To its north across the Luzon Strait lies Taiwan; westacross the South China Sea sits Vietnam; southwest is the island ofBorneo across the Sulu Sea, and to the south the Celebes Seaseparates it from other islands of Indonesia; while to the east itis bounded by the Philippine Sea and the island-nation of Palau.Its location on the Pacific Ring of Fire and close to the equatormake the Philippines prone to earthquakes and typhoons, but alsoendows it with abundant natural resources and some of the world'sgreatest biodiversity. At 300,000 square kilometers (115,831 sqmi), the Philippines is the 73rd-largest country in the world,[12]consisting of an archipelago of 7,107 islands that are categorizedbroadly under three main geographical divisions: Luzon, Visayas,and Mindanao. Its capital city is Manila while its most populouscity is Quezon City.With a population of more than 98 million people,[13] thePhilippines is the seventh-most populated country in Asia and the12th most populated country in the world. An additional 12 millionFilipinos live overseas, comprising one of the world's largest andmost influential diasporas.[14] Multiple ethnicities and culturesare found throughout the islands. In prehistoric times, Negritoswere some of the archipelago's earliest inhabitants. They werefollowed by successive waves of Austronesian peoples who broughtwith them influences from Malay, Hindu, and Islamic societies.Various nations were established under the rule of Datus, Rajahs,Sultans or Lakans. Trade with China also introduced Chinese cultureand settlement, which remain present to this day.The arrival of Ferdinand Magellan in 1521 marked the beginningof an era of Spanish interest and eventual colonization. In 1543,Spanish explorer Ruy López de Villalobos named the archipelago LasIslas Filipinas in honor of Philip II of Spain. The Spanish Empirebegan to settle with the arrival of Miguel López de Legazpi fromNew Spain (present day-Mexico) in 1565 who established the firstSpanish settlement in the archipelago, which remained a Spanishcolony for more than 300 years. During this time, Manila became theAsian hub of the Manila–Acapulco galleon fleet.As the 19th century gave way to the 20th, there followed inquick succession the Philippine Revolution, which spawned theshort-lived First Philippine Republic; the Spanish–American War;and the Philippine–American War. In the aftermath, the UnitedStates emerged as the dominant power; aside from the period ofJapanese occupation, the United States retained sovereignty overthe islands. After World War II,[15] the Treaty of Manilaestablished the Philippine Republic as an independent nation.[16]Since then, the Philippines has had an often tumultuous experiencewith democracy, with popular "people power" movements overthrowinga dictatorship in one instance, but also underlining theinstitutional weaknesses of its constitutional republic in others.The Philippines currently has one of Asia's fastest growingeconomies, and the nation's large population size and economicpotential have led it to be classified as a middle power.[17]Disclaimer: Droiddoc is not affiliated with any of the newsproviders.
