Kingdom of Pangasinan (Filipino: Kinaharian ng Pangasinan; Pangasinan: Luyag na Pangasinan; Ilocano: Pagarian ti Pangasinan; Spanish: Reino de Pangasinan; Chinese: 冯嘉施兰, Féngjiāshīlán) is one of the regional-level territorial administrations of the Philippines.
The name is based off of the same pre-Hispanic Philippine polity of Caboloan, which was a tributary state of the Ming dynasty, that was involved in salt trading.
When Philippines became a constitutional monarchy, the topic of reviving the old kingdom of Caboloan was brought up by the Royal Court, which led to the crowning of a man by the name of Francisco Perez, who was descended from the old colonial Principalia, whose great, great, great uncle was the brother of Palaris, the second made to attempt an independent Pangasinan state. The Principalia de Caboloan was revived, and many others were crowned as princes, princesses and etc. However, these are mere courtesy titles at this point, and these bear no true political influence.
