what were the numerous changes made by the spaniards to the filipinos when they arrived to the islands?

Answer 1

Answer 2

Spanish-Mestizo, (in Filipino, Mistisong Kastila or Kastilaloy): a combination of native Filipino with Spanish, Mexican and/or Portuguese. Their features are distinguished by aquiline nose structures, light to dark wavy hair, generally lighter skinned peoples with olive to light brown complexions. Spanish-mestizos speak Filipino, though English is their primary language. Some, particularly those of the older generation have preserved Spanish as the spoken language of the home. They constitute the great majority of both upper, middle class and rarely intermingle with those outside their ethnic group. A great majority are either in politics or high-ranking executives of commerce and industry. Many can be found in the entertainment industry. Most elite Filipino family dynasties, political families, and the elite clans are Spanish-mestizo. Many Spanish-mestizos and Spaniards living in the Philippine emigrated to either the United States or Spain following World War II especially due to the destruction of Intramuros by the US Airforce, home to centuries-old Spanish families. Many also emigrated during the Marcos regime.

Most are successful and prosperous business people, and also highly involved in the running of the country. Some are also in the entertainment industry.

Four famous Filipino-Spanish mestizos residing in and outside of the Philippines, includes Pilita Corrales, Isabel Preysler (mother of pop singer Enrique Iglesias and ex-wife of Spanish music legend Julio Iglesias) and Lalaine Vergara, more commonly known for playing "Miranda Sánchez" (a Mexican-American character) on Disney Channel's highly-rated show, Lizzie McGuire.

Actor Rob Schneider, whose father was a German Jew and mother was a Mestiza.
