The term "Moro" refers to a group of Muslim communities in the Philippines, primarily found in the southern region of Mindanao. These communities have a rich cultural heritage, with unique traditions, languages, and practices that distinguish them from the predominantly Christian population in the country. The Moros have a long history of resistance against colonization and have sought to preserve their identity and autonomy. Historically, the Moros have faced various challenges, including conflicts with the Philippine government over land and political rights. Efforts for peace and autonomy have led to the establishment of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), which aims to provide self-governance and promote development in the region.
