HISTORY: The Philippians had a revolution from
1896-1898. Filipino independence struggle that,
after more than 300 years of Spanish colonial rule, exposed the weakness of Spanish administration but failed to evict Spaniards from the islands. The Spanish-American War brought Spain’s rule in the Philippines to a close in 1898 but precipitated the Philippine-American War, a bloody war between Filipino revolutionaries and the U.S. Army.

balance of trade. America sought to spread Christianity. There was a necessity of annexing so

RELATIONSHIPS
The US and the Philippines have a strong trade relationship.
More of a “Love-Hate” relationship more than anything, because of what the US and Philippines have been through.

ALLY? OR RIVAL? The US and Philippines are allies! The US is more of a guest rather than a
colonial power. Their friendship that the US is now
providing is much needed assistance to the victims of Typoon Haiyen (Yolanda).

US INTERVENTION TO PHILIPPINES The US sent a nuclear-
powered aircraft carrier USS George Washington- in Hong Kong for a port visit- and several other US navy ships “to make best speed for the republic of the Philippines” to provide humanitarian assistance and disaster support.

WHAT WE THINK… We see multiple
possibilities that could benefit the US.
Not only is this a way to show that we are reliable and caring, but that we are strong.
Also we feel as if the US were to ever face a difficult situation, the Philippines would do what ever they can to help out.
We feel as if the US is doing the right thing by helping and supporting the Philippines.
