Cristóbal Téllez Almazán was an auditor licentiate taking over military affairs before becoming the 12th governor of the Philippines under Spanish colonial rule. He is the first governor-general of the Philippines from the Real Audiencia of Manila. [1] A series of Japanese insurrections began just last year,1606,when a son of a Japanese was killed by a Spaniard. The Japanese then plotted a revolt. A second Japanese insurrection occurred in 1607. [2]
The history of the Philippines dates from the earliest hominin activity in the archipelago at least by 709,000 years ago. Homo luzonensis,a species of archaic humans,was present on the island of Luzon at least by 134,000 years ago.
The military history of the Philippines is characterized by wars between Philippine kingdoms and its neighbors in the precolonial era and then a period of struggle against colonial powers such as Spain and the United States,occupation by the Empire of Japan during World War II and participation in Asian conflicts post-World War II such as the Korean War and the Vietnam War. The Philippines has also battled a communist insurgency and a secessionist movement by Muslims in the southern portion of the country.
The Philippine–American War,known alternatively as the Philippine Insurrection,Filipino–American War,or Tagalog Insurgency,emerged following the conclusion of the Spanish–American War in December 1898 when the United States annexed the Philippine Islands under the Treaty of Paris. Philippine nationalists constituted the First Philippine Republic in January 1899,seven months after signing the Philippine Declaration of Independence. The United States did not recognize either event as legitimate,and tensions escalated until fighting commenced on February 4,1899 in the Battle of Manila.
The governor-general of the Philippines was the title of the government executive during the colonial period of the Philippines,governed by Mexico City and Madrid (1565–1898) and the United States (1898–1946),and briefly by Great Britain (1762–1764) and Japan (1942–1945). They were also the representative of the executive of the ruling power.
Intramuros is the 0.67-square-kilometer (0.26 sq mi) historic walled area within the city of Manila,the capital of the Philippines. It is administered by the Intramuros Administration with the help of the city government of Manila.
The Philippine Revolution was a war of independence waged by the revolutionary organization Katipunan against the Spanish Empire from 1896 to 1898. It was the culmination of the 333-year colonial rule of Spain in the archipelago. The Philippines was one of the last major colonies of the Spanish Empire,which had already suffered a massive decline in the 1820s. Cuba rebelled in 1895,and in 1898 the United States intervened and the Spanish soon capitulated. In June,Philippine revolutionaries declared independence. However,this was not recognized by Spain,which sold the islands to the United States in the Treaty of Paris.
Sangley and Mestizo de Sangley are archaic terms used in the Philippines during the Spanish colonial era to describe respectively a person of pure overseas Chinese ancestry and a person of mixed Chinese and native Filipino ancestry. The Sangley Chinese were ancestors to both modern Chinese Filipinos and modern Filipino mestizo descendants of the Mestizos de Sangley, also known as Chinese mestizos,which are mixed descendants of Sangley Chinese and native Filipinos. Chinese mestizos were mestizos in the Spanish Empire,classified together with other Filipino mestizos.
During the Spanish colonial period in the Philippines (1565–1898),there were several revolts against the Spanish colonial government by indigenous Moro,Lumad,Indios,Chinese (Sangleys),and Insulares,often with the goal of re-establishing the rights and powers that had traditionally belonged to Lumad communities,Maginoo rajah,and Moro datus. Some revolts stemmed from land problems and this was largely the cause of the insurrections that transpired in the agricultural provinces of Batangas,Ilocos sur,Cavite,and Laguna. Natives also rebelled over unjust taxation and forced labor.
The history of the Philippines from 1898 to 1946 is known as the American colonial period,and began with the outbreak of the Spanish–American War in April 1898,when the Philippines was still a colony of the Spanish East Indies,and concluded when the United States formally recognized the independence of the Republic of the Philippines on July 4,1946.
Pío Valenzuela y Alejandrino was a Filipino physician and revolutionary leader. At the age of 23,he joined the society of Katipunan,a movement which sought the independence of the Philippines from Spanish colonial rule and started the Philippine Revolution. Together with Andrés Bonifacio and Emilio Jacinto,they formed the secret chamber of the society called Camara Reina. He took charge of the publication of Ang Kalayaan,Katipunan's first and only official publication. He was the one who tried to convince the exiled JoséRizal to join the revolutionary movement.

This resulted in direct Spanish control during a period of governmental instability there.
