It is also recognised as one of the most tolerant and peaceful cities in Indonesia.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Onker |first=Michelle de |title=Wali Kota Kaget Manado Jadi Kota Paling Toleran di Indonesia |url=https://news.detik.com/berita/d-3738987/wali-kota-kaget-manado-jadi-kota-paling-toleran-di-indonesia |access-date=2023-03-23 |website=detiknews |language=id-ID}}</ref>

==Etymology==
The name Manado is derived from the [[Sangir language]] word ''manaro'', meaning 'on the far coast' or 'in the distance', and originally referred to the further of two islands which can be seen from the mainland.  When the settlement on this island was relocated to the mainland, the name Manado was brought with it, after which the island itself became referred to as [[Manado Tua]] (Old Manado).<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Makaliwe |first=Willem Hendrik |date=1981 |title=A preliminary note on genealogy and intermarriage in the Minahasa regency, North Sulawesi |journal=Journal of the Humanities and Social Sciences of Southeast Asia |volume=137 |issue=2–3 |pages=244–258 |doi=10.1163/22134379-90003499 |issn=0006-2294|doi-access=free }}</ref> The name for Manado in the [[Sangir language]] is ''Manaro'', while in [[Gorontalo language|Gorontalo]] is ''Moladu''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.hulondalo.id/daerah/pr-9647184130/tour-de-moladu-marten-jangan-sangkut-pautkan-dengan-politik|title=Tour De Moladu, Marten: Jangan Sangkut Pautkan dengan Politik|website=hulondalo.id|access-date=2024-05-12}}</ref>

==History==
The first mention of Manado comes from a world map by French cartographer [[Nicolas Desliens]], which shows the island of Manarow (today's Manado Tua). Before Europeans arrived in [[North Sulawesi]], the area was under the rule of the [[Sultan of Ternate]], who exacted tribute and introduced [[Islam]] to its inhabitants. The Portuguese made the Sultan their vassal, ruling over the [[Minahasa]] people, and establishing a factory in [[Wenang]].

Meanwhile, the Spanish had already set themselves up in the [[Philippines]] and Minahasa was used to plant coffee because of its rich soil. Manado was further developed by Spain as a centre of commerce for the Chinese traders who traded the coffee in China. With the help of native allies, the Spanish took over the Portuguese fortress in Amurang in the 1550s, and Spanish settlers also established a fort at Manado, so that eventually, Spain controlled all of the Minahasa. It was in Manado where one of the first [[Indo people|Indo-Eurasian]] (Mestizo) communities in the archipelago developed during the 16th century.<ref>Wahr, C.R. [http://www.theminahasa.net/history/timeline/index02.html  Minahasa (history) Website] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724100721/http://www.theminahasa.net/history/timeline/index02.html |date=24 July 2011 }}</ref> The first King of Manado (1630) named Muntu Untu was in fact the son of a Spanish Mestizo.<ref>Wahr, C. R. [http://www.theminahasa.net/history/timeline/index05.html  Minahasa (history) Website] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130521011233/http://www.theminahasa.net/history/timeline/index05.html |date=21 May 2013 }}</ref>

[[File:AMH-4680-NA Map of the area around Menado.jpg|left|thumb|upright|Map of Manado in 1679]]
Spain renounced its possessions in Minahasa by means of a treaty with the Portuguese in return for a payment of 350,000 ducats.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Oriental commerce: containing a geographical description of the principal places in the East Indies, China, and Japan, with their produce, manufactures, and trade|url=https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.181513|author=Milburn, William|year=1813|publisher=Black, Parry & Co|location=New York|pages=[https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.181513/page/n542 406]}}</ref> Minahasan natives made an alliance treaty with the Dutch, and expelled the last of the Portuguese from Manado a few years later.

The [[Dutch East India Company]] or Verenigde Oost Indische Compagnie (VOC) built a fortress in Manado named Fort Amsterdam in 1658. As with regions in eastern Indonesia, Manado has undergone Christianisation by Dutch missionaries, including Riedel and John Gottlieb Schwarz. The Dutch missionaries built the first Christian church in Manado called Oude Kerk (Old church), which still stands, and is now called Gereja Sentrum. [[Carron (1792 ship)|HMS ''Dover'']] captured Manado in June 1810. The Javanese prince [[Diponegoro]] was exiled to Manado by the Dutch government in 1830 for leading a war of rebellion against the Dutch. In 1859, the English biologist [[Alfred Wallace]] visited Manado and praised the town for its beauty.

[[File:Coat of Arms of Manado (1931).svg|thumb|140px|Coat of Arms of Manado during Dutch colonial era, granted in 1931.]]
In 1919, the Apostolic Prefecture of Celebes was established in the [[City status in Indonesia|city]]. In 1961, it was promoted to the [[Diocese of Manado]].

The Japanese captured Manado in the [[Battle of Manado]] in January 1942.<ref>{{Cite web|first=Klemen|last=L|url=https://warfare.gq/dutcheastindies/menado.html|title=The Fall of Menado, January 1942|date=1999–2000|work=Forgotten Campaign: The Dutch East Indies Campaign 1941–1942}}</ref> The city was heavily damaged by [[Allies of World War II|Allied]] bombing during [[World War II]].

In 1958, the headquarters of the rebel movement [[Permesta]] was moved to Manado. When Permesta confronted the central government with demands for political, economic and regional reform, Jakarta responded by bombing the city in February 1958, and then invading in June 1958.

In 1962, the People's Representative Council declared Manado as the official capital city of North Sulawesi Province.

==Climate==
