Kedatuan Of Dapitan
Dapitan Kingdom (also called as Bool Kingdom) is the term used by local historians of Bohol to refer to the Dauis– Mansasa polity in the modern city of Tagbilaran and Panglao Island. The volume of artifacts unearthed in the sites of Dauis and Mansasa may have inspired the creation of the legend of "Dapitan Kingdom" through piecing together the oral legends of the Eskaya people and historical events such as the Ternatan raid of Bohol and the migration of Boholanos under Datu Pagbuaya to Dapitan. History Early History In 1667, Father Francisco Combes, in his ''Historia de Mindanao'', mentioned that at one time in their history, the people of the island of Panglao invaded mainland Bohol and subsequently imposing their economic and political dominance in the area. They considered the previous inhabitants of the islands as their slaves by reason of war, as witnessed for example by how Datu Pagbuaya, one of the rulers of Panglao, considered Datu Sikatuna as his vassal and rela ...

Monarchy
A monarchy is a form of government in which a person, the monarch, is head of state for life or until abdication. The political legitimacy and authority of the monarch may vary from restricted and largely symbolic (constitutional monarchy), to fully autocratic (absolute monarchy), and can expand across the domains of the executive, legislative, and judicial. The succession of monarchs in many cases has been hereditical, often building dynastic periods. However, elective and self-proclaimed monarchies have also happened. Aristocrats, though not inherent to monarchies, often serve as the pool of persons to draw the monarch from and fill the constituting institutions (e.g. diet and court), giving many monarchies oligarchic elements. Monarchs can carry various titles such as emperor, empress, king, queen, raja, khan, tsar, sultan, shah, or pharaoh. Monarchies can form federations, personal unions and realms with vassals through personal association with the monarch, whi ...

Bulusan (municipality)
Bulusan, officially the Municipality of Bulusan ( Waray Sorsogon: ''Bungto san Bulusan''; war, Bungto han Bulusan, tl, Bayan ng Bulusan), is a 4th class municipality in the province of Sorsogon, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 23,932 people. History Pre-Spanish period Long before the Spaniards arrived, the natives of Bulusan were living in organized though scattered settlements. Some lived in what used to be Inarado (now Licod or San Rafael), others in Ilihan, some in Pinayagan, and still a number lived in Capangihan — a place near the Paghasaan and Bayugin Rivers. These settlements are distant from the seacoast and upland. The reason could be the presence of Moro pirates who used to attack the town, especially the coastal areas, robbing the natives of their gold and whatever else came to be lying around, and burning the houses afterwards. Due to these Moro-related disasters, it was a wise move to locate the settlements on higher ground. Re ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Battle Of Manila (1570)
The Battle of Manila (1570) (Spanish: ''Batalla de Manila en el 1570''; fil, Labanan bago ang pagsakop ng Kastila sa Maynila; ) was fought in Manila between the native Filipinos led by King Sulayman, and the Spaniards led by Martin de Goiti, ''maestre de campo'', on 24 May 1570. Goiti's forces were victorious and Manila later became the capital of the Spanish East Indies. Events By the late 1560s, Miguel López de Legazpi who had left Mexico with a retinue of Spanish and Mexican soldiers, was already searching for a more suitable place to establish the Spanish colonial capital, having found first Cebu and then Iloilo undesirable because of insufficient food supplies and attacks by Portuguese pirates. He was in Cebu when he first heard about a well-supplied, fortified settlement to the north, and sent messages of friendship to its ruler, Rajah Matanda, whom he addressed as "King of Luzon." In 1570, Legazpi put Martin de Goiti in command of an expedition north to Manila and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Juanga (ship)
A juanga or joanga refers to large-sized ''kora-kora'', ''karakoa'' and ''lanong''.Mallari (1989). p. 424. They are used all throughout the Philippines and Eastern Indonesia, in Maluku smaller versions were popular and are still used to this day (Kora-kora). They are propelled by oars but are not used for carrying cargo.Poesponegoro (1981). p. 114. Etymology The word juanga and joanga are cognates with " junk", which refers to several types of ships in Asia. Retana and Pastells considered the name derived from the Chinese word ''chun'', which means boat. Paul Pelliot and Waruno Mahdi reject the Chinese origin of the word "junk". Instead, it may be derived from "jong" (transliterated as joṅ) in Old Javanese which means ship. The first record of Old Javanese ''jong'' comes from an inscription in Bali dating to the 11th century CE. It was first recorded in the Malay and Chinese language by the 15th century, when a Chinese word list identified it as a Malay term for ship, thus pr ...
