what i dislike about this was they portrayed the rise of Philippine republic or Malolos republic like it's a magic, like we just appear and take over when in reality were still fighting but were clearing up the Philippine for smooth take over, to established a legitimate government a "REPUBLIC" ruled by Filipinos and for the Filipinos only no foreign had no rights to rule over us not anyone except us.

He returned for the American and European POWs not for the Filipinos. During the Battle of Manila he didn't even care if Filipino civilians died from their carpet bombing. That battle caused the death of 250,000 civilians.
It’s sad that most Americans don’t even know that the Philippines was in fact an Americann territory at one point and it’s sad that it’s not taught that much in school

actually the Philippine army of the 1st republic had guns given aid by america before against spain problem is the president aguinaldo camp have internal power struggles ended gen lunas death the only general they had that can go head to head with Gen Arthur MacArthur and gen otis
better read more history books. prior to pack of biac n bato president aguinaldo acquired guns and cannons. (battle of binakayan). Aguinaldo did not order to kill gen. luna but his guards men did it because of so much anger. stop watching to much movies better read books. Aguinaldo collaboration with japs are token of appreciation for the japanese help in aguinaldo's battle against the Spanish. while gen. luna was captive in jail and screaming he was a loyal son of spain.
@@RiestianGunday true and bec of internal politics the lost the war generals oitis and aruthur macarthur gen luna was the only REAL obstacle they killed the only general they had
The Constitution of the Commonwealth of the Philippines provided for a presidential system of government with a unicameral legislature. It had the power to enact laws for the Philippines, known as Commonwealth Acts, through the National Assembly. The U.S. government granted independence to the Philippines on July 4, 1946. In accordance with the Philippine Independence Act (more popularly known as the "Tydings-McDuffie Act"), President Harry S. Truman issued Proclamation 2695 of July 4, 1946 officially recognizing the independence of the Philippines.
The video was very dissatisfying but i get it it's a oversimplified, i am just underwhelmed about the Malolos republic, American content creator like this act like, they just take over in a snap of a finger, no fighting, like in his map there's federal state of visayas, he was unsuccessful by not mentioning about the revolution in the region in Zamboanga, the sieges take place and visualize how the Filipino revolutionary take over the country except manila after the defeat of Spain to US, hello Spain was having the worst time, both losing to colonial Philippines and America but of course it was more on America because they prefer to surrender to them instead of Filipinos because that would be an humiliating the most that a colonial power defeat them, which them their glory their ego can't take despite of the time.
Hence, the Republic of the Philippines (Republika ng Pilipinas). Today, this country faces issues that's why we're not developed yet but I am manifesting for the development of this country. Might take long but we'll get there. Thank you for those people who are not involving themselves in discriminating us Filipinos. Thank you for those who are wishing to travel in the Philippines.
Agreed it's been a gradual climb but everytime I return to Cebu you can see more people are prospering it used to take us 20 min to get to my wife's family homes now because more people can afford car's the congested roads it takes us 40 min to get to upper busay also their are many more big buildings in Cebu city when years ago the only one was Marco polo building
you can bot blame the usa who held you for only 50 years when the spanish had the phillipines held you for way longer and also we saved you in ww2 and also founded your special forces… we did more good than bad. we even respected you enough to make your independence day on the 4th of july like ours was…
To make the Philippines progress there are two major problems that must be overcome: rampant corruption and the political dynasties that like things exactly as they are now and no change!
@chrisvibz4753 As a Fillipino-American He was just saying the Philippines is not in the best position right now. Also it's kinda rude to make someone's independence day all about you
Thank you for your educational history, we love you and I hope everyone knows now that once , long long time ago Philippines was an American territory, and until now , that explains why Pilipinos love America, until now and it always remains on our heart, I myself as a Pilipino American, very proud of our history, together as one forever, long live, the Pilipino and Americans
Yo, The Battle of Leyte Gulf in 1944 was the largest naval battle in tonnage for sure. But a rival for largest number of participants in a single naval battle is the Battle of Ecnomus in 256BCE during the First Punic War. Anywhere up to 290,000 marines and sailors did stabby time in their fancy leather derps and shiny hats.

