The Spanish colonization of the Philippines began in 1565 when Miguel Lopez de Legazpi established the first permanent settlement. They imposed a system of governance, converted the locals to Christianity, and exploited the resources through tribute and forced labor. The Philippines remained a Spanish colony for over 300 years until the Spanish-American War in 1898, when Spain ceded it to the United States.
The Spaniards colonized the Philippines for over 300 years, from 1521 when Ferdinand Magellan arrived in the islands until 1898 when the Philippines gained independence after the Spanish-American War.

Uh, the question's unclear but I think I can answer it. The Spaniards did not plan on coming to the Philippines. The Spaniards were finding some spices and planned to go to the islands in the Pacific. They landed on the Philippines but the natives fought them off. The next time they came here, the natives welcomed them and they colonized the country. Is my answer related to the question? <:D
People in the Philippines could actually think, speak and write before being colonized by the Spanish. In fact, the islands were called the Philippines only after the Spanish came.
