The Philippines was home to early Malay and Austronesian societies before Spanish colonization in 1565. After over 300 years of Spanish rule, it was ceded to the U.S. in 1898 following the Spanish-American War. The country gained full independence in 1946. The Philippines has since developed into a dynamic economy, with a strong diaspora and growing industries like technology and tourism.