1. Philippines didn't need to be civilized or christianized. The Spanish colonial government did that beforehand with great success. 2. US government established a legal system based on the American system, i.e. adversarial rather than inquisitorial, and stare decisis for legal jurisprudence, though limitations were evident. We still continue to use Civil Law than Common Law. There were no jury system earnestly established as held US v Dorr, 2 Phil 269, and citing Downes v Bidwell, 182 US 244. 3. Philippines wasn't put on 'a type of territorial government' which denotes that US had never intended to make the Islands a territory, creating a benevolent Federal government. The 1898 Treaty of Paris and the promulgation of Philippine Organic Act expressly state that the Islands are US territory. Never was it mentioned of a gradual independent Philippines. If independence for the Islands were the intent, the wording of the those legal document earlier mentioned would have been similar to that of Cuba. It was only the growing unpopularity of the Occupation by the Americans such as Teddy Roosevelt and Mark Twain, and our Philippine Resident Commissioners to the US Congress did we successfully convince an independent Philippines. 4. The Philippine Commonwealth Army was not just integrated. It was FEDERALIZED by FD Roosevelt in preparation for a war with Japan. ADDENDUM It is fit for US to atleast recognized Filipinos serving in the then Philippine Commonwealth Army, then a FEDERALIZED militia, not just those serving in the Philippine Scouts, what they duly deserve. They have fought bravely and with distinction.
Right on. A lot of Filipinos and fellow Americans too believed the myth that we came to liberate the natives from Spain. What bunk. We were there to take over all the Spanish territories in Caribbean and the Pacific. We should not have granted the Philippines independence and kept it to be a future state. China would never had been a rival like it is now. Nor would they have fallen to communism. But no, the Philippines was devastated second only to Poland in destruction after WW2. So the politicians treated our former territory like a war burden ignoring the thousands of US Army national guardsmen who fought and died there. Also blind siding the statehood movement getting traction by Filipinos.
1. This is ensured with a heavy burden for native officials and their dependencies On the addendum, the Commonwealth President Quezon had tasked Doug McArthur to form a territorial militia to assist the stationed Philippine regular Army. This difficult task was delegated by McArthur to Brigadier General George Ike Eisenhower
at 9:44, even though McArthur had personal attachment to their colony Philippines, the agreement/approval to retake Philippines is to cut the Imperial Japan of its SEA supply. the Imperial US' army & navy had on some occasion wherein they didnt meet eye-to-eye. the navy citing risk concern & of course the army could not launch an attack without air cover from the navy
@@ianendangan7462 yeah u call that personal & MCArthur's reason is not the reason why everyone agreed to invade Philippines but its strategic importance for the IJ
@@leexingha McArthur grew up in the Philippines. Remember? His dad was appointed the 1st governor. Many of the USA presidents and senators were already governors and representative of the islands before they became president of the USA. Roosevelt was just a secretary of McArthur. Find that clip.😢
it is just a reason to suck up natural resources, this time the EU powers were into Oriental Colonies. USA had none so the sought to be one of the big boys so they invaded the Philippines
Simeón Ola y Arboleda (September 2, 1865 - February 14, 1952) is a hero of the Philippine Revolution and was the last general of the Philippines to surrender to the American forces after the Philippine-American War on Sept. 25, 1903 At least two potential problems surrounded Ola as the last general to surrender to the American forces. First, he had surrendered earlier on July 5, 1901, as an officer (major) of Vito Belarmino. Second, his role as a zone commander is not mentioned in Miguel Malvar's statement on the condition of his command that he provided in December 1901. Nor was any documentation of his commission as general preserved. Though it was said that this was done intentionally to prevent him from being recaptured and to continue the fight using guerilla tactics

Mentioning McKinley wanted to Christianize the Philippines without mentioning it was majority Catholic for centuries before that leaves out some important context
After ww1 amd the abandonment of the the anglo japanese alliance, pulling out of the Phillipines would allowed the japanese to fill the vacuum, something they attempted in world war 2
Japan occupied the Philippines as it will cause them trouble when the US imposed oil embargo and the Japanese had their sights in the oil fields of Dutch East Indies today's Indonesia. They also attacked Malay Peninsula aka British and French Indochina aka today Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia.
Good video, but why did you not mention the actions of the Unites States Forced in the Philippines (USFIP) under Colonel (self-promoted to Brigadier General) Wendell Fertig? A huge part of the reason the Japanese were never able to completely subdue Mindanao was because of the leadership of Col Fertig and his forces.
Man the Filipino in the Philippines American war was equipped with guns bough form Hong Kong And u said the Filipino were using bow spear well that’s kinda right u see they use bow and spear during the revolution and not the Philippines American war

