Historical Background of
Philippine Nationalism
“FREEDOM
IS NOT
FREE”
Historical Background

• Filipino nationalism started in the Philippines in the 1800s


with an upsurge of patriotic feelings and nationalistic
ideals resulting from more than two decades of Spanish
rule. This served as the backbone of and continues to this
day, the first nationalist revolution of 1896.
• These nationalistic feelings have resulted to a
comprehensive campaign in the Philippines for political,
social, and economic liberty.
Historical Background

• The Philippines had been split into various principalities


known as “barangays” in years before the 11th century, a
name originating from the Malayan ships called balangay.
• Datus, Rajahs, or Sultans governed these tiny political
units, and in 1565, when Spanish Explorer Miguel Lopez
de Legazpi arrived from Mexico and established the first
European colonies in Cebu, European colonization
started in earnest.
Historical Background

• Starting with only five ships and five hundred men


accompanied by Augustinian monks and further
strengthened by two-hundred soldiers in 1567, he was
able to repel competing Portuguese colonizers and lay
the foundations for the Spanish colonization of the
Archipelago. The Spanish occupied the Kingdoms of
Manila and Tondo in 1571 and founded Manila as the
Capital of the Spanish east Indies.
The Beginning of the Filipino Nationalism

• Originally, the word “Filipino” originally referred to the


Philippines’ Spanish Criollos. The Spanish leaders
described the natives as Indians/Indio during their 333-
year rule over the Philippines.
• Insulars/Criollos/Creoles - • Spaniards born in the Phil.
• Peninsulars • Spanish-born Spaniards
• Mestizos • Those of Blended
heritage
