Hahahaha....Jose Rizal and Emilio Aguinaldo. Jose Rizal, basically started the Philippine Revolution against Spain. Emilio Aguinaldo, against the Americans. Unfortunately, both died in battle. Jose Rizal was captured and executed by the Spanish. Emilio Aguinaldo died in battle against the American colonists.
During the Spanish-American War, the Americans made attacks on Spain's Pacific possessions in the Philippines. Thus, when the Philippine Revolution occurred, the Americans were already involved, and this lead to the Philippine-American War.
It contains .0482 of an ounce of silver. Silver is currently at $16.86 per ounce so its worth about $0.81. There were 28.6 million minted in Denver that year. In that highly worn condition it is basically worth its silver content only. The Philippines was ceded to the United States as part of the settlement between Spain and the United States at the end of the Spanish-American War in 1898. A self-governing commonwealth was established in 1935. The U.S. granted the Republic of The Philippines full independence on July 4, 1946. During the United States administration, Congress was responsible for issuing coinage. The first U.S./Philippine coins were minted in 1903 in Philadelphia and San Francisco and bear both the Identities of the United States and "Filipinas" (Spanish for The Philippines). During the commonwealth period, coinage was issued primarily at the Manila Mint ("M" mint mark). During the Japanese Occupation no Philippine coinage was issued. In 1944 and 1945 coins were only struck at the Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco Mints.
No. Andres Bonifacio is one of the Heroes of the country, but he was not declared as a national hero of the country. In fact, despite popular belief to the contrary, nobody, not even Dr. Jose Rizal, has been declared by the Philippine government to be a national hero. Both Bonifacio and Rizal appear on unofficial lists of national heroes. Rizal is popularly called "the national hero", but since Renato Constantino declared in 1970 that Rizal was a "US sponsored hero" and that the Americans deliberately promoted him over Bonifacio to discourage dissent over their colonization of the Philippines, many now think that Bonifacio is a more important hero than Rizal. Both Rizal and Bonifacio have national holidays named for them.

My brother married a girl from the Philippines in the Philippines. They were both previously divorced. She is a Philippine citizen. He is a US citizen. I do not know whether this will apply to your situation but it sounds similar. You might want to check with the British consulate there to be sure.

Emilio Aguinaldo was a Filipino revolutionary leader and politician who played a key role in the Philippine Revolution against Spanish colonial rule.

Aguinaldo is considered a national hero in the Philippines for his contributions to the country's independence.
During the American colonial period in the Philippines (1898-1946), Philippine literature saw the emergence of English as a major language of literary expression alongside Spanish and Filipino languages. This period marked the beginning of modern Philippine literature with writers such as Jose Garcia Villa, Nick Joaquin, and Carlos Bulosan producing works that reflected the complexities of colonialism, identity, and cultural fusion. American influence brought new literary forms like the short story and the novel, as well as thematic elements that reflected the values, conflicts, and aspirations of both Philippine and American societies.
US law is not applicable in the nation of the Philippines, any more than Philippine law is applicable in the US, however both nations DO have extradition treaties with one another.
A major unintended consequence of acquiring the Philippines after the Spanish-American War was the emergence of a fierce resistance movement against American colonial rule. Many Filipinos expected independence following the defeat of Spain, but instead, the U.S. implemented a colonial regime, leading to the Philippine-American War from 1899 to 1902. This conflict resulted in significant loss of life and highlighted the contradictions of American imperialism, as the U.S. grappled with its role as both a liberator and an oppressor. Ultimately, this set the stage for complex U.S.-Philippine relations that continue to evolve today.
During the Philippine-American War, it is estimated that between 200,000 to 1 million Filipinos died, primarily due to combat, famine, and disease. The conflict lasted from 1899 to 1902, as the Philippines fought for independence from U.S. colonial rule. On the American side, approximately 4,200 U.S. soldiers lost their lives during the war. The war had significant and lasting impacts on both nations.
