part of Lanao while the Maranaos inhabited the south. There are also a minority of Higaonons settling in the hinterlands of Iligan. [[Kankanaey people|Kankanaey]], an ethnic group from the [[Cordillera Administrative Region|Cordilleras]] in [[Luzon]], can also be found as a minority in the province.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.yodisphere.com/2022/09/Kankanaey-Tribe-Culture.html?m=1 | title=The Kankanaey People of the Philippines: History, Culture, Customs and Tradition [Indigenous People | Cordillera Ethnic Tribes] }}</ref>
The Maranao had settled in the area long before the arrival of the Spaniards in the Philippines. Like other groups, they possess their own culture which makes them quite unique. Their language, customs, traditions, religion, social system, costumes, music, and other features are factors that make Lanao peculiar and distinct from other Philippine provinces.
The main languages are [[Maranao language|Maranao]], [[Cebuano language|Cebuano]], and [[Binukid language|Binukid]], with the latter being the native language of majority of the citizens of the province. Aside from this, Filipino (Tagalog) and English are understood and spoken.
===Religion===
According to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) report in 2020, [[Catholic Church in the Philippines|Roman Catholicism]] makeup for 47.30% of the population of Lanao del Norte while 74% are adherents of [[Islam in the Philippines|Islam]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Religious Affiliation in the Philippines (2020 Census of Population and Housing) {{!}} Philippine Statistics Authority {{!}} Republic of the Philippines |url=https://psa.gov.ph/content/religious-affiliation-philippines-2020-census-population-and-housing |access-date=2023-08-06 |website=psa.gov.ph}}</ref> Other religions include other denominations of Christianity, Buddhism and other beliefs.

==Politics and government==
Salvador T. Lluch was the first Governor of Lanao del Norte. Second was [[Mohammad Ali Dimaporo]], who ruled from January 1960 to September 1965 when he ran and won the congressional seat of the province. By operation of the law of succession, Vice Governor Arsenio A. Quibranza became the third Provincial Chief Executive of the province. By the mandate of the inhabitants, Quibranza was elected governor in 1967 and almost unanimously re-elected in 1971 and again in 1980.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Arguillas |first1=Carolyn |title=SPECIAL REPORT: The ruling clans of Mindanao: same families in 50 years, 25 years |url=https://www.mindanews.com/top-stories/2013/05/special-report-the-ruling-clans-of-mindanao-same-families-in-50-years-25-years/ |access-date=May 19, 2019 |agency=MindaNews |publisher=MindaNews |date=May 11, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Supreme Court G.R.

By virtue of the power and impact of the [[People Power Revolution]] on [[EDSA]] on February 25, 1986, local government all over the Philippines changed the political atmosphere overnight. Lanao del Norte became one among the many provinces affected by the sudden changes brought by the "Snap Election" in February 1986. Local heads of offices and employees particularly those holding political positions were removed but with the installation of President [[Corazon Aquino]] as president, OIC Atty. Francisco L. Abalos became the appointed governor of the province on March 3, 1986. On February 2, 1988, Abalos was elected as governor of the province.
In the synchronized National Election of May 11, 1992, Congressman Abdullah D. Dimaporo, a legislator, economist and son of Mohammad Ali Dimaporo, was elected Provincial Governor. The Provincial government embarked on a comprehensive planning and set the groundwork for the development of the province.
In the 1998 national and local elections, Imelda Quibranza-Dimaporo, wife of Governor Abdullah D. Dimaporo was elected as Provincial Governor until 2007, and from 2016 up to present.
The eldest son of former governor and now 2nd district representative Abdullah D. Dimaporo and Imelda Q. Dimaporo, Mohammad Khalid Q. Dimaporo entered the politics in the province from 2007 until 2016.<ref>{{cite news |title=THE LEADERS YOU VOTED: Lanao del Norte 1987 to 2019 |url=https://www.mindanews.com/elections-2019/2019/05/the-leaders-you-voted-lanao-del-norte-1987-to-2019/ |access-date=May 19, 2019 |agency=MindaNews |publisher=MindaNews |date=May 12, 2019}}</ref>

The province of [[Lanao (province)|Lanao]] existed from 1914 until 1959. In 1959, Republic Act No. 222 was passed by the Philippine Congress, partitioning Lanao into two provinces: Lanao del Norte and [[Lanao del Sur]].<ref name=ChanRobles-RA2228>{{cite web|title=Republic Act No. 2228 - An Act to Create the Provinces of Lanao del Norte and Lanao del Sur|url=http://www.chanrobles.com/republicacts/republicactno2228.html|website=Chan Robles Virtual Law Library|access-date=December 24, 2015}}</ref> The new province was inaugurated on July 4, with [[Iligan City]] as its capital.
The province then consisted of the municipalities of Baloi, Kauswagan, Bacolod, Maigo, Kolambugan, Tubod, Baroy, Lala, Kapatagan, Karomatan and the following municipal districts that got converted into regular municipalities of Matungao, Pantao Ragat, Munai, Tangcal, and Nunungan.
In 1977, President [[Ferdinand E. Marcos]] signed Resolution No. 805, s. 1977 of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (''Parliamentary Bill No. 586'') sponsored by Assemblyman Abdullah D. Dimaporo, into Presidential Decree 181 transferring the province's capital from [[Iligan City]] to the municipality of [[Tubod, Lanao del Norte|Tubod]].
In October 1984, inaugural ceremonies were held to celebrate the occasion of the transfer of the Provincial Capitol from Poblacion, Tubod to the Don Mariano Marcos Government Center (now Governor Arsenio A. Quibranza Provincial Government Center) at Pigcarangan, in Tubod.
Despite the outbreak of the conflict of the [[Moro Islamic Liberation Front|MILF]] led by Abdullah [[Commander Bravo]] Goldiano Macapaar bin Sabbar and the [[Armed Forces of the Philippines|Philippine Army]] in [[Kauswagan]] in March 2000, through the provincial government's effort, peace and order was restored in the province.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Gallardo |first1=Froilan |title=Clash between soldiers, MILF averted in Lanao del Norte |url=https://www.mindanews.com/top-stories/2012/11/clash-between-soldiers-milf-averted-in-lanao-del-norte/ |access-date=May 19, 2019 |agency=MindaNews |publisher=MindaNews |date=November 16, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=2 Lanao Norte towns under attack by suspected MILF |url=https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/news/regions/114349/2-lanao-norte-towns-under-attack-by-suspected-milf/story/ |access-date=May 19, 2019 |agency=GMA News |date=August 18, 2008}}</ref>
In 2018, the Bangsamoro Organic Law was passed into law; this law provided for the establishment of a new [[Bangsamoro]] [[autonomous region]] to replace the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao. According to this law, the six municipalities of Munai, Tagoloan, Pantar, Baloi, Tangcal, and Nunungan would be incorporated into this new region should a majority of voters in both the affected municipality and the parent province vote in favor of inclusion of the aforementioned municipalities in the proposed autonomous region in a plebiscite.

