hi everyone i am joshua diabegus from bs chemistry 2h1 so my topic is about 19th century philippines as results context so discussions on the 19th century philippines as results context are hereby divided in three aspects the economic social and political under this main three headings there are major historical events or issues which characterized by country during that era so my topic is focus on the economic context only so in the economic context at least four historical elements basically composed of the economic context of the era in which result was born the end of governing trade happened on 1565 the opening of suez canal happened on 1869 the rise of export of crap economy happened on 1820 and monopoly in the philippines happened on post-guardian era so we begin in the end of guardian trade 1565-1815 our locals are only trading with china japan thailand india cambodia borneo and the mulukas when the spanish colonizers came to the philippines in 1565 the spanish government closed the ports of mandalaya to all countries except mexico thereby giving birth to the manila acapulco trade popularly known as the galleon trade the galleon trade was a ship named galion trade going back and forth between manila and acapulco mexico it started when undressed the ordanetta in convoy under miguel lopez de legaspi discovered a return route from cebu to mexico in 1565. the trade served as the central income business for spanish colonists in the philippines through this trans-pacific trade the exports went to mexico includes chinese tea and textiles mingo di manila tamarind and rice carabao cockfighting tuba and fireworks display and impress from mexico includes flora and fauna guava avocado papaya pineapple horses and cattle because of the guardian trade manila became a trading hub where china india japan and south east asian countries sent their goods to be consolidated for shipping those who ran the hub and did the most work were primarily chinese they arrived in the philippines in junks yearly bringing goods and workforce with a huge migration of chinese because of the guardian trade the spaniards feared them so they taxed them sent them out the parian and eventually the tension rose massacre some of them i quote such massacres were at their height in the 17th century from suspicion and ease and fear until the spaniards and chinese learned with each other in the next few centuries i think the quote is self-explanatory because during some 17th century due to detention many people were killed the manila galleon trade allowed modern liberal ideas to enter the philippines eventually and gradually inspiring the movement for independence from spain on september 14 1815 the guardian trade ended with mexico's war of independence the next event we'll be talking about is the opening of suez canal it happened on 1869 the opening of swaz canal and the invention of steam ships which lessened the travel time from spain to the country to 40 days made this more convenient swells canal is an artificial sea level waterway in egypt the soviet canal connects the mediterranean sea to the red sea through the isthmus of swaz constructed by the swells cannot company between 1859 and 1869 under the leadership of french diplomat ferdinand d lescepts it was officially opened on november 17 1869 before the opening of canal a steamer from barcelona had to sail around the cape of good hope to reach manila after a menacing journey of more than three months with the sweze canal the voyage lessened to only 32 to 40 days the opening of swaz canal became a huge advantage in commercial enterprises especially in europe and east asia more importantly it served as a significant factor that enabled the growth of nationalistic desires of fosariza and the other filipino illustrators the swiss canal expedited imperation not only for commercial products but also books magazines and newspapers with liberal ideas from america and europe which ultimately affected the minds of rizal and the other filipino reformers the political view of western liberal thinkers entered the philippines furthermore the reduced route stimulated more on spaniards and europeans with liberal ideas to come to the country and interact with local reformers the availability of suez canal has also encouraged the astrados especially jose rizal to pursue education abroad and learn specific and liberal in european academic institutions their social dealings with liberals in the west have influenced their thoughts on nationhood politics and government so here are the map of the suez canal and a photo of swiss canal with ships so the last event which i will be talking about is rise of the export of crop economy happened on 1820 to 1870. so during the guardian trade most of the spawn yards on the philippines were engrossed in maritime trading undertaking between manila and mexico the exploitation of the philippines natural resources and the progress of an expert crop economy rare phenomena of the 19th century not the spaniards rules early period some years after the end of guardian trade between 1820 to 1870 the philippines was well on its way of developing an expert crop company products such as sugar manila hemp and coffee were produced for foreign markets while imported goods from the european factory industry found their way into the many parts of the philippines these various economic activities in the new expert crop economy in the country provided lots of opportunities for the expanding chinese population some expert crops are hemp sugar and tobacco the development of the expert crop industry in the philippines was motivated by the commercial undertakings of north european and north american merchants who provided capital organization and access to foreign markets and sources of imports but since they based their operation in city ports especially manila they needed agents who could distribute imports in the interior and go buy or buy up goods for export this role was assumed primarily by the chinese and that ends my discussion and thank you for watching and listening
