What country ruled the Philippines for 30years?

Answer 1

The Spanish Empire ruled the Philippines for 300 years, not 30 years. The United States and Britain then occupied the Philippines until World War II. The United States occupation began in 1898 when Spain handed the Philippines over to the United States. The British occupation in 1920, and that was more like an occupation of Manila and I don't exactly know when that ended. Britain occupying the Philippines is not something the average Filipino knows these days, but it did happen; the Philippines was part of the British Empire.