Weren’t they already Christian’s under Spain? I lived there 5 yrs as a kid and noticed they were Catholics like Spain 🇪🇸 not Protestant like most of America 🇺🇸 😊
Maybe it was intended as a slap in the face to Spain, since the U.S. had just finished fighting them. As in, they had hundreds of years to Christianize The Philippines and failed.
What is it with Americans surnamed MacArthur and the Philippines?! Anyhow, the influence of US culture is hard to over emphasise. I recall that until Mt Pinatubo ate it in 1991, the US Clark Air Force Base's presence was such that, like Okinawa in Japan, US cultural rub off was notable. You listen to any local Filipino speak English and the American influence is stark. Cool docco guys. I'm surprised to read in the comments that US Filipinos note that it's not discussed in schools etc.
Arthur MacArthur was Douglas MacArthurs dad. They both held office in the Filipino commonwealth as military governors from what I recall. I guess the Philippines rubbed off on them
@@Endwankery I shall return. You heard that promise? McArthur grew up there and his dad was the first governor. He was then hired by the Philippine to to become a military advisor in the islands. You people don't know nothing. I have families in both countries both working civilians and military. My late grandfather farm was once used as an Airforce runway of the USA. It was returned to us after WW II. Now the AFP wants to buy it again in preparation of the Chinese ambition like Japan. Don't assume, ask them folks in the islands.
@@EndwankeryArthur Mc is the 2nd military governor-general of the American Philippines made during Teddy Roosevelt's presidency, in which the Commonwealth is proclaimed and inaugurated only in the 1930s during FDR's presidency
I observe something wrong in the part of the Philippines-American War, according to the Generals like Artemio Ricarte that the Philippines Revolutionary Army have guns most are Spanish Mausers and they even was able to buy guns in Hong kong. The problem with First Republic is that it has a standard army, the problem are supplies and strategy. They cannot fight the United States head on that is why it was recommended by Heneral Luna before that they shift to Guerilla Warfare the one that opposed it? It was Mabini who was obssessed with the notion that a Nation should have a standing army. That lead to countless disaster however.
The Treaty of Paris (1898) officially ended the period of Spanish colonization in the Philippines and granted possession of Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines to the United States. It also required that the United States pay $20 million USD in recompense to the Spanish government. TThe Battle of Manila (Filipino: Labanan sa Maynila; Spanish: Batalla de Manila), sometimes called the Mock Battle of Manila, was a land engagement which took place in Manila on August 13, 1898, at the end of the Spanish-American War, four months after the decisive victory by Commodore Dewey's President McKinley's statement of benevolent assimilation became his justification for the annexation of Philippines. McKinley cites the intentions of the United States not as a conqueror but one that will help uplift the Filipino peoples.
In short the bet ray Aguinaldo by hoping them a recognition of their fought hard independence and granted them full autonomy of their country WITH their own established government.
A lot of commenters are simping for American Imperialism as if the Filipinos weren't already civilized before the Americans took over. The rights of the Filipinos were disrespected and culture erased. This wasn't a "Benevolent Assimilation" it was coerced under duress. Their native language was suppressed and labor exploitation was rampant in the colony. No one should ever be grateful for being colonized. Nations could thrive without foreign takeover.
Dude you skipped MOST of the discussion of the US taking control of the PH and the VAST AMOUNT of debate, disagreement with the notion, the fact that OTHER growing powers in Europe were STILL taking control of lands around the world, etc..................... You saying that the whole notion of the US taking control of the PH was a 20 mil payment ignores what happened in the US govt before this ever happened and it's disgraceful. It's also insulting and plays to the ignorance of your channel's followers. I got to the end of the first minute, see it's propaganda and move on.
Initially, before the annexation of the Philippines, many Americans were for the US to become an Empire the way Britain, France, Netherlands, and Spain were. However, the Filipinos fought so hard for their independence. The war became so brutal that the US lost its appetite for conquest. The United States could have took over many of the British and French territories after WW2, but it no longer had those ambitions. The experience in the Philippines was instructive in formulating the policies for the occupation of Germany and Japan.
the "200 civilian casualties" weren't cause by diseases but by direct warfare and civilian casualties cause by diseases, famine and the bad treatment in the concentration camps could be up to 1 million
A lot of country hating on US..but the US made the Pinoy Americans the most 2nd successful race after Indians,here... US really loved Pinoys...and a lot of Pinoys served US navy and military..friends forever and protector against China
I can't believe we are now in the 5th Philippine Republic. *1st Republic (1899 - following the 1896 Revolution and Independence from Spain) *Commonwealth of the Philippines (1935 During American Colonization) *2nd Republic (1942 - aka Japanese Sponsored Republic / Puppet Republic- WWII) *3rd Republic (1946 - Philippine Independence from USA) *4th Republic (1981 following Martial Declaration in 1972) *5th Republic (1986 following the People Power Revolution and ouster of the Marcos Dictatorship) We are now in the 19th Congress of the Philippines Yet, we are still going to see real reform and development for this god forsaken country.
What do you expect a country born in one day?? There are 100 million filipinos now... Big change is not made when you make whimsical promise and action after two seconds Try making a promise of a simple sandwich to ten people how long it takes to make a difference... People differ in opinion they lash out, they kill they complain, they threaten, they criticize, they reject.... Today I can assure you one person in your own house differs his/her idealogy to yours on various matters and you have no way of changing their minds..... And how will you impose that to 100 million filipinos????????? Are you a god to demand a perfect society in a silver platter within a fingersnap?? Go back to your lucid dreams amigo.
It wasnt Hlasey who fought off the Japanese Center Force. He had fallen for their trcik and was chasing the carriers in the Northern decoy force. It was the individual ship commanders who acted on their own to fight off the IJN Center force. Then the US Battleships set a trap for the IJN Soutehrn force and destroyed them in Surigao straight.
@Knowledgia Don't deliberately skew the timeline of events and downplay the audience, whether to create the Filipinos as innocent or a true victim, the presentation stands without any context or written account or a month by month timeline. 3:44 - 4:00
It's hard to know who was right so many years after the fact and with the completely biased histories we tend to get, but I would definitely trust Warren Harding more than Woodrow Wilson...
Its a shame he didnt add some battles that occurs and the brutality of the war Aguinaldo didnt declare war on june it was on the 4th of february when the american had the first shot The first republic did had a good general during the war General Antonio luna though he was killed by aguinaldo's men
It is a revolutionary government that was formed after the spanish surrendered to Gen. Delgado and it in a sense a separate government from the Malolos government. In a sense, it was the Philippines earliest attempts at federalism as even though the FSV was a separate government, it still recognize the Malolos as the head of a federal government. Not sure if I am remembering correctly but the army of FSV at the time was the 2nd largest army during the FilAm War and the most well equipped one due to majority of the forces were all equipped by the spaniards before rebelling
Why can't I watch the Jacobite rising, this video is now for sponsors. You said that sponsors get access to videos before everyone else, but you didn’t say that some videos are exclusively now only for sponsors!😔😭
