I am a Japonophile. However, the history, from the first mythical descendant of the Sun Goddess, to Heien Court at Kyoto, to the first Kamakura Shogunate, through the civil wars, to the Bakfuku of the Tokagawa Shogunate, to the restoration of a powerful and effective emperial court with the Emperor Meiji, past WWII and on into the present would take too long to type.

The filipinos´character traits today are very adaptable to change and resilient. These makes them in demand in the global market. However, the ethnicity of Filipinos stands at peril due to modernization and vast commercialization. Its not being preserved very well. But I would still go for Filipinos!
As for the history, the Filipinos were first inhabited by what we call Negritos or pygmies. They were soon followed by the Malays and the Indonesians. After quite some time, we were invaded by the Spanish conquistadores and in honor of the current Spanish king that time (King Philip), the islands was called Philippines. The colony lasted for 300 years and the country became the first Christian nation in Asia. Civil war broke out from the Spanish occupation and soon after, the Philippines were ruled by the Japanese until the second world war. It was only after the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki that finally, the Japanese left and along came Douglas Mc Arthur from the US and established a sort of commonwealth nation from the rubbles of the Philippines. Then, the country became independent to rule on its own.
That is the Philippines and Filipinos, in a nutshell!

Philippians. I don't know much about there history but, the Philippines has been populated over 100's of years by people from all the Asian countries. So most Philippians blood has like 5 different nationalities in it. Also they have gone through so much (corruption, war, exploitation, etc.) and still do go through heaps but, there all always so happy.
