Nice to hear stories about spices. I'm from Jakarta, Indonesia. But my grandmother is Moluccan. I was often invited to Banda Island to harvest nutmeg and cloves when I was little. The memories are very powerful. I really want to go back there. The island has its own scent.
Do you know how many spices can cure or heal COVID infections and many other diseases? Turmeric, cinnamon, cloves etc. They are antiinflammatories. COVID is an inflammatory disease. But CDC won't tell you this. They hide info as we all know
Your Highness Tunku Datu Kirby! We are wishing you a new year filled with great joy, surrounded by loved ones. May the coming year bring you continued success, good health, and abundant happiness. Your leadership is truly an inspiration to us all! 🎉👑 from our team representing 🇲🇾🇧🇳🇮🇩🇵🇭!
Hi, my sister's husband is from city of Ambon, Moluccas. She said that her husband's great-great-great grandfather worked as Cloves plantation worker. Because of Dutch's 'cultuurstelsel' policy, he and all the workers in entire region were forced to burn thousands of Clove trees in the plantation hence the Dutch can have the monopoly over the Clove's price. Great and informative video, send love from Indonesia :)
@@KirbyAraullo sama sama (you're welcome). It's rare to see someone do deep research into precolonial history of the Philippines. Me as Indonesian are curious because the more you expose your pre-Spanish era history, the more we can see that The Philippines and Malay world is indeed related. Looking forward to your next video, maraming salamat Kuya 👍
The mass cut down of Cloves for controlling the price that you're referring to is called *Hongi Tochten* , while the *Cultuurstelsel* was an enforced planting system which came later.
Yay! thank you and I'm glad you love learning about how connected Southeast Asia really is 😊 p.s. That was actually my original plans for the channel when I started making history video years ago. I really wanted it to be more about Southeast Asia, not just the Philippines. 😉
The fall of Malacca was a sad tragedy. If you visited Malacca city today you will see abundance of Portuguese architectures, buildings especially churches. The Portuguese cleaned up the city of Malacca from it's Malay identity. Malacca was the centre of modern Malay cultures, for example the invention of Baju Kurung (the national dress), modern malay cultures was mostly originated from the Malaccan Sultanate. Unlike Indonesia, the central of Indonesian culture are based on the Majapahit. This can be seen from the national motto of Indonesia taken from the Kakawin Sutasoma that mentioned "Bhinekka Tunggal Ika" (unity in diversity).
Same in the Philippines our native Southeastasian culture, architecture, and ideas were burned and destroyed to the ground by the Spaniards, convert us to christians, and made us Hispanic