I just want to make some corrections and add some facts to your video: 1. The Philippines was only ever a republic once after the US granted it independence in 1946. Aguinoldo's faction declared the Philippines free in 1899 but no legitimate power recognized it. But plenty of important powers recognized America's right to rule the region. 2. The Filipino insurgents were not united during their rebellion against the US and a huge factor for the US being able to insert control. There were several competing insurgent factions and none of them wanted to share power with one another. 3. Aguinoldo was a brutal warlord who tyrannized his own people to the point that they betrayed him to the US. He in turn, switched sides and aligned himself with the US as an informant because if he "could not rule the Philippines" then none of his fellow Filipino rivals could. 4. Filipino insurgents did as much scorch earth tactics as the Americans did which resulted to thousands of civilians dying too.
You are on point. The mother narrative about “Philippine History” is to create unifying myth. The Tagalog rebels against Spain composed of 8 Tagalog provinces did not overthrow Spain. There was no surrender of sovereign power to any “Filipino Republic” by Spain. The Tagalog rebellion declaring independence from Spain was not recognized because they have no effective control of the Philippines. Spain did and sold it to the US. The non Tagalog people of other islands have no desire to rebel against Spain but eventually did because of the power vacuum which ensued when Spain lost to the US and to keep the collected taxes from getting into the hands of the Tagalog rebels in need of finances.
Wrong. America did not civilize and christianize the Philippines. Americans massacred Filipinos during the colonialization, Phil-American War, and exploited its natural resources from mining of gold and other minerals. Abandoned immediately after ww2 when Manila was badly and totally destroyed in the guise of granting independence while the Philippines was in the state of destruction.
US regretted buying Philipins. Bad investment. No good US business.Lazy people. Always drank, happy. Cockfight lover. Noisy 24/7. Cowards. Japans work, not drank. Fight to penish, no surrender. US afraid. Good investment. Good business, US profit many.
This is not taught neither in US classrooms nor Filipino classrooms - There is only one person who reached the rank of 5-star general (AKA Field Marshall) ranking in Philippine Army, and take note he is not a Filipino. That person is Gen. Douglas MacArthur, who is also a 5-star general in US Army. It only shows how Filipinos love MacArthur as he did not abandon the Philippines after his retreat during World War II, even in the middle of the war, he lobbied for the liberation of the Philippines in a contrary of suggestion of Admiral Nimitz to attack Formosa (Taiwan).
I recommend reading Brian McAllister Linn's book for a better understanding of the Philippine-American War (aka Philippine Insurrection). The First Republic was birthed from Aguinaldo's dictatorship government and was created be elites who didn't represent all the different people of the islands. A government that rather than bringing in like minded people, executed them (such as Bonifacio). This created a situation that made it easy for the Americans to gain the favor of local and regional leaders who were not under Aguinaldo's declared First Republic, which attempted to supplant them with his own chosen people.
As an Filipino, my ancestors fought for our independence, and I know that my country was betrayed by the US in the Philippines Revolution, but they help us fought the Spaniards, and if they didn't colonized us, the discovery of technology they give us is going to be much sooner
White American man, and listening, learning about this for the first time. May we all continue to move forward and hope for peace and independence for all.
Many Filipinos want to become Americans. Just look at the continuous population growth of Filipino Americans and constant migration of Filipinos towards the US. Many Filipinos really view the USA as a means for a better life and an escape from poverty. Many view that USA is the best country in the world 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@ianendangan7462 i think that is partly the reason. But what about the underlying reason why their relatives are there in the first place? I have encountered many FilAms who would comment on their family members in the Philippines and would tell them “Come with us here in America, life is so much better here, more opportunities, very progressive and more money” I believe many Filipino really see America as the best country in the world
Yeah, who doesn't love being colonized by the "best country in the world." The same colonialist clowns that claim to act in the name of Christianity and freedom. The hypocrisy!
We rebelled against the Spaniards and won. Declaring independence day by the short lived First Philippine republic. But then, the Americans defeated our patriotic heroes. Effect : our Constitution, government, 2nd language, military are influenced by the Americans.
Its officially said after the liberation of the Philippines from japan in ww2 is when we gained our independence but we technically beat the spainiards and the us instead of acknowledging our victory stole our glory 😤 Rip to my lolo he was a school teacher and guerilla fighter ww2, northern luzon
I think it's the resources.. but at least filipinos had been freed from slavery from 333 years of Spaniards colony since the United States bought the Philippines from Spain long time ago.. Filipinos should be grateful with that..
US and The Philippines fought a vicious war against each other. We both didn't like it and we both decided not to do it again. Together, we fought the Japanese. Since then, we have been brother nations. But, unlike China - Taiwan and Russia - Ukraine, each brother gets his own house.
I like how when the people of the territory wanted independence, the US government granted it. Can't imagine the same happening in Russia or China for instance.
Because they didn't want the Phils at all. They needed an outpost for their true interest since the 19th century, China. They maintained effective control through their two biggest military bases (& some smaller ones) and MNCs as a condition for independence, rather cheap than running a colony & helping with full restoration after the war.
We are warded from here by the influence of the Spanish invaders. Muslims who refused to convert were massacred. Even the city of Manila comes from amanilah. Muslims eventually fled south of minlake. Spanish people say that the people of Mindanao, south of Mindanao, were the most despicable of all, that moro said on minlake. Then the northmen tried to drive the moro's people out of her native land of Mindanao, this fools by the Spanish towards the Philippines.
What? The Americans defeated the Spaniards in the "Battle of the Bay"! And so the Spaniards have to surrender the Philippines that they take by force from the Philippines natives. Yeah the Americans paid Spain to settle and end the war.
“To Christianize them.” Funny that majority of the Filipinos that time were Catholics, and that’s the OG Christians compared to the protestants offshoots that were shipped off to the new world.
The so called revolution never came to fruition because it was mainly a Tagalog revolt. Filipinas as a nation was unheard of by macabebes of Pampanga and Bisayan people and even the igorots of the mountain. Was it good that US defeated the Moros in the south? Maybe... Filipinas as a nation didnt exist until recently, it was like Europe, divided by Spain by etnicity
The American Empire needs to grant independence to Guam and Puerto Rico just like the American Empire granted independence to the Philippines back in 1946ce.
Our Pilipino President asked American President for help due to Merciless Japanese invade Philippines.And America riply for help for the Pilipinos that cannot defend their ass against invader.
They were already Christians. Americans used protestantism to places where catholics are not established like in the Cordilleras, a place Spain influence is strongly resisted. Compared to catholism which is very strict in practicing their beliefs, protestants allow the natives to continue practice their culture and their way of life that's why it is accepted and gradually became Christians as well
That sounds disingenuous isn't it? It's the American narrative folks. They couldn't care less for our spiritual well-being. That should be accorded to the Spanish clergy for convincing the military-civilian authorities not to leave the Philippines early on their colonization because it's their Christian duty to convert the indios.
@@CCrux-ytthat was an executive order by President Macapagal in 1964. Prior to that it was July 4, 1946 from the USA. Anybody can declare independence but that does not make it real when the supposed independence from Spain was not recognized nor did it cover the entire Philippines. Only the rebelling Tagalog provinces. The Philippines that you inherited was not born from “revolution” but by being granted by the USA.
The Philippines should be trilingual: English, Tagalog and Spanish Filipinas debería ser trilingue: Ingles, Tagalo y Español Dapat trilingual ang Pilipinas: English, Tagalog at Spanish

