Prehistoric Katipunan Philippine – Commonwealth Fifth Republic

Philippines American War of the
Philippines

PRE - COLONIAL PERIOD

A long time ago, the Philippines was already home to native settlers. The
Negritos, the Indonesians, and the Malays race of origin, they were believed to be the
first migrant tribes to reach the country. The Pre-colonial period of the Philippines
had a rich political landscape consisting of polities. In strengthening

6
societies was to make alliances and networks rather than territorial conquest in
expanding their political power. Trades and commerce prospered as described and
documented in other countries whose early traders rich the Philippines. But also,
Barrow (2011) described that the early political and social life of Filipino was so weak.
He said that there were in the Philippines no large states, nor even great rajas and
sultans such as were found in the Malay Archipelago, but instead on every island
were a multitude of small communities, each independent of the other and frequently
waging war. Example of small communities were the Chiefdoms of P’u-tuan(Butuan),
Ma-i (Mindoro), Sulu, Maguindanao, Cebu, and etc.

When the Spaniards arrived in the country, they learned the presence of
chieftains (Hari, Datu, or Sultan) in every polity they encounter. They realized that
they need to persuade and build collaboration later with these chieftains. These small
communities are called and organized as Barangay (Balangay) and Sultanate, which
with about thirty to one hundred families.

Why is it necessary for the Spaniards to establish good terms with the
Chieftains or Sultans? It was because during their time, what they observed as power
connected to the position/role of a chieftain or Sultan in a polity was so great. For
example, the chieftain is the one responsible in decision making covering all aspects
(social, cultural, spiritual, and political) that affects their community life. The
responsibility of decision making means it covers the power of Executive, Legislative,
and Judiciary (discussed at a later part). He is helped, of course, by community elders
and cultural/religious leaders/Masters. The presence of a community head or leader
signifies the existence of a law. There was then a written or an oral Law followed
obediently. Examples of these were the Maragtas Code by Datu Sumaktel of Panay
(1250), the Code of Kalantiaw in 1433, Kor an,
and the Sunnah. Women, in the polities of the early Filipinos, must not also be
belittled. In the early times, remember that political engagement was more on alliance
rather than conquest. And, among the popular strategies employed were
intermarriages, food trades, and ritual feasting where women are actively
participating as expected by their customs and traditions.

Ballano (2016) said that to understand our Philippine government, is to

understand the three branches of the Government (Executive, Legislative, and
Judiciary).Let us simply define these three branches of government to help us observe
how these evolved over time. A separate module will discuss this in-depth with you
later.

EXECUTIVE BRANCH - Is the branch of the government that executes Laws.

LEGISLATIVE BRANCH - Is the branch of the government that creates Laws.

JUDICIARY BRANCH - Is the branch of the government that interprets the Laws
including its penalties if it was obstructed or disobeyed.

7
SPANISH PERIOD

During the Spanish period, the three branches of government are still identifiable.
There were also two units of government employed the Central Government and the Local
Government (Balleno, 2016). Most importantly to know, the Philippines was under the
sovereign power of the King of Spain- who solely has the authority to appoint his
representative (Governor-General). The illustration below will guide you to understand
more of these.

Two Units of Branch

Central Executive Governor –  Appointed by the King of Spain as

Government General his representative in the colony and

Issues of Spanish Government in the Philippines

The growth of the Philippines as a colony of Spain, from the time of the first
Governor-General Miguel Lopez de Legazpi in 1569 up to the time before the 1986
revolutions, is not commendable for Spaniards. Because for what 1986 Filipino
uprising is all about if Filipinos were contented as the colony of Spain in general.

From 1568 - 1815, Manila - Acapulco galleon trade makes the Philippine (as a
colony of Spain) the regional center of trade in Southeast Asia (please use the above
map for reference). Goods such as spices from the Moluccas, pepper from Ceylon,
ivory from China, and India are transported going to Mexico. While the Philippines
exports gold, wax, cordage, and cotton textiles. But it was never an advantage on the
part of Filipinos. Some reasons are enumerated as follows:

 Polo y Servicio - Filipinos works in the shipyards forcibly. They cut and
transport timber to the coast and construction of the galleons, but they receive
less than the Spanish Sailors. These the reason why Pampanga revolt in 1660.
 Encomienda - It is a policy of reward for performing crown servants of Spain
in a colony like the Philippines. It is taking over a portion of land and its
population for purposes of tribute, census, and workers.
 Bandala - The provincial commodity quota. Filipinos are obligated to produce
the quota of goods but paid at a very low price.