Malacca was a prominent centre of Malay culture, there's no denying in that. However its significance as "the origins" of modern Malay culture is exaggerated, because at the same time there exist other important centres of Malay culture like Pasai and Minangkabau, who all have influence on the Malay culture we know today, far longer and more impactful than Malacca. Pasai gave the Jawi script which used in written Bahasa Melayu for centuries, and the Minang gave their custom (and also their language) which influenced Malay culture. Even the Bugis and Javanese also have roles in shaping Malay culture.
Second time of asking to cover some philippine royal architectures (Luzon and Visayas specifically if possible) like the Torogan of Maranao, Mindoro that we don't know about or only few knows. Btw, great video!
I feel like at least one answer to the question "Why did Europe Colonize [Place]?" will always be "Because Europeans really love colonizing and want to do it everywhere"
Uh sir at 12:25 the map shows that a part of north borneo was under the control of spain in accordance to the said treaty and that made me remember an ongoing territorial dispute between the Philippines and Malaysia could you please make a video further elaborating the historical claims of both countries
Fact is the South East Asian countries have traded and interacted with each other, before the Europeans arrived. The preset ASEAN has had relations with China, Japan, India and the Middle East.
@@KirbyAraullo could you create a content about it? It is exactly the research topic I have been developing for the last few years for Masters and PhD project ;) Thanks!
*Spice Islands of Moluccas* were the only producer of Cloves and Nutmeg in the world since ancient times, hence the place was very coveted. For centuries these islands were the domain of four brother kingdoms - Ternate, Tidore, Bacan, and Jailolo who uninamously called their realms *Moloku Kie Raha* a.k.a "The Four Mountains of Maluku" - they named it so since each kingdom's capital were situated under a mountain. Rarely mention in history is that the Sultanate of Ternate under Sultan Baabullah was successfully defeated Portuguese and curb their influence in the later half of 1500s. Sultan Baabullah was able to keep Portuguese and Spanish at bay and bring all of Spice Islands of Moluccas (and beyond) under his sultanate influence. He made a rule for all Europeans to put off their shoes when landed in Ternate as if it's a holy place. A rule made so the Europeans know how to "behave". Sadly his successors were weak Sultans who then eventually brought the sultanate into Dutch grip. I'm aware of Sultanate of Ternate close relationship with the Sultanates in the Philippines but not much. I also know there's a place in Cavite Province called Ternate said to be founded by immigrants from Ternate. Found a bit about them on Wiki, but can you elaborate more on the history? 🙏
Glad you like them! That was actually my original plans for the channel when I started making history video years ago. I really wanted it to be more about Southeast Asia, not just the Philippines. 😊
17:32 Not until the dawn of the 21st century. Brunei got its independence in 1984. And East Timor, the last country in the region to decolonize, get freed from Indonesian annexation just in 2002.

RMS and OPM claims are nothing more than hot air. What imperialism when the Moluccans and Papuans are able to govern their land by themselves and have equal rights with other Indonesians with no exceptions?!

Filipino cuisine is great. People just need to be Less Insecure by trying desperately to put a backstory to even the most lame items like the Shanghai and Canton which are obviously Chinese food items. Just stop trying to hard to come up with Trivia and fun facts to sensationalize the Adobo and the Fried Egg meals (Silogs). Before Filipinos can work on trying to impress foreigners with Jollibee, they should first make sure the Filipino masses can afford to eat at Jollibee even if its not Christmas or their payday. Before you can brag about the Halo Halo and Ube Cake, work on making it cultural, meaning the Filipinos can actually afford them.
@@eduardochavacano The “insecure backstory” that you are saying here is me trying to explain something with the intent to identify the SOURCES of an existing problem also WHERE did I sensationalize the specific recipes of Filipino Cuisine?

