There was a royal family in this nation that has been slaughtered and erased in the world history by Spanish Evil Empire! INDIAN INFLUENCES IN EARLY PHILIPPINE POLITICS 300 YEARS AGO BEFORE SPANISH AND RELIGIOUS GANGSTERS CAME. Living proof: actual footage of our gold of ancestors.
The Indian influences in early Philippine polities, particularly the influence of the Srivijaya and Majapahit thassalocracies on cultural development, is a significant area of research for scholars of Philippine, Indonesian, and Southeast Asian history,[1] and is believed to be the source of Hindu and Buddhist elements in early Philippine culture, religion, and language.[2][3][4] Because the Indonesian thassalocracies of Srivijaya and Majapahit acquired many of these Hindu and Buddhist elements through Indianization, the introduction of such elements to early Philippine cultures has sometimes been referred to as indianization, [3] and in more recent scholarship, as localization of Hindu and Buddhist beliefs.[5] Some scholars also place the Philippine archipelago within the outermost reaches of the Indosphere, along with Northern Vietnam, where the Hindu and Buddhist elements were not directly introduced by Indian travelers.
The most updated scholarship notes that there is no evidence of direct political or economic interaction between India and the various polities of the Philippine archipelago prior to the Philippines' European colonial era. Scholars such as Osbourne and Jocano instead suggest that "indirect cultural influence"[3][2] mostly arrived through these early Philippine polities' relations with the Srivijaya and Majapahit empires.[2][6] during the 10th through the early 14th centuries. This updates the theories of earlier scholars, who posited that Indian elements in Philippine culture suggested relations between the two societies as early as the 2nd and 3rd centuries BCE.[2] This also places the Philippines and the northern part of Vietnam outside the pattern of "Indianization" which took place elsewhere in Southeast Asia.
