The major colonizers of Southeast Asia were Europeans, Japanese and the U.S. All in all, there were seven colonial powers in Southeast Asia: Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, Great Britain, France, the United States, and Japan. From the 1500s to the mid-1940s, colonialism was imposed over Southeast Asia.

The U.S. colonized the Philippines in the aftermath of the Spanish-American War of 1898.

European, American, and Asian powers colonized SEA. The major European colonizers in SEA included Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, Britain, and France. The American power was the U.S.A.