problem is the president aguinaldo camp have internal power struggles ended gen lunas death the only general they had that can go head to head with Gen Arthur MacArthur and gen otis
better read more history books. prior to pack of biac n bato president aguinaldo acquired guns and cannons. (battle of binakayan). Aguinaldo did not order to kill gen. luna but his guards men did it because of so much anger. stop watching to much movies better read books. Aguinaldo collaboration with japs are token of appreciation for the japanese help in aguinaldo's battle against the Spanish. while gen. luna was captive in jail and screaming he was a loyal son of spain.

Thank you for Sharing God bless 😊
The Constitution of the Commonwealth of the Philippines provided for a presidential system of government with a unicameral legislature. It had the power to enact laws for the Philippines, known as Commonwealth Acts, through the National Assembly.
The U.S. government granted independence to the Philippines on July 4, 1946. In accordance with the Philippine Independence Act (more popularly known as the "Tydings-McDuffie Act"), President Harry S. Truman issued Proclamation 2695 of July 4, 1946 officially recognizing the independence of the Philippines.
Ef na ef e haha

The video was very dissatisfying but i get it it's a oversimplified, i am just underwhelmed about the Malolos republic, American content creator like this act like, they just take over in a snap of a finger, no fighting, like in his map there's federal state of visayas, he was unsuccessful by not mentioning about the revolution in the region in Zamboanga, the sieges take place and visualize how the Filipino revolutionary take over the country except manila after the defeat of Spain to US, hello Spain was having the worst time, both losing to colonial Philippines and America but of course it was more on America because they prefer to surrender to them instead of Filipinos because that would be an humiliating the most that a colonial power defeat them, which them their glory their ego can't take despite of the time.
Hence, the Republic of the Philippines (Republika ng Pilipinas). Today, this country faces issues that's why we're not developed yet but I am manifesting for the development of this country. Might take long but we'll get there. Thank you for those people who are not involving themselves in discriminating us Filipinos. Thank you for those who are wishing to travel in the Philippines.
Agreed it's been a gradual climb but everytime I return to Cebu you can see more people are prospering it used to take us 20 min to get to my wife's family homes now because more people can afford car's the congested roads it takes us 40 min to get to upper busay also their are many more big buildings in Cebu city when years ago the only one was Marco polo building
you can bot blame the usa who held you for only 50 years when the spanish had the phillipines held you for way longer and also we saved you in ww2 and also founded your special forces… we did more good than bad. we even respected you enough to make your independence day on the 4th of july like ours was…

