History: | The Philippines has a rich history shaped by migrations, colonial influences, and cultural exchanges. Initially inhabited by Negritos, Austronesians, and other indigenous peoples, the archipelago became a hub of trade with neighboring Asian cultures. Spanish colonization began in 1565, introducing Christianity and uniting the islands under a single government. After over 300 years of Spanish rule, the country briefly became a colony of the United States in 1898 following the Spanish-American War. The Philippines gained independence on July 4, 1946, after Japanese occupation during World War II. Today, it is a democratic republic with a diverse cultural heritage. |
