The Philippines acquired its present territories through a combination of historical events, colonization, and international treaties. Initially, the archipelago was home to various indigenous groups before Spanish colonization began in the 16th century, which established control over most of the islands. After the Spanish-American War in 1898, the Philippines was ceded to the United States, leading to further territorial changes. The boundaries were largely defined by the Treaty of Paris (1898) and subsequent agreements, solidifying the current territorial limits recognized today.