When it comes to food in a cultural sense, there is NO INTERNATIONAL STANDARD that should meet the taste of non-Filipinos, especially the West. You digressed too much with the unnecessary details when in fact you merely wanted to seek clarification of any connection between food and history.
@@alsuvarnadvipadanargentum1743 Out of topic, Aetas aren't that much talked about when discussing Pre-Colonial Philippines. They had little interaction with the Spaniards as most of them migrated to/remained/lived in the moutains during Spanish rule. Even the attempts of the Spaniards failed to settle them in reducciones or reservations all throughout Spanish rule. It is generally believed that they are the older inhabitants of the Philippines. Dayang C Marikit notes that they were hugely affected and influenced by the arrival of the Austronesians. She notes that there is Aeta DNA in Austronesians and Austronesian DNA in Aetas. This suggests intermingling and interaction of both populations. Most of them speak Austronesian languages. What happened to their original languages is unknown. The most likely scenario I theorized myself is the assimilation and interaction with the Austronesian population. There is the Ati-Atihan Festival commerating the Barter of Panay, where Aetas accepted gifts from Bornean chieftain, who fled with their families to escape a tyrannical ruler, in exchange for being allowed to dwell in Aetas' lands according to legends. Their role and treatment in Pre-colonial Philippines varies. In other places they are like regular people, others being paying tributes to the local rulers, while others being subjected to slave raids. I hope Kirby gets to cover and research about them and maybe enlighten us with the information he researched.🙂
I don't know man, I see Filipino desserts more well liked than any other Filipino food (except iconic ones like adobo, sinigang or balut for brave travelers).
Hola soy Juan yo estoy curioso que usted habló español al final del vídeo y me pregunto que si está bilingüe o puede hablar muchos idiomas aparate de tagalo o inglés? English: Hello my name is John im curios you spoke spanish at the end of the video and It got me wonder if your a bilingual or can you speak other languages other than tagalog or english?
Filipino is multilingual when we are born we speak our cultural language our national language nd we can understand and speak well english thats 3 languages and if we visit other country we can adopt also their languages some filipino have 6 to 12 languages can use ....
No, As long as colonial mentality prevails then shall IMPERIALISM (Europe, America, JAPAN) remain. Hence the need for de-colonialization of the minds and PROPER educations (not only history, but also the education of Writing SYSTEMS - NOT ONLY BAYBAYIN, etc) starting from the cradle (daycares, et al) to tertiary schooling.
I couldn't agree more, but I think there is now a rising consciousness among Filipinos to practice cultural relativism instead of ethnocentrism or xenocentrism.
Mr. Kirby, can you share ur opinion about.. Sabah. Who is legitimate owner of Sabah either Philippines, Malaysia or Brunei. I hope you can make video on this..
@@Neg-Rosgiven to the Philippines? The word Philippines only exist after the coming of the Spanish. And the Spanish never really get to control the Muslim South. So if the creation of the was based on Spanish territories, thus Southern Muslim cannot be included and when the creation of the Philippines from the US, the southern muslim sultan was never recognised by the new Catholic Philippines. But today Sabah is Malaysia.. period !!
I hope you could also make an informative video about the people of the Cordilleras in the Northern mountains of Luzon. I'm a cordilleran and I'd want to know of my people's history. Did we belong to the ancient empire of the Philippines? Our beliefs are totally different though.
Ancient Pampanga & its six present provinces was called Luzoon, now d present Central Luzon. 650 years ago.Chieftain Khokalaw signed a Diplomatic & Trade Treaty to supply China Hardwood &Indigo blue powder. Since no artifacts to proved d event, cultural remnnts were available. D town of Apalit and San Fernndo barangay Bulaon were developed as hardwood plantation for China. Indigo plants are available in several towns of Nueva Ecija. These Two Sites produce Narra, Teka, Apitong, Bulaon hard wood. New roads were constructd to bring products to ship yard @ancient town of Bulwaan,Bulacan, Bulacan.In 1405, to bring out d products from origin to ship yard. Nuew road was proposd, it was calld- Sindalan. Until now, dis indigenous name still exist- Hokkian word for New Hiway.

It is a wonder for me why Philippine Cuisine is not as complex, flavor wise, compared to Indian and Indonesian cuisines when the spice islands are our neighbors?
Spanish influence. Our taste buds were trained to accept the taste buds of our Castillian colonizers for three centuries. Then come the Americans, another colonizer that is known for their bland cuisine.
@@GaryHField You have partially answered my question and the Goods from Neighboring SEAsian countries, Indian Subcontinent and West Asia During the Early to Middle Spanish Colonial Period in the Philippines 🇵🇭 are becoming increasingly inaccessible to the Native Filipinos because the new manager has altered and restricted the existing trade routes to Hispanic America

