You say this as if Anglos hadn't genocide you.

There's a one in ten chance that your paternal line goes back to Spain. That sort of explains the prevalence of Spanish surnames too.
Asher Campbell
The Spanish surnames thing was done with all natives to convert them to Christianity, even then only half of our population have Hispanic surnames.
Creating more insulares were not as advantageous as they were in Latin America.
Cameron Hall
I doubt most Filipinos have Spanish blood. probably the sample group from wherever 13% number came from are urbanites

come hvme filipino man

Ppl back than had more kids

Well it's actually less, 15,600 "Spaniards" (Not really even full Spaniards since they were mostly Latinos) however, the Philippine population then was also small, about 600,000, that's why 15,600 can have a genetic impact since the population was only 600,000.

You can't pull that off in other parts of Asia like Japan who had Millions of inhabitants.

most spaniards sent here were exiles or disgraced folks from spain itself
we were their australia except they didn't become natives and usually fucked off after a few years if they didn't die from the never ending skirmishes and insurrections from 1521 until the revolution itself
being sent here is punishment and a stain to their family's honour back in madrid, etc; doesn't matter if they're not nobility either
for every 1 spaniard here there were 500 mexicans and 500 other latinxes
in the 18th and 19th century racemixing was frowned upon by the spaniards themselves because they don't want their lineage to be tainted by indios
spaniards instead racemixed with the daughters of chinese merchants and their children racemixed with indios, creating the modern flip
mexicans and other latinxes didn't care and went muh dick

Tagalog is like 40% Spanish words

True there were several times mor Mexicans and Peruvians (Also exiled from their home countries) than Spaniards, that is until the 1800s upon the independence of the Latin American nation. Only during 1815-1898 did Spaniards come in more numbers than Latin Americans.
Eli Davis
Kek 600 Spaniards compared to 15600 Latinos.
The tributes count the total founding population of Spanish-Philippines as 667,612 people,[16][17][18] of which: 20,000 were Chinese migrant traders,[19] at different times: around 15,600 individuals were Latino soldier-colonists who were cumulatively sent from Peru and Mexico and they were shipped to the Philippines annually,[20][21] 3,000 were Japanese residents,[22] and 600 were pure Spaniards from Europe,[23]

Jason Smith
not surprising
spainiards were fewer in numbers but probably richer than local filipinos = more spainiards in the long term because less child mortality
Adam Roberts
Most of that Y-DNA came from Latinos born in Mexico (who had Spanish fathers) not people who were directly born in Spain.
Easton King
Philipinnes was like the marginal province far away of imperial ecumene.
The jewels of the Spanish empire were always Cuba, New Spain and Peru.

Depends on the era, at the start of the Spanish Empire the Philippines was more isolated since Spain's main colonies were in the Americas and the Philiippines only has a fraction of population of Mexico or Peru.
However by 1898 at the end of Spanish Empire; the Philippines, Cuba and Puerto Rico alone were the remaining Spanish colonies, of them all, the Philippines was the most valuable due to the fact that we had the most people.
1.7 Million Cubans vs 7 Million Filipinos. Hands down by the 1800s the Philippines was more valuable to Spain than Cuba.
Robert Brooks
>13% of Filippino Y-DNA is R1b
I highly doubt this. Maybe in the Manilla elite but it's probably 1% or less
Blake Price
I wouldn't say a territory had been more valuable just because it had so much more population. If anything it should come down to what resources or revenue they could get from it.
From Cuba I know they got a lot of sugar cane and tobacco, and it was so much closer to us. And probably infinitely much more tax revenue I would guess. What did Spain back then get from the Philippines? Some spices?
Genuine question. I'm ignorant on this subject and I'd like to know.
Luis Myers
>the Philippines was the most valuable
Wrong
The Philippines, Cuba and PR revolutions happened around the same time
Spain sent the most troops to Cuba because they valued them the most over the others, including us
They only sent a token force here and they almost won since they beat back the first insurrection of 1896
Landon Fisher
If you check the census studies it's possible.
The first census record 15,600 Latinos and 600 Spaniards in a total Philippine popoluation 660,000. 16,200 of 660,000 is 3% already, it compounds by time after the year 1600.
Adrian Powell
No fucking way we had 7 million that early
Charles Wright
Cuban economy wasnt really important but their position was important, Cuba is an important island to maintain power in the Caribbean Sea.
Charles King
Also maybe American colonization and recent sexpats can contribute to this.
James Green
Well Spain cultivated, Tabacco, Sugar too, and also Manila Hemp (The standard fibr for shipping worldwide then, same material used in Manila Paper and Manila Envelopes)
Landon Lee
The more troops sent to Cuba was due to logistics, Cuba is closer to Spain, whereas oif Spain were to reach the Philippines she had to traverse the Mediteranean, Indian and Pacific Oceans if you pass by Suez Canal whereas with Cuba you only need to pass by the Atlantic Ocean.
Matthew Richardson
Well that's according to Census records.