It was a big mistake to have Independence with the USA.
The Gain is only for Corrupt Filipino Politicians.
1. Philippines didn't need to be civilized or christianized. The Spanish colonial government did that beforehand with great success.
2. US government established a legal system based on the American system, i.e. adversarial rather than inquisitorial, and stare decisis for legal jurisprudence, though limitations were evident. We still continue to use Civil Law than Common Law. There were no jury system earnestly established as held US v Dorr, 2 Phil 269, and citing Downes v Bidwell, 182 US 244.
3. Philippines wasn't put on 'a type of territorial government' which denotes that US had never intended to make the Islands a territory, creating a benevolent Federal government. The 1898 Treaty of Paris and the promulgation of Philippine Organic Act expressly state that the Islands are US territory. Never was it mentioned of a gradual independent Philippines. If independence for the Islands were the intent, the wording of the those legal document earlier mentioned would have been similar to that of Cuba. It was only the growing unpopularity of the Occupation by the Americans such as Teddy Roosevelt and Mark Twain, and our Philippine Resident Commissioners to the US Congress did we successfully convince an independent Philippines.
4. The Philippine Commonwealth Army was not just integrated. It was FEDERALIZED by FD Roosevelt in preparation for a war with Japan.
ADDENDUM
It is fit for US to atleast recognized Filipinos serving in the then Philippine Commonwealth Army, then a FEDERALIZED militia, not just those serving in the Philippine Scouts, what they duly deserve. They have fought bravely and with distinction.
Right on. A lot of Filipinos and fellow Americans too believed the myth that we came to liberate the natives from
Spain. What bunk. We were there to take over all the Spanish territories in Caribbean and the Pacific. We should not have granted the Philippines independence and kept it to be a future state. China would never had been a rival like it is now. Nor would they have fallen to communism. But no, the Philippines was devastated second only to Poland in destruction after WW2. So the politicians treated our former territory like a war burden ignoring the thousands of US Army national guardsmen who fought and died there. Also blind siding the statehood movement getting traction by Filipinos.
1. This is ensured with a heavy burden for native officials and their dependencies
On the addendum, the Commonwealth President Quezon had tasked Doug McArthur to form a territorial militia to assist the stationed Philippine regular Army. This difficult task was delegated by McArthur to Brigadier General George Ike Eisenhower
Thank for this information.😊
at 9:44, even though McArthur had personal attachment to their colony Philippines, the agreement/approval to retake Philippines is to cut the Imperial Japan of its SEA supply. the Imperial US' army & navy had on some occasion wherein they didnt meet eye-to-eye. the navy citing risk concern & of course the army could not launch an attack without air cover from the navy
Personal attachment? Maybe because of his very secret affair with a Filipina whom he brought to the US.
@@ianendangan7462 yeah u call that personal & MCArthur's reason is not the reason why everyone agreed to invade Philippines but its strategic importance for the IJ
@@leexingha
McArthur grew up in the Philippines. Remember? His dad was appointed the 1st governor. Many of the USA presidents and senators were already governors and representative of the islands before they became president of the USA. Roosevelt was just a secretary of McArthur. Find that clip.😢
@@suskagusip1036 doesnt matter because its not McArthur who gets to decide solely. i guess ur from PH due to lack of intelligence
Wasn't Philippines already Christianized by the time USA showed up?
Yes and until now it’s still the only country in Asia where over 90% of the population is predominantly Christian Roman catholics
Not the "right" Christian denomination Spain is catholic USA was mostly protestant
thestanleys3657 and Philippines still is too
it is just a reason to suck up natural resources, this time the EU powers were into Oriental Colonies. USA had none so the sought to be one of the big boys so they invaded the Philippines
@@european-one true I didn't mean to imply otherwise. But in the past such distinction we're deemed important
Simeón Ola y Arboleda (September 2, 1865 - February 14, 1952) is a hero of the Philippine Revolution and was the last general of the Philippines to surrender to the American forces after the Philippine-American War on Sept. 25, 1903
At least two potential problems surrounded Ola as the last general to surrender to the American forces.
First, he had surrendered earlier on July 5, 1901, as an officer (major) of Vito Belarmino.
Second, his role as a zone commander is not mentioned in Miguel Malvar's statement on the condition of his command that he provided in December 1901. Nor was any documentation of his commission as general preserved. Though it was said that this was done intentionally to prevent him from being recaptured and to continue the fight using guerilla tactics

Manila is the second most devasted city after WW2. After Warsaw in Poland.
Mentioning McKinley wanted to Christianize the Philippines without mentioning it was majority Catholic for centuries before that leaves out some important context
After ww1 amd the abandonment of the the anglo japanese alliance, pulling out of the Phillipines would allowed the japanese to fill the vacuum, something they attempted in world war 2
Japan occupied the Philippines as it will cause them trouble when the US imposed oil embargo and the Japanese had their sights in the oil fields of Dutch East Indies today's Indonesia. They also attacked Malay Peninsula aka British and French Indochina aka today Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia.

Weren’t they already Christian’s under Spain? I lived there 5 yrs as a kid and noticed they were Catholics like Spain 🇪🇸 not Protestant like most of America 🇺🇸 😊
Maybe it was intended as a slap in the face to Spain, since the U.S. had just finished fighting them. As in, they had hundreds of years to Christianize The Philippines and failed.
Not only Roman Catholic, also Eastern Orthodox Christians!
I'm saying it's possible the U.S. was rubbing salt in the wound after defeating Spain, not that Spain actually failed to spread Christianity.
What is it with Americans surnamed MacArthur and the Philippines?! Anyhow, the influence of US culture is hard to over emphasise. I recall that until Mt Pinatubo ate it in 1991, the US Clark Air Force Base's presence was such that, like Okinawa in Japan, US cultural rub off was notable. You listen to any local Filipino speak English and the American influence is stark. Cool docco guys. I'm surprised to read in the comments that US Filipinos note that it's not discussed in schools etc.

