How Westernized are the people of Maharlika also known as Filipinos? How similar are they culturally to other Asians?

>nearly 400 years of Spanish rule
>doesn't speak Spanish
Do you know any Nahuatl?

Why is Jow Forums obsessed with my country

They don't even share the same language with other islanders, only the southern Muslim part share some resemblance with Malays culturally.

Can't trace shit if there's nothing on the fist place.

Rampant consumerism.

fuck off michlan

Colonization. Similar to here. If the rulers want to be obeyed they need to impose their culture so they are seen as the "natural" state of things, not as aliens

Maharlikans are based.

They are proud Buddhist-animists who have their native script Babayin.

They have indigenous names as well!!

Why didn't Spanish ever become widespread there despite the Spanish largely stamping out their native culture otherwise?
Aren't their languages in the same family as Bahasa Indonesia?
>Can't trace shit if there's nothing on the fist place.
What do you mean? They had some stuff before the Spanish came

>I don't have shit taste
he says as he proceeds to post a pic of nino

Isn't that common everywhere
Seriously, though what is that? Meme mocking the Maharlika name campaign?

Well, it's not like they were the only Asians colonized but I guess they were the ones under European rule the longest

They were a US colony until 1946

And they also had the Spanish model: no genocide but conversion

Can any Filipinos confirm the Spanish never committed any genocide against them or forced conversion?

Like the name Maharlika itself ita manufactured, we were not a unified country before spics arrived.

You have to look at the individual islands and tribes to see the non westernized.

What American influences does Filipino culture have besides using English?

It's not a meme.

It's the native script of Maharlika and was even put to use a while back

Do you have any tribal people still?
There's nothing on wiki about it

The Maharlika name campaign is bullshit in itself

Marcos originally co-opted(stolen from the tagalogs) the term "Maharlika"(feudal warrior class) to describe his rather phantom "guerilla force" supposedly numbering in the thousands, that fought the Japanese, when it was discovered to be fraudulent and he intended to use "ghost guerillas" to bilk the US government of award/benefit money for veterans after WWII.

If you see a flip in Jow Forums or /a/ or /biz bullshiting posting it
make fun of them.

How easy was it for the Spanish to take control of Maharlika?

Yes, even muslims are considered as one.

I like best girls. Sorry user!

is the water still out there?

It wasn't formal but was promoted to revive by Rizalistas

Feudal society.
Convert the leaders promise them protection, the rest follows
Betray them and kill thier decendants and take over the lands.

Maharlika is derived from Maha which means great and Lika means class

More like Hinalika am I right ? Kek

Don't listen to that other indon flag, he's just talking out of his ass. The Filipinos are the same race as the rest of Austronesian Southeast Asia. Their culture also derived from the same common Austronesian origin. And yes, the language is still in the Austronesian language group.

Not everyone was affected and it seems like it was manufactured by Duterte's corruption for shady chink infrastructure deals.

>Aren't their languages in the same family as Bahasa Indonesia?
Their language is based on Tagalog, language from the northern parts. Bahasa Indonesia is based on Classical Malay which was the lingua franca of the archipelago and southern parts of Philippines but didn't influence Filipino.

>What do you mean? They had some stuff before the Spanish came
They weren't Indinized, and the Spanish pretty much replaced whatever deity they had with Jesus.

It's not even malay it cam from sanskrit.
No other tribe and group of people here use that word but tagalogs.

>Bahasa Indonesia

Bahasa Maharlika

We come from the same austronesian roots we share some cognate words so its easy to see how it is related, obviously now its develop differently.

does pinoys learn their own native script in their school ? here in Indo we have been taught each own ethnic native script up to middle school or high school except uncultured jakartan, some places and westaboo school

What are they like?
>Their culture also derived from the same common Austronesian origin
So you would disagree with the rest of people here saying their culture is mostly Western based?

You don't understand shit. Austronesian language aren't mutually intelligible, Malagasy people don't understand Hawaiian the same way you don't understand Filipino. If you think a bunch of people who migrated out of Formosa thousand of years ago still had unifying cultural impact on us then you're moron.

