    The 19th century saw over 300 years of Spanish colonial rule over the Philippines. During this time, Catholicism, the encomienda system of forced labor, and other cruelties were introduced. However, the Spanish also brought developments like Christianity, printing, medicine, architecture, and the arts that still influence Filipino culture today. The system of government and taxation from this era also shaped modern Philippine governance. Cultural exchanges with Spain during this period blended indigenous and foreign elements into Filipino language, cuisine, and arts. Events in the 19th century, like the introduction of cash crops for international trade, helped integrate the Philippines into the global economy and sparked Filipino nationalism that led to revolutions for independence.

    Connect: Reflection on the 19th Century

    The 19th century witnessed the Spanish colonial rule that lasted for over three centuries. Under this Spanish
    colonization, Catholicism, encomienda system, and forced labor were introduced to the Philippines. Although it was
    all mainly about the cruelties and injustices of the Spaniards towards the Filipinos during the 19th century, they
    introduced a lot of things amongst the Filipinos which are still evident to this day. Christianity was introduced to the
    Filipinos which is still existing today, a large population of the Filipinos are still practicing Christianity and Catholicism.
    The development of the printing press, medicine, science, architecture, music, grammar, dictionaries, literatures, and
    the arts were also part of the contributions of the friars and those significantly became a part of the Filipino cultures
    which is still very noticeable today, those developments influenced the different cultures that the Philippines have
    today. The system of government during the Spanish colonization also made a significant influence on the
    established system of government that the country has in the present, an example of this is the collection of taxes
    which is still very important today. Those events during the 19th century were also a great part of the way that the
    Philippines is right now, they contributed to the shaping of the Philippines. The cultural exchanges between the
    Philippines and Spain during the 19th century left an imprint on Filipino language, cuisine, and arts which resulted in
    the blending of indigenous and foreign elements of their cultures that are still evident to this day. International trade
    was also introduced like the introduction of cash crops like tobacco for exports that made the Philippines more
    integrated into the global economy which is evidently extended well into the 20th century. These historical events that
    happened during the 19th century opened the eyes and mind of the Filipinos which resulted in the birth of Filipino
    nationalism amongst the Filipinos, by this desire to achieve independence, revolutions against the Spanish
    government were conducted. So, these events laid the foundation for the Philippines' eventual journey to
    independence and made the Philippines that we see today.
