The Coming of

Spain

GOD- the first aim of Spain was to spread Roman Catholic religion

GOLD-the second aim is to get rich.

GLORY-and to get political glory.

Why did the Spaniard Came?

Magellan’s VoyageFerdinand Magellan -he is a Portuguese explorer. -he studied

map making and navigation.

• Magellan’s voyage is not an accident, he really planned and wanted to find the Philippines because he heard that it was a very rich land.So he asked Portuguese King,King Manuel, to finance a project to sail to the philippines but the King rejected him.

• He travelled to the next country Spain, and talked the king and queen into supporting his expedtion,and they agreed.

• September 20 1517- the expedition begun .His fleet consisted of 5 ships and 265 men.

They sail westward across atlantic ocean down the tip of South America.Here crossed the secret passge that was known only to Magellan ”Strait Of Magellan’’.Then they crossed the Pacific Ocean and hopped from island to island until they reach Philippines.

In order to keep away the other rival European power from grabbing its new colony.

THE BIG POWERS:1) Spain2) Portugal3) England4) France5) Netherland

Why did Spain advertised its landing in the Philippines as a discovery?

In the 16th century they were the most bitter rivals for colonies in the world. They quarreled over the ownership of the land.

In 1493 Pope Alexander VI issued 4 papal bulls that divided the world between Portugal and Spain.

TREATY OF TORDESILLAS(1494) -shifting the demarcation line made by the Pope.• TREATY OF ZARAGOZA(1529) -they quarelled again over the ownership of Moluccas (spice island) so they made a new agreement to fix a new demarcation line.

Rivalry Between Portugal and Spain

The Spanish King sold his right to Moluccas to the Portugal King ,but this was a big mistake for Portugal.

WHY? because they only bought what it really owned.

March 16 1521-Magellan and his men saw the height of Samar.

After seeing Samar, the Spaniard landed at the island of Homonhon in Leyte Gulf on March 17 1521.

March 28-they were driven at Masao , Butuan in Agusan del Norte.

At Raja Kolambu and Raja Siagu met Magellan.In the finest tradition of filipino hospitality they welcomed the Spaniard.

Kolambu and Magellan made the traditional blood compact (sandugo) . This was the first blood compact by a Filipino and a white man.

First Blood Compact and Mass at Butuan

The first mass was held on the shore of Masao Butuan on Easter morning,March 31 1521.It was said by father Pedro de Valderama .

Then in sunset Magellan planted a huge wooden cross on top of a hill over looking the sea.

For Spain planting a cross was like planting a different flag on our land.

Magellan claim it and called it “Archipelago of San Lazaro’’

Magellan’s Claims the Philippines

April 7 1521-spaniard arrived at Cebu,they were guided by King Kolambu.

Raha Humabon refused to meet Magellan or let him land but King Kolambu(his friend) persuaded him.

The Spaniard was impressed in wealth and culture of Cebuanos.

April 14 1521-they made a blood compact and another cross was planted.

More than 800 cebuanos including Humabon his wife and son agreed to be babtized,They are the 1st Filipino Catholic.

The Spaniard Go to Cebu

Lapu-Lapu Defeats Magellan

Lapu-Lapu defeats Magellan –Magellan wanted all Filipino King in Cebu and Nearby islands to surrender to Spain. But king Lapu-lapu defied him.

King Zula asked Magellan for help in destroying Lapu-lapu.The two king in Mactan were bitter enemies .Magellan agreed to Zula for he also wanted to kill him.

April 27 1521- Magellan invaded Mactan.He boasted to Cebuanos that he did not need their help in fighting Lapu-lapu.Only 6o men attacked Mactan.

The battle was

short but very

bloody but in the

end lapu lapu

won.That makes

him the 1st

Filipino hero

The survivor returned to Cebu but they lost face.The Cebuanos did not respect them anymore .

The Spaniard also became abusive. Duarte Barbosa, one of the new commander , maltreated Enrique, a Malay slave of Magellan. So Enrique plotted King Humabon to kill the Spaniard.

May 1 1521-The Spaniard were attacked by Cebuanos.The Survivors quickly left for South; Trinidad sailed to Mexico but they were caught by the Portuguese.

The Spaniard Went Home

Victoria sailed for Spain via Indian Ocean and Africa Cape. It reached Spain on September 6 1521 w/ only 18 survivor.

in failure.

Other Spanish Expedition

This voyage is shorter and easier.The commander is noble and wise, Miguel

Lopez de Legazpi. His expedition had 4 ships and 380 men ,they sailed from Navidad Mexico on Nov.21 1564 and reached the philippines on feb.3 1565.

They were well received at Limasawa,Leyte,Bohol.In Bohol Legazpi and Katuna made a blood contact.

Cebu is the 1st Spanish city .The other island:Panay,Masbate,Ticao,Burias,and Mindoro.BATTLE FOR MANILAAt that time Manila was a rich Muslim Kingdom.Raha Sulayman,resisted the Spanish invaders.The 1st

Spanish expedition to invade Manila was led by Marshal Matin de Goiti. He led 120 Spaniard and 600 Visayan Warrior.

• The Manila became the capital(june 24 1527). • Spain conquered Luzon. THE FILIPINO LOST BECAUSE OF 3 REASON:• Lakan Dula and Sulayman did not help the

other filipino• The Spaniard have superior weapon.• About 600 cebuano archers helped the