THE PHILIPPINE REVOLUTION

On August 30, 1896, Spanish Governor-General Ramon Blanco placed the eight
provinces of Philippines under martial law, namely Manila, Bulacan, Cavite, Pampanga,
Tarlac, Laguna, Batangas, and Nueva Ecija. It was because of the uprising of hundreds
of rebels and Katipuneros led by Andres Bonifacio aiming for independence started at the
Cry of Pugad Lawin. Following Bonifacio's death in 1897, the Katipunan was headed
by Emilio Aguinaldo. Since then was a continuous state of war between the Filipinos
and Spaniards. How did the war end? The answer is Pack of the Biak – na – Bato on
December 15, 1897. It was a truce that brings Aguinaldo's exile in Hong Kong. However,
in 1889, war broke out between the United States of America and Spain. Aguinaldo
returned to the Philippines together with the Americans signaling the resumption of
Revolution against Spain on May 19, 1898.

THE AMERICAN PERIOD and THE FIRST PHILIPPINE REPUBLIC

On August 13, 1889, the Mock Battle of Manila between America and Spanish
forces happened. Emphasizing that it is a mock battle because the engagement already
been planned to licensed America in their occupation to the country. It was a fact that
in the Treaty of Paris, America paid $20,000,000 to Spain in exchange for the
Philippines. Aguinaldo proclaimed Philippine independence at Cawit, Cavite on June
12, 1898(known as the Philippine provisionary government).

10
 By January 4, 1899, American President McKinley sends a special message to
General Otis stating American sovereignty must be recognized in the Philippines
without conditions. However, Filipinos longed for independence so much that they
fear for other colonizers to invade again.

Declaration of war between the Philippines and America happened. During

those days, the revolutionary government was drafting the Malolos Constitution until
the inauguration of the Republic on January 23, 1899. Agoncillo commented that the
Malolos constitution is the first important Filipino document ever produced by the
people's representatives. It creates a Filipino state that its government is popular,
representative, and responsible. It also has three distinct branches - the executive, the
legislative, and the judiciary. Don Emilio Aguinaldo elected as the first President of
the Republic of the Philippines with all his cabinets and secretaries (bureaucracy).
However, Aguinaldo was defeated and captured eventually in Palanan, Cagayan. He
remained President of the Philippine First Republic until June of 1901.

AMERICAN COLONIAL PERIOD

The Military Government ( headed by a general, serving as a chief political

executive of an area under military government) was a temporary government
established by the Americans in the Philippines at first. It was until replaced with the
Taft Commission -started organizing local governments. But since there were still
places unpacified after Aguinaldo's capture, some areas were placed under Military
Governor. On the other hand, Pacified areas were under the control of Civil
Governors.

The time came when the U.S Congress enacted the Philippine Organic Act, which
abolished the Office of the military governor but created the Philippine assembly
composed of elected Filipino leaders. And the Taft Commission in the Philippine
Commission became the upper house. The Organic Act served as the Philippine basic
law until it was replaced by the 1935 Constitution.

11
THE COMMONWEALTH GOVERNMENT AND THE SECOND REPUBLIC

November 15, 1935, was the inauguration of the Philippine Commonwealth

Government. America promised the Philippines liberation only if they are ready. It all
started with the Jones Law of 1916. And then the Tydings - McDuffie Act followed.
There were missions deployed to the U.S. to lobby for independence. The Constitution
of the Commonwealth established a presidential system of Government. A unicameral
legislature but was then replaced with the bicameral legislature in 1940.

As the Filipinos were hoping for independence, the second world war broke out on
December 8, 1941. The aggressive Japanese tried to invade the Philippines. That
prompted President Manuel L. Quezon with his Cabinet left for the United States.
While the President was on exile, the commonwealth government functioned to
represent the country continually outside the country. But the Philippines back home
was one step closer to its defeat when the Japanese capture Corregidor, Bataan, and
the USAFFE defense collapse on April 3, 1942. During the war, some Filipino elite
leaders collaborated extensively with the Japanese in their harsh exploitation of the
country. But it was then claimed as advised of President Quezon before his exile. The
First President of the Second Republic, Dr. Jose P. Laurel, regretted becoming one of
them.
While the Japanese thought of winning the war, Filipino organized into groups
called guerillas and once again join forces with the Americans. The largest guerilla
group formed was called the HUKBALAHAP (People's Anti-Japanese Army) led by
Luis Taruc.

Philippines and the Americans were victorious. The World War II ended.
However, unexpectedly the Americans disarmed and imprisoned Luis Taruc and
other leaders and members of the Huk.

THE THIRD, FOURTH, & FIFTH REPUBLIC

July 4, 1946, is the day of the inauguration of the Third Philippine Republic. Hence
from 1946 to 1962, they celebrate Independence Day on that date. But in 1964,
Congress assigned June 12 of every year as the date on which we celebrate Philippine
Independence. That was to commemorate June 12, 1898, the Proclamation of
Philippine Independence at Kawit, Cavite. But July 4 was remembered as Republic
Day.
