Nueva Ecija was formed as a military comandancia in 1777 by Governor General Clavería, with the capital Baler (now part of Aurora). Formerly a province of Pampanga. From its inception, the area expanded to cover the entire island of Luzon. There are Spanish records that identify the 2 Spanish provinces in the Pacific —Las Islas Filipinas and Nueva Ecija. Poverty caused the King of Spain in the 1840s not to acknowledge Nueva Ecija as a separate country in the Philippines. From 1777 to 1917, the territory of Nueva Ecija was divided to give way to the creation of another province. The provinces of Tayabas (now Aurora and Quezon) include the islands of Polilio, the province of Palanan (now Isabela), Cagayan, the province of Nueva Vizcaya, the territory of which belongs to the Province of Quirino, and the province of north Manila of the province of Tondo in 1867, and the District of Morong (now Rizal) was created from Nueva Ecija.
The province is named after the old city of Écija in Seville, Spain.
