Before achieving independence, the Philippines was controlled by several colonial powers. It was a Spanish colony for over 300 years until the Spanish-American War in 1898, after which the United States took control. The Philippines was then governed as an American territory until it gained commonwealth status in 1935. Ultimately, the country achieved full independence on July 4, 1946, after Japanese occupation during World War II.
The Belgian government controlled the country from 1908, when Leopold the Second, King of Belgium, was forced by international opinion to give up 'his' land, until 1960, when the country gained it's independence. France controlled the other Congo- Congo-Brazzaville.
The United States had invaded the Philippines before they entered the World War 2.

Yes, the Philippines was annexed by the United States after the Spanish-American War in 1898, following the signing of the Treaty of Paris. Hawaii, on the other hand, was annexed later, in 1898, but it was formally established as a U.S. territory in 1900. Therefore, while both were annexed in the same year, the Philippines was officially transferred to U.S. control before Hawaii.
The Philippines was controlled by three countries before gaining independence: Spain, the United States, and Japan. Spain colonized the Philippines from 1565 until 1898, when the Spanish-American War led to its cession to the United States. The U.S. governed the Philippines until 1946, with a brief period of Japanese occupation during World War II from 1942 to 1945. The Philippines finally gained full independence on July 4, 1946.
