Emilio Aguinaldo was a revolutionary

political and military figure from the

Philippines. He is officially regarded as
the first and the youngest president of the
Philippines and first president of a
constitutional republic in Asia. He served
as the leader of the Philippine forces
against Spain in the latter part of the
Philippine Revolution and the Spanish–
American War. He was also a prolific

He was vice president under Manuel
L. Quezon. Upon Quezon's sudden
death in 1944, Osmeña succeeded
him at age 65, becoming the oldest
person to assume the Philippine
presidency until Rodrigo Duterte took
office in 2016 at age 71. A founder of
the Nacionalista Party, Osmeña was
also the first Visayan to become
president.
Manuel Roxas (1892-1948) was the last
president of the Commonwealth and the first
president of the Republic of the Philippines.
His administration demonstrated decisively
that political sovereignty without economic
independence encourages reaction,
perpetuation of social injustices, and
exploitation.
Elpidio Rivera Quirino (born Elpidio
Quirino y Rivera; Tagalog: [ˈkiɾino];
November 16, 1890 – February 29,
1956) was a Filipino lawyer and
politician who served as the sixth
president of the Philippines from 1948
to 1953
Carlos P. Garcia (1896-1971) was
the fourth president of the
Republic of the Philippines. He
was noted for the enunciation of
the Filipino First Policy, intended
to complete and guarantee
Philippine economic
independence and sovereignty.
During his presidency, Quezon tackled the problem of
landless peasants in the countryside. His other major
decisions include the reorganization of the islands'
military defense, approval of a recommendation for
government reorganization, the promotion of
settlement and development in Mindanao, dealing
with the foreign stranglehold on Philippine trade and
commerce, proposals for land reform, and opposing
graft and corruption within the government. He
established a government-in-exile in the U.S. with the
outbreak of World War II and the threat of Japanese
invasion.
The Philippines is far away and the
country’s political culture is not well
known in France. Rodrigo Duterte, the
"strong man" of Manila, is the typical
example of a leader who came to
power through the ballot box but
whose exercise of power, of
unprecedented brutality, breaks with
democratic traditions.
Macapagal was admitted to the bar in
1936. During World War II he practiced law
in Manila and aided the anti-Japanese
resistance. After the war he worked in a law
firm and in 1948 served as second
secretary to the Philippine Embassy in
Washington, D.C.
Philippine president Ferdinand
Edralin Marcos (1917-1989) began
his career in politics with the
murder of Julio Nalundasan in
1935, and ended it with the murder
of Benigno Aquino, Jr., in 1983.
Some believe his entire life was
based on fraud, deceit, and
plunder, and his two decades as
president have come to epitomize
the worst excesses of autocratic
rule.
Corazon “Cory” Aquino went from a
shy law school student, to the first
female president of the Philippines.
Supported by the People Power
Revolution, Aquino successfully ran
a peaceful movement that eventually
led her to become TIME Magazine’s

other woman that received that
honor at the time was Queen

In 1998 Estrada ran for
president, though his
candidacy faced significant
opposition. Ramos, who was
constitutionally barred from
running for a second term,
endorsed House Speaker
José de Venecia, and many
of the country’s powerful
businessmen opposed
Estrada’s populist
proposals.
