This story is never been told in the Philippine history or even told to the young generation or the so-called, millennia.
It clearly describe the beauty of the Philippine if we are going to re-open the picture of the past hundred of years ago before the Spanish colonial period. The real name of this beautiful country is not really "philippines" because it is just renamed from the name of King Philip of Spain.
What is Philippines before invaded by the greedy Spanish?
Long before the Spaniards came to Philippines shores, the Philippine archipelago consisting of 7,169 islands with an area of 1,049,212,962 nautical square miles, including Guam and Hawaii was known as Maharlika. It was populated by Malays and ruled by the Tagean Tallano clans from the ninth to the fifteenth century.
When the Spaniards started ruling the Philippines archipelago, they renamed it Hacienda Filipina. Of the many kingdoms in Asia, Maharlika was one of them under King Luisong Tagean Tallano, the father of Raja Lapu-Lapu and Raja Soliman, the successors of King Marikudo of the Sri Vishayan Empire. Its principal products at that time were peanuts (mani) exported to Mexico and European countries and Herbal plants known as “Nilad” with some medicinal qualities which were exported to Mainland China.
MAHARLIKA THE ORIGINAL PHILIPPINE NAME
With the passage of time, the Chinese traders changed the name Maharlika to Maynilad or Maynila. As in olden days, the kings and their families own their kingdoms and distribute portions to their subjects, especially to the members of the royal clans. This is exactly what happened to the Philippine archipelago, it was owned by the Tagean Tallano clans.”
The real name of the Philippines is "Maharlika." which means "majestic or royal." If you are going to look at the picture, the original name of this beautiful country is more beautiful and majestic than the word philippines.
ALREADY ESTABLISHED
The Spanish ruled the Philippines 300 years, that's the long period of time. Before Magellan landed in our territory, we are already civilized because of the greatness of Maharlika our very own Nation. The Kingdom of Maharlika was already established because of the Tagean-Tallano, the royal Maharlikan (Filipino) blood.
MAHARLIKA LANDS
Only one royal family holds the title for the whole Philippines, Borneo, Guam, Marianas Island, Hawaii, Da Nang Vietnam, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Kuril Islands, etc.
The Land of Maharlika was composed of the Philippines, Borneo, Guam, Marianas Island and Hawaii, and was ruled by a certain King Luisong Tagean [later changed to Tallano for fear of Spanish execution].
Other territories that were said to be paying tributes to the Maharlikan Kingdom include:
- Da Nhang – Vietnam,
- Hong Kong,
- Taiwan,
- Kuril Islands
This claim is supported by surveys made as early as 9th century, acknowledged by British monarchy in 14th century. However, court documents, land title OCT No. T-01-4, indicate the Tagean [Tallano] Clan only owns the whole Philippine archipelago, but ignored the other parts of the Maharlikan Kingdom, i.e. Sabah Borneo, Marianas Islands , Guam and Hawaii, an early attempt of a major land grab by the British and other colonialists.
Even in the 1935 Philippine Constitution, the number of islands were further reduced from 7,169 to 7,100 only, by the oligarch controlled legislative.
The Filipino royal family really want's to re-establish again our country just like before. If you remember, when Ferdinand Marcos run for President, he always loudly telling to the Filipino people that, "this nation can be great again." He is not pointing about the greatness of our country during Spanish colonial, but to the Maharlika period.
“There will come a time that the poorest of the poor will no longer be squatters in this country’.

This story must be told to every Filipino, and if possible, Philippine history needs this history to be written in history books.