The people in Lanao del Norte are a mixture of Maranaos and Cebuanos, with some [[Zamboangueño people|Zamboangueños]], [[Tausug people|Tausugs]], [[Yakan people|Yakan]], and [[Sama-Bajau people|Sama-Bajau]]. Historically, immigrants who came from the Christian provinces of Mindanao, Visayas and Luzon tended to settle in the northern part of Lanao while the Maranaos inhabited the south. There are also a minority of Higaonons settling in the hinterlands of Iligan. [[Kankanaey people|Kankanaey]], an ethnic group from the [[Cordillera Administrative Region|Cordilleras]] in [[Luzon]], can also be found as a minority in the province.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.yodisphere.com/2022/09/Kankanaey-Tribe-Culture.html?m=1 | title=The Kankanaey People of the Philippines: History, Culture, Customs and Tradition [Indigenous People | Cordillera Ethnic Tribes] }}</ref>
The Maranao had settled in the area long before the arrival of the Spaniards in the Philippines. Like other groups, they possess their own culture which makes them quite unique. Their language, customs, traditions, religion, social system, costumes, music, and other features are factors that make Lanao peculiar and distinct from other Philippine provinces.
The main languages are [[Maranao language|Maranao]], [[Cebuano language|Cebuano]], and [[Binukid language|Binukid]], with the latter being the native language of majority of the citizens of the province. Aside from this, Filipino (Tagalog) and English are understood and spoken.
===Religion===
According to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) report in 2020, [[Catholic Church in the Philippines|Roman Catholicism]] makeup for 47.30% of the population of Lanao del Norte while 50% are adherents of [[Islam in the Philippines|Islam]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Religious Affiliation in the Philippines (2020 Census of Population and Housing) {{!}} Philippine Statistics Authority {{!}} Republic of the Philippines |url=https://psa.gov.ph/content/religious-affiliation-philippines-2020-census-population-and-housing |access-date=2023-08-06 |website=psa.gov.ph}}</ref> Other religions include other denominations of Christianity, Buddhism and other beliefs.

==Politics and government==
Salvador T. Lluch was the first Governor of Lanao del Norte. Second was [[Mohammad Ali Dimaporo]], who ruled from January 1960 to September 1965 when he ran and won the congressional seat of the province. By operation of the law of succession, Vice Governor Arsenio A. Quibranza became the third Provincial Chief Executive of the province. By the mandate of the inhabitants, Quibranza was elected governor in 1967 and almost unanimously re-elected in 1971 and again in 1980.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Arguillas |first1=Carolyn |title=SPECIAL REPORT: The ruling clans of Mindanao: same families in 50 years, 25 years |url=https://www.mindanews.com/top-stories/2013/05/special-report-the-ruling-clans-of-mindanao-same-families-in-50-years-25-years/ |access-date=May 19, 2019 |agency=MindaNews |publisher=MindaNews |date=May 11, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Supreme Court G.R.

By virtue of the power and impact of the [[People Power Revolution]] on [[EDSA]] on February 25, 1986, local government all over the Philippines changed the political atmosphere overnight. Lanao del Norte became one among the many provinces affected by the sudden changes brought by the "Snap Election" in February 1986. Local heads of offices and employees particularly those holding political positions were removed but with the installation of President [[Corazon Aquino]] as president, OIC Atty. Francisco L. Abalos became the appointed governor of the province on March 3, 1986. On February 2, 1988, Abalos was elected as governor of the province.
In the synchronized National Election of May 11, 1992, Congressman Abdullah D. Dimaporo, a legislator, economist and son of Mohammad Ali Dimaporo, was elected Provincial Governor. The Provincial government embarked on a comprehensive planning and set the groundwork for the development of the province.
In the 1998 national and local elections, Imelda Quibranza-Dimaporo, wife of Governor Abdullah D. Dimaporo was elected as Provincial Governor until 2007, and from 2016 up to present.
The eldest son of former governor and now 2nd district representative Abdullah D. Dimaporo and Imelda Q. Dimaporo, Mohammad Khalid Q. Dimaporo entered the politics in the province from 2007 until 2016.<ref>{{cite news |title=THE LEADERS YOU VOTED: Lanao del Norte 1987 to 2019 |url=https://www.mindanews.com/elections-2019/2019/05/the-leaders-you-voted-lanao-del-norte-1987-to-2019/ |access-date=May 19, 2019 |agency=MindaNews |publisher=MindaNews |date=May 12, 2019}}</ref>
