Where the Philippines colonized or invaded?

Answer 1

The Philippines, primarily during the Spanish colonial period from 1565 to 1898, was not known for establishing overseas colonies but was involved in various military expeditions in neighboring regions. Notably, there were incursions into parts of Borneo, the Moluccas, and the Sulu Archipelago. After the Spanish-American War, the Philippines briefly engaged in military actions during the Philippine-American War, but it was primarily a subject of colonial rule rather than a colonial power itself.