>They weren't Indinized
I thought they had some Indianized kingdoms. I remember reading about rajas ruling some parts of Maharlika before.
How strong are ethnic divisions in Maharlika?

More simmilar to malaysia/brunei and indonesia
But Im guessing a bit more tribal compared to them since they developed differently.

No.

The script is even on their money but braindead flips don't know what it is and don't care

Strong enough not to be called maharlika

Baybayin script is known as a tagalog script.

I Think there are only foyr known acripst here that have survived.
Bayabayin
Kapampangan
The ones muslims used Jawi, kawi? Not sure.
Mangyan.

What was it based on?
That looks pretty cool desu
So basically these tribes are like what Filipinos would be like if they hadn't been colonized? Or at leas a closed representation?

They were Indianized. They were in the Indosphere.

Even Tagalog myths are based on hindu ones.

All native Phillipine script is Indic like rest of asean

>Bayabayin
Searching with this name on wiki does give you results

Yeah, but you're talking about Tagalog, which is still pretty closely related to Malay and other languages in the area. Indonesians, malaysians, and Filipinos are cut from the same cloth. We're culturally and genetically similar, we all just developed a little bit differently over time. But in the end, we're still pretty much the same. As for other Austronesian groups like Maori and Hawaiians, they might not share much culturally anymore due to geographic distance, but we're still the same people.

No.
That's actually a very toxic assumption to make.
Not every tribe was a muslim and not every tribe lives in the cost.
Those muslims in the video probably dont even look like that before the spics arrived.

>dont even look like that before the spics arrived.
Why?

Years of modernity probably change them already

Hwaiians and Polynesians in general are actually mixed with Melanesians. That's why they look so different desu

the people from these areas are also quite heavily mixed with melanesians

There is no such thing as "parts of Maharlika" like it was some kind of kingdom before, this is actually very disrepectful to the other kingdoms, its like saying they didin't exists.

Why do so many Filipinas say they are Spanifh Filipino/Filipina?
Are they telling the truth?

But I'm not saying Maharlika was a kingdom

Also, looking at that map I'm wondering what would've happen if the Spanish didn't came. Would Maharlika be Muslim like Indonesia is today? Or there would still be some Indinanized kingdoms left today? Maybe the last Hindu places in the Malay archipelago besides Bali. What if the Luzon had become part of the Sinosphere like East Asia thanks to the presence of Pangasinan? Or the same in Mindoro thank to Mai?

""Maharlika"" would have never existed.

Maharlika is equally a degreading name as Philippines.
Unless they want to be cucked by tagalogs.

What should you be called then

We were not a unified country that has a name before spics arrived.

Michlan is a lawyer so he's already infinitely better than you or your waifu faggot

luzviminda or rizalina sounds nice

Why do you hate yourself?

Where does this come from?

LUZon, VIsayas, MINDAnao

We will never know, but there are a lot of Flips with Spanish heritage. Especially in Cebu, Pampanga, etc.

That's why Pampanga has the cutest women.
I'm 1/8 Chinese myself, surprisingly, and I live in the North.

Why these places?

That's where the Spanish were mostly living I guess? Not sure about that, but I am sure there are a lot of people with Spanish heritage there.
Some of them still speak Chavacano.

Isn't Chavacano spoken in Mindanao?

Literally just we wuzing,
This is how most of them look likeThey compensate cause they look very monkey like and tribal.

Oh look I'm a lawyer! I'm saving lives!

LMAO he will be some Law firm's slave arbiter at best.

>Why didn't Spanish ever become widespread there despite the Spanish largely stamping out their native culture otherwise?

Only the elite, Illustrados could afford to learn Spanish in school since by the time public schools were established the Americans were in control.

I fucken hate pinoys. Little brown ugly shits, and also Low IQ on top of it. Truly a terrible race

Okay.
Who hurt you, user?

Rude

They're probably invoking the one-drop rule. It's unlikely they have substantial Spanish DNA.
