Geography

The Abra originates in the southern section of Mount Data. It descends westward to Cervantes, Ilocos Sur, and flows into Abra province. At a point near the municipality of Dolores, it is joined by the Tineg River, which originates in the uplands of Abra.[3]

gollark: Hold on, I can probably make a much nicer one.
gollark: It's kind of bad.