Good video.
I observe something wrong in the part of the Philippines-American War, according to the Generals like Artemio Ricarte that the Philippines Revolutionary Army have guns most are Spanish Mausers and they even was able to buy guns in Hong kong. The problem with First Republic is that it has a standard army, the problem are supplies and strategy. They cannot fight the United States head on that is why it was recommended by Heneral Luna before that they shift to Guerilla Warfare the one that opposed it? It was Mabini who was obssessed with the notion that a Nation should have a standing army. That lead to countless disaster however.
Yeah they have the weapons and supplies but the Army overall was undertrained and undisciplined.
Incredible.
The Treaty of Paris (1898) officially ended the period of Spanish colonization in the Philippines and granted possession of Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines to the United States. It also required that the United States pay $20 million USD in recompense to the Spanish government.
TThe Battle of Manila (Filipino: Labanan sa Maynila; Spanish: Batalla de Manila), sometimes called the Mock Battle of Manila, was a land engagement which took place in Manila on August 13, 1898, at the end of the Spanish-American War, four months after the decisive victory by Commodore Dewey's
President McKinley's statement of benevolent assimilation became his justification for the annexation of Philippines. McKinley cites the intentions of the United States not as a conqueror but one that will help uplift the Filipino peoples.
I don't think so. Americans looked down on Filipinos the same way Mexicans (during the galleon trade) /Spaniards looked down on us before.
In short the bet ray Aguinaldo by hoping them a recognition of their fought hard independence and granted them full autonomy of their country WITH their own established government.
Were very overshadowed of our effort of liberation thinking it's all American who did when it fact it's already happening since 1896.
@@ianendangan7462just like how Britain looked down on americans
A lot of commenters are simping for American Imperialism as if the Filipinos weren't already civilized before the Americans took over. The rights of the Filipinos were disrespected and culture erased. This wasn't a "Benevolent Assimilation" it was coerced under duress. Their native language was suppressed and labor exploitation was rampant in the colony. No one should ever be grateful for being colonized. Nations could thrive without foreign takeover.
0:03 Why is the Spanish flag like this?
Dude you skipped MOST of the discussion of the US taking control of the PH and the VAST AMOUNT of debate, disagreement with the notion, the fact that OTHER growing powers in Europe were STILL taking control of lands around the world, etc.....................
You saying that the whole notion of the US taking control of the PH was a 20 mil payment ignores what happened in the US govt before this ever happened and it's disgraceful. It's also insulting and plays to the ignorance of your channel's followers.
I got to the end of the first minute, see it's propaganda and move on.
Initially, before the annexation of the Philippines, many Americans were for the US to become an Empire the way Britain, France, Netherlands, and Spain were. However, the Filipinos fought so hard for their independence. The war became so brutal that the US lost its appetite for conquest. The United States could have took over many of the British and French territories after WW2, but it no longer had those ambitions. The experience in the Philippines was instructive in formulating the policies for the occupation of Germany and Japan.
the "200 civilian casualties" weren't cause by diseases but by direct warfare and civilian casualties cause by diseases, famine and the bad treatment in the concentration camps could be up to 1 million
This is the western military industrial complex version of history. The eras of conquest cast a bloody shadow
A lot of country hating on US..but the US made the Pinoy Americans the most 2nd successful race after Indians,here...
US really loved Pinoys...and a lot of Pinoys served US navy and military..friends forever and protector against China

It is a revolutionary government that was formed after the spanish surrendered to Gen. Delgado and it in a sense a separate government from the Malolos government. In a sense, it was the Philippines earliest attempts at federalism as even though the FSV was a separate government, it still recognize the Malolos as the head of a federal government.
Not sure if I am remembering correctly but the army of FSV at the time was the 2nd largest army during the FilAm War and the most well equipped one due to majority of the forces were all equipped by the spaniards before rebelling

Why can't I watch the Jacobite rising, this video is now for sponsors. You said that sponsors get access to videos before everyone else, but you didn’t say that some videos are exclusively now only for sponsors!😔😭
I just want to make some corrections and add some facts to your video:
1. The Philippines was only ever a republic once after the US granted it independence in 1946. Aguinoldo's faction declared the Philippines free in 1899 but no legitimate power recognized it. But plenty of important powers recognized America's right to rule the region.
2. The Filipino insurgents were not united during their rebellion against the US and a huge factor for the US being able to insert control. There were several competing insurgent factions and none of them wanted to share power with one another.
3. Aguinoldo was a brutal warlord who tyrannized his own people to the point that they betrayed him to the US. He in turn, switched sides and aligned himself with the US as an informant because if he "could not rule the Philippines" then none of his fellow Filipino rivals could.
4. Filipino insurgents did as much scorch earth tactics as the Americans did which resulted to thousands of civilians dying too.
You are on point. The mother narrative about “Philippine History” is to create unifying myth. The Tagalog rebels against Spain composed of 8 Tagalog provinces did not overthrow Spain. There was no surrender of sovereign power to any “Filipino Republic” by Spain. The Tagalog rebellion declaring independence from Spain was not recognized because they have no effective control of the Philippines. Spain did and sold it to the US. The non Tagalog people of other islands have no desire to rebel against Spain but eventually did because of the power vacuum which ensued when Spain lost to the US and to keep the collected taxes from getting into the hands of the Tagalog rebels in need of finances.
what in this video minutes r u talking abt? pls kinly answer i need this to my project. thanks
Filipinos is way more Christian than the Americans and infact the Filipino's already has a basic ducation and universities introduced by the Spanish.
University of Santo Tomas was built in the 17th century. Many of our churches, schools were built in the 16th centuries.
Spanish priests packing.
Wrong. America did not civilize and christianize the Philippines. Americans massacred Filipinos during the colonialization, Phil-American War, and exploited its natural resources from mining of gold and other minerals. Abandoned immediately after ww2 when Manila was badly and totally destroyed in the guise of granting independence while the Philippines was in the state of destruction.

