HISTORY OF PHILIPPINES, PART 7

HOW ARE Y?AFTER THE CAKES AND PIE, THE ICE THEA AND RED HORSE BEER FROM SAN MIGUEL PH, WE WILL BRING Y BACK TO THE HISTORY OF THIS COUNTRY.
PART 7 CONTAINS THE SPANISH EPISODE.WHEN Y TRAVEL THROUGH THE COUNTRY Y WILL SEE A LOT OF INFLUENCES FROM THIS PERIOD.IS IT THE STATUES,THE BUILDINGS,THE WRITINGS OR THE NAMES,OR EVEN PARTS OF A CITY, LIKE THE INTRAMUROS WITHIN THE CAPITAL CITY MANILA. THE FIRST NAME I REMEMBER IS MAGELLAN FROM PORTUGAL/SPAIN.HE HAS BEEN ORDERED TO VISIT NEW COUNTRIES AND TO PRAY ABOUT CHRISTIANITY AND TO TRADE his products with SPICES AND SIMILAR PRODUCTS.THE MISTAKE HE MADE AFTER HIS ARRIVAL AT CEBU ISLAND HAS BEEN THE INTERFERENCE IN A DISPUTE BETWEEN RIVALS FROM CEBU TERRITORY,BEING LAPU-LAPU ,WHO ULTIMATELY KILLED MAGELLAN.MACTAN ISLAND WITH THE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT SHOWS Y THE STATUE.THE CAPITAL CITY SHOWS Y THE INTRAMUROS WITH THE FORT WERE PRISONERS WERE KEPT BY THE SPANISH GOVERNOR GENERAL.TO BE COMPARED WITH THE PRESIDENT NOWEDAYS,SHE IN THE PALACE AND THE RIVALS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY,SOME PROTECTED WITH WEAPONS, OTHERS WITH SUPPORT OF PARTIES.I TRY TO STAY OUT OF POLITICAL QUESTIONS, ALTHOUGH THAT IS NOT ALWAYS EASY.THE SPANISH WERE VERY RUDE NOW AND THEN AND FIGHTED IN HEAVY BATTLES ON SEA.DONOT FORGET THAT NAVEL COUNTRIES LIKE SPAIN,PORTUGAL,ENGLAND,FRANCE AND THE NETHERLANDS HAD A STRONG VESSEL ARMY, WITH STRONG INTENTIONS TO CONQUER THE WORLD AND TO INTRODUCE BELIEF IN THEIR CHURCHES.EVEN THE NETHERLANDS HAVE FOUGHT IN PH, BUT WERE BEATEN BY THE SPANISH AND FRENCH.IN THE END THE SPANISH KEPT ON STAYING IN POWER UNTIL THEY WERE BEATEN BY FILIPINO ARMY AND USA .THIS WAS THE START OF THE AMERICAN PERIOD.( PART 8 ).
GOD BLESS THE NAVAL COUNTRIES AND THE PH.