Just remembered to comment it now. This might not be history as it's pretty current (in relation to your usual content), but I would like to see a deeper dive in southeast Asian cooperation in more modern times. Is the ASEAN serving its purpose? How about the SEA Games? Is it really promoting camaraderie between the member nations or is it just a shallow penis-measuring contest on which host country can win the most gold medals? Same with the AFF Championship in association football, which somehow is a bigger deal than the AFC Asian Cup, and is only second to the FIFA World Cup despite the first one being a much smaller regional competition. As for the Philippines, what's your take on the tribalism/regionalism that's still prevalent in the present day? Would it better to have autonomous regions with a decentralized government rather than forcing diverse people of different cultures follow a "one nation, one flag" principle?
Discovery because it was the first time in recorded history that westerners discovered it's existence. Let's change it to introduced to the Philippines as opposed to discovered the Philippines.
Its all a bullshit that the Europeans came to South East Asia for the Spices, their main mission was to Christianised the region, after having defeated the Great Muslim Empire of the Iberia Peninsula. They have heard the great muslim Sultanate of Melaka(which was at that time a centre of trade between east and west) and they wish to conquer and convert them to Christian. The whole achipelego of now called Philippines were muslims too. Yet the Spanish conqestador never really get to conquer or control the southern part and convert them all to Christian like they did to the northern Achipelagoes ..
Weird they claimed that Magellan expediting was the 1st to circumnavigate the world. But Magellan and Spain is aware about Moluccas meaning they heard it from someone so question now is from whom they find out about spice Islands? So does it mean that the man or group where they find out about the island are the real 1st to circumnavigate the world?
Malaysia’s Penang and Melaka also have lots of spices. Indonesia’s Beef Rendang is so sophisticated compared to the highly sensationalized Adobo, which no one ever cooks for a wedding or a bday party.
@@eduardochavacano Many Filipinos don't just eat adobo. What the.. is adobo the only food you ever think Filipinos are proud of? Secondly, I have attended many posh weddings that serve adobo in its many forms. It doesn't however lose its prestige just because it isn't served in a wedding. Lols. How your mind works makes me laugh. Poor thing.

What happened to their original languages is unknown. The most likely scenario I theorized myself is the assimilation and interaction with the Austronesian population.
There is the Ati-Atihan Festival commerating the Barter of Panay, where Aetas accepted gifts from Bornean chieftain, who fled with their families to escape a tyrannical ruler, in exchange for being allowed to dwell in Aetas' lands according to legends. Their role and treatment in Pre-colonial Philippines varies. In other places they are like regular people, others being paying tributes to the local rulers, while others being subjected to slave raids.
I hope Kirby gets to cover and research about them and maybe enlighten us with the information he researched.🙂
I don't know man, I see Filipino desserts more well liked than any other Filipino food (except iconic ones like adobo, sinigang or balut for brave travelers).
wow your spanish was very perfect, mr kirby
Hola soy Juan yo estoy curioso que usted habló español al final del vídeo y me pregunto que si está bilingüe o puede hablar muchos idiomas aparate de tagalo o inglés?
English: Hello my name is John im curios you spoke spanish at the end of the video and It got me wonder if your a bilingual or can you speak other languages other than tagalog or english?
Filipino is multilingual when we are born we speak our cultural language our national language nd we can understand and speak well english thats 3 languages and if we visit other country we can adopt also their languages some filipino have 6 to 12 languages can use ....
I love your videos, so much to learn. Is the background music Filipino?
No, As long as colonial mentality prevails then shall IMPERIALISM (Europe, America, JAPAN) remain.
Hence the need for de-colonialization of the minds and PROPER educations (not only history, but also the education of Writing SYSTEMS - NOT ONLY BAYBAYIN, etc) starting from the cradle (daycares, et al) to tertiary schooling.
I couldn't agree more, but I think there is now a rising consciousness among Filipinos to practice cultural relativism instead of ethnocentrism or xenocentrism.
Hello Kirby i hope you will make a video about the Macabebe Scouts and their role in Katipunan, i want to know the truth about them. Thanks
My grandma will tell me about are history when I was young and made me a proud Filipino an still humble
very educational...
Thank you :)
Such a large area of history to tackle about
Mr. Kirby, can you share ur opinion about.. Sabah. Who is legitimate owner of Sabah either Philippines, Malaysia or Brunei. I hope you can make video on this..
T'was owned by Brunei, given to the Philippines, rented to the Malaysia by Great Britain....
Thats very short but meaningful reply and thats the truth
@@Neg-Rosgiven to the Philippines? The word Philippines only exist after the coming of the Spanish. And the Spanish never really get to control the Muslim South. So if the creation of the was based on Spanish territories, thus Southern Muslim cannot be included and when the creation of the Philippines from the US, the southern muslim sultan was never recognised by the new Catholic Philippines.
But today Sabah is Malaysia.. period !!
@@TreiHutchinson what's your point then??? it's as if you're pointing out that Muslim Mindanao is not part of the Philippines...
@@TreiHutchinson remember Philippines is an Archipelago...it doesn't mean since we're not connected by land...part of our territory wasn't ours...
I hope you could also make an informative video about the people of the Cordilleras in the Northern mountains of Luzon. I'm a cordilleran and I'd want to know of my people's history. Did we belong to the ancient empire of the Philippines? Our beliefs are totally different though.
May I suggest you ask your elders as well? They may have written oral stories to give you? I understand it's hard to research though. Stay safe.
Charles V looked like william dafoe

