In 1941, a few days before the Japanese entered<br />
Manila, President Quezon declared Quezon City a part<br />
of Greater Manila. Quezon City remained as part of the<br />
Greater Manila until January 2, 1947, when its separate<br />
political existence was restored by Republic Act No. 45.<br />
The City of Greater Manila<br />
was created by President<br />
Quezon on January 1, 1942<br />
as an emergency measure.<br />
