I'm assuming you were asking " How was the Philippines civilized?". The Philippines used to be a colony of Spain from 1521-1898. Spaniards colonized the country, and introduced Catholicism to its people. The Spaniards had a tremendous influence in the country's identity. Some of Spain's influence is evident in its religion, filipino's last names, building structures, cuisine etc. Besides the Spaniards, the Philippines was also highly influenced by China, and the United States. All of these influences helped shaped the country's identity.
