The Kapampangans or Capampan͠gans (in Spanish: Pampangos or Pampangueños) are the sixth largest Filipino ethnolinguistic group, numbering about 2,890,000. The original Kapampangans may have descended from Austronesian-speaking immigrants to Luzon during the Iron Age.
The province of Pampanga is traditional homeland of the Kapampangans. Once occupying a vast stretch of land that extended from Tondo[1] to the rest of Central Luzon, huge chunks of territories were carved out of Pampanga so as to create the provinces of Bulacan, Bataan, Nueva Ecija, Aurora and Tarlac.[2] As a result, Kapampangans now populate a region that extends beyond the political boundaries of the small province of Pampanga. In the province of Tarlac, the indigenous population of Tarlac City and the municipalities of Bamban, Capas and Concepcion are Kapampangans, while the municipalities of Victoria, La Paz, [have a considerable Kapampangan population. In Bataan, Kapampangans populate the municipilaties of Dinalupihan and Hermosa, and the barangays of Mabatang in Abucay and Calaguiman in Samal. Kapampangans can be found scattered all across the southern barrios of Cabiao in the province of Nueva Ecija and in the western section of the province of Bulacan. Kapampangan enclaves still exist in Tondo and other parts of the National Capital Region. Kapampangans have also migrated to Mindoro, Palawan and Mindanao and have formed strong Kapampangan organizations called aguman in Davao City and General Santos City. Agumans based in the US and Canada are currently active in the revival of the Kapampangan language and culture.[citation needed]
The Kapampangans have produced many Rajahs, Datus, three Philippine presidents, three chief justices, a senate president, the first Filipino cardinal, one Huk Supremo, many Huk Commanders and NPA cadres and many personalities in public service, education, diplomacy, journalism, the arts and sciences, entertainment and business.

@fbgemino na ilagay ko po diyan ay "Kapampangan Old Territory," "Kapampangan Region" "La Pampanga" "Kingdom of Tondo" Dahil po noon Ang Luzon ay Kapampangan ang Major Language niya katulad ngayon Ay Tagalog. at Malinaw po sa Kasaysayan ng Bansa ang Bulacan Zambales Bataan Tarlac Nueva Ecija Pangasinan Hangang sa Nueva Vescaya ay naging Part ng Kapampangan Region o masasabi nating Sakop sila ng Luzon Empire na ang kinililalang pinaka mataas na Lakan ay ang LAKAN ng Tundun o Tondo ngayon