Ancient Pampanga & its six present provinces was called Luzoon, now d present Central Luzon. 650 years ago.Chieftain Khokalaw signed a Diplomatic & Trade Treaty to supply China Hardwood &Indigo blue powder. Since no artifacts to proved d event, cultural remnnts were available. D town of Apalit and San Fernndo barangay Bulaon were developed as hardwood plantation for China. Indigo plants are available in several towns of Nueva Ecija. These Two Sites produce Narra, Teka, Apitong, Bulaon hard wood. New roads were constructd to bring products to ship yard @ancient town of Bulwaan,Bulacan, Bulacan.In 1405, to bring out d products from origin to ship yard. Nuew road was proposd, it was calld- Sindalan. Until now, dis indigenous name still exist- Hokkian word for New Hiway.
That information you have just shared, where are your sources?
The sheer amount of information sheesh! No matter what angle you want to see, European is always be greedy because of the colonization🤣🤣🤣
pleaseee react to Alamat's new MV for ABKD
Would love to learn more about the Kapampangan people in Indonesia (in Java?). I did a genetic test that shows that I am 14% Filipino. I won't be surprised if that's where my ancestor is from.
Yup, they were also in Java 😊
And Sumatra too!
I leave it to you to create this very interesting episode 🙂

It is a wonder for me why Philippine Cuisine is not as complex, flavor wise, compared to Indian and Indonesian cuisines when the spice islands are our neighbors?
Spanish influence. Our taste buds were trained to accept the taste buds of our Castillian colonizers for three centuries. Then come the Americans, another colonizer that is known for their bland cuisine.

You have partially answered my question and the Goods from Neighboring SEAsian countries, Indian Subcontinent and West Asia During the Early to Middle Spanish Colonial Period in the Philippines 🇵🇭 are becoming increasingly inaccessible to the Native Filipinos because the new manager has altered and restricted the existing trade routes to Hispanic America
I said this to Kirby Araullo first but I feel that my paragraph might be worth reading 📖 for you:
As a potential follow up to this video Kirby can you please explain (in a possible future video) the evolution of Filipino Cuisine for better or worse because Filipino Cuisine on an International Level has a BAD reputation for being “bland” and where do these perceptions really came from as in looking at the sources Why-like the Medieval Trading Routes of the Philippine Archipelago being already interconnected with it’s neighborhood (Chinese, Indian, Indonesian and West Asian influences) has been altered by the Spaniards (and as a consequence the taste 👅 palette of the Christianized Filipinos from Culinary as an art form to Survival first mentality affecting the quality of the native foods towards the common people consuming them) to monopolize and therefore confine the Philippines 🇵🇭 within Spain’s influence and control alone which only worsened an already existing problem of Piracy from both the Chinese North and Muslim South and Competition against the Dutch and British to break Spain’s monopoly for the China Trade making the maintenance of the “Spanish East Indies” real expensive and some instances in the 1500’s to 1700’s to abandon the colony by Political Spanish officials BUT the Roman Catholic Church ⛪️ refuses because control the natives peoples under them to Christianity and use the Philippines as a launching pad for their conversion missions to China 🇨🇳 and Japan 🇯🇵
That's bocoz the Philippines love to eat rotten egg called the *Bulut* ?
SPICES!!
When dutch sell new york to buy banda island
Bakit ang pogi ni kuya kirby huhuhuhuhu
magundanao i ternate were conected then_

