History
The municipality was originally created as Don Mariano Marcos by virtue of Batas Pambansa Blg. 171 which was approved on February 8, 1982. Parts of seven municipalities in the province had been detached to be constituted into a new, distinct municipality. Those separated were barangays in Tudela (3) including Tuno which was designated the seat of government, Jimenez (also 3), Bonifacio (2), Clarin and Sinacaban (one in each); as well as sitios in a barangay each in Panaon and Aloran, situated on the side of the Mount Malindang Range. A plebiscite for ratification, along with ten more newly created local entities, was held on May 17, coinciding with the barangay elections.
It was later renamed to its present-day one, officially as Don Victoriano, It was named in honor of a native of Jimenez who served as councilor of Plaridel and eventually, the first mayor of this municipality. Recent documents such as on Commission on Elections and the Philippine Statistics Authority use Don Victoriano Chiongbian while Commission on Audit, the local government and subsequent laws such as Republic Act No. 7329, 9692, 10017 use Don Victoriano.