My grandpa's mom is half american. They are based in Olongapo.
This is not taught neither in US classrooms nor Filipino classrooms - There is only one person who reached the rank of 5-star general (AKA Field Marshall) ranking in Philippine Army, and take note he is not a Filipino. That person is Gen. Douglas MacArthur, who is also a 5-star general in US Army. It only shows how Filipinos love MacArthur as he did not abandon the Philippines after his retreat during World War II, even in the middle of the war, he lobbied for the liberation of the Philippines in a contrary of suggestion of Admiral Nimitz to attack Formosa (Taiwan).
Americans conquered only Luzon and Visayas and not us the Bangsamoro of Mlndanao and Sulu. You can see it in the Treaty of Paris
I recommend reading Brian McAllister Linn's book for a better understanding of the Philippine-American War (aka Philippine Insurrection).
The First Republic was birthed from Aguinaldo's dictatorship government and was created be elites who didn't represent all the different people of the islands. A government that rather than bringing in like minded people, executed them (such as Bonifacio). This created a situation that made it easy for the Americans to gain the favor of local and regional leaders who were not under Aguinaldo's declared First Republic, which attempted to supplant them with his own chosen people.
alot of proof my country and province palawan
2:20 It seems concentration camps was an American implementation even before World War 2

Its officially said after the liberation of the Philippines from japan in ww2 is when we gained our independence but we technically beat the spainiards and the us instead of acknowledging our victory stole our glory 😤
Rip to my lolo he was a school teacher and guerilla fighter ww2, northern luzon
You know what, if i were McKinley, i would just help and assist Philippines instead of colonizing them i mean it colonizing them wasn't necessary tbh.
I think it's the resources.. but at least filipinos had been freed from slavery from 333 years of Spaniards colony since the United States bought the Philippines from Spain long time ago.. Filipinos should be grateful with that..
US and The Philippines fought a vicious war against each other. We both didn't like it and we both decided not to do it again. Together, we fought the Japanese. Since then, we have been brother nations. But, unlike China - Taiwan and Russia - Ukraine, each brother gets his own house.
I like how when the people of the territory wanted independence, the US government granted it. Can't imagine the same happening in Russia or China for instance.
Ever heard of Hawaii and Puerto Rico?
Because they didn't want the Phils at all. They needed an outpost for their true interest since the 19th century, China. They maintained effective control through their two biggest military bases (& some smaller ones) and MNCs as a condition for independence, rather cheap than running a colony & helping with full restoration after the war.
Commonwealth of the D4DJ Groovy Mix of Philippines?
The Corregidor is read as "ko-re-hi-dor"
Bataan is read as "ba-ta-an"
Now I understand the fate and flight that has befallen on the country.
We are warded from here by the influence of the Spanish invaders. Muslims who refused to convert were massacred. Even the city of Manila comes from amanilah. Muslims eventually fled south of minlake. Spanish people say that the people of Mindanao, south of Mindanao, were the most despicable of all, that moro said on minlake. Then the northmen tried to drive the moro's people out of her native land of Mindanao, this fools by the Spanish towards the Philippines.
What? The Americans defeated the Spaniards in the "Battle of the Bay"! And so the Spaniards have to surrender the Philippines that they take by force from the Philippines natives. Yeah the Americans paid Spain to settle and end the war.
But national independence day was transferred to June 12, 1898
“To Christianize them.” Funny that majority of the Filipinos that time were Catholics, and that’s the OG Christians compared to the protestants offshoots that were shipped off to the new world.
The so called revolution never came to fruition because it was mainly a Tagalog revolt. Filipinas as a nation was unheard of by macabebes of Pampanga and Bisayan people and even the igorots of the mountain. Was it good that US defeated the Moros in the south? Maybe... Filipinas as a nation didnt exist until recently, it was like Europe, divided by Spain by etnicity
You did not mention of Dr.Jose Rizal our national hero
The American Empire needs to grant independence to Guam and Puerto Rico just like the American Empire granted independence to the Philippines back in 1946ce.
Puerto Rico and Guam continue to state their desire for retainment and even statehood for Puerto Rico.
Yeah that will never happen.
Guam is a strategic location for the US Military
why would they do that? puerto rico voted to stay in the union dummy 97% voted in favor of staying
There is no American empire. The US has never been an empire.
America isn't an empire. It never has been.
Our Pilipino President asked American President for help due to Merciless Japanese invade Philippines.And America riply for help for the Pilipinos that cannot defend their ass against invader.
They were already Christians. Americans used protestantism to places where catholics are not established like in the Cordilleras, a place Spain influence is strongly resisted. Compared to catholism which is very strict in practicing their beliefs, protestants allow the natives to continue practice their culture and their way of life that's why it is accepted and gradually became Christians as well
To "Christianize" them? It's the Spaniards who Christianized most of the Philippines.
That sounds disingenuous isn't it? It's the American narrative folks. They couldn't care less for our spiritual well-being. That should be accorded to the Spanish clergy for convincing the military-civilian authorities not to leave the Philippines early on their colonization because it's their Christian duty to convert the indios.
School Idol Tomodachi Occupation of Philippines in WWII?
So a bunch of people died for nothing. But at least the people who were already from the island got their island back 😵💫
Interesting that the date is 4th of July
The Independence Day is actually celebrated on the 12 of June
The day Filipinos liberated their country from spain
@@CCrux-ytHow?
@@CCrux-ytthat was an executive order by President Macapagal in 1964. Prior to that it was July 4, 1946 from the USA. Anybody can declare independence but that does not make it real when the supposed independence from Spain was not recognized nor did it cover the entire Philippines. Only the rebelling Tagalog provinces. The Philippines that you inherited was not born from “revolution” but by being granted by the USA.
The Philippines should be trilingual: English, Tagalog and Spanish
Filipinas debería ser trilingue: Ingles, Tagalo y Español
Dapat trilingual ang Pilipinas: English, Tagalog at Spanish
America bought Philippines from Spain and also America bought Alaska from Russia. The End
0:34 Lmao have they forgotten that we've been Christians for 500 years?
They meant protestant I assume, not Catholic
@Only 333 years, not 500. Spain on the other hand was ruled by the Moslems for 800 years