Dati kasi spice pinaka importante sa ekonomiya ng bansa ngayon Technology na importante! Kaya dapat mag invest ang gobyerno sa science and Technology! Kaya gusto i annex ng China ang Taiwan dahil #1 sila pag dating sa Semi Conductor! 92% of the world's most advanced semiconductor manufacturing capacity ay galing sa Taiwan!
Hi, Kirby can you do a video on why were the Jesuits suppressed not only in the Philippines but around the world.
Just remembered to comment it now. This might not be history as it's pretty current (in relation to your usual content), but I would like to see a deeper dive in southeast Asian cooperation in more modern times. Is the ASEAN serving its purpose?
How about the SEA Games? Is it really promoting camaraderie between the member nations or is it just a shallow penis-measuring contest on which host country can win the most gold medals? Same with the AFF Championship in association football, which somehow is a bigger deal than the AFC Asian Cup, and is only second to the FIFA World Cup despite the first one being a much smaller regional competition.
As for the Philippines, what's your take on the tribalism/regionalism that's still prevalent in the present day? Would it better to have autonomous regions with a decentralized government rather than forcing diverse people of different cultures follow a "one nation, one flag" principle?
Discovery because it was the first time in recorded history that westerners discovered it's existence. Let's change it to introduced to the Philippines as opposed to discovered the Philippines.
Yeah like he said .. Terima Kasih, Jumpa lagi .. in Bahasa Melayu...
Mana ada bahasa indonesia nya??
Its all a bullshit that the Europeans came to South East Asia for the Spices, their main mission was to Christianised the region, after having defeated the Great Muslim Empire of the Iberia Peninsula. They have heard the great muslim Sultanate of Melaka(which was at that time a centre of trade between east and west) and they wish to conquer and convert them to Christian. The whole achipelego of now called Philippines were muslims too. Yet the Spanish conqestador never really get to conquer or control the southern part and convert them all to Christian like they did to the northern Achipelagoes ..
Weird they claimed that Magellan expediting was the 1st to circumnavigate the world. But Magellan and Spain is aware about Moluccas meaning they heard it from someone so question now is from whom they find out about spice Islands? So does it mean that the man or group where they find out about the island are the real 1st to circumnavigate the world?
Europeans colonized half of the world,or the test of the world. in search for how to make food tastes good... 😊
First
Salamat 🥳
Walang anuman po
Indonesia have a lot and lot of spice that can NOT even found in the Philippines.
Malaysia’s Penang and Melaka also have lots of spices. Indonesia’s Beef Rendang is so sophisticated compared to the highly sensationalized Adobo, which no one ever cooks for a wedding or a bday party.
it's not saying that Philippines only have spices - why turn this into a useless argument?
@@eduardochavacano so? did it say that Philippines is superior to x,y,z? It's all about PREFERENCE. Why turn these into useless arguements?
And many Filipinos don't really care. Lols.
@@eduardochavacano Many Filipinos don't just eat adobo. What the.. is adobo the only food you ever think Filipinos are proud of? Secondly, I have attended many posh weddings that serve adobo in its many forms. It doesn't however lose its prestige just because it isn't served in a wedding. Lols. How your mind works makes me laugh. Poor thing.
I suggest not to discuss things so fast or quick.

America was founded by Spain first
True. If the English didn't establish their Virginia colony and Canada, the entire New World would've been a colony of Spain.
Obvious Fact:The Spice Islands Are Indonesian
