As John Crawfurd put it in its History of the Indian Archipelago, in all of Asia the "Philippines abandoned did advance in civilization, wealth, and populousness beneath the colonial rule" of a adopted power.[224] John Bowring, Governor Accustomed of British Hong Kong from 1856 to 1860, wrote afterwards his cruise to Manila:
"Credit is absolutely due to Spain for accepting bettered the activity of a bodies who, admitting analogously awful civilized, yet actuality consistently absent by petty wars, had sunk into a confused and barbaric state.
The citizenry of these admirable Islands aloft the whole, may able-bodied be advised to acquire lived as calmly during the aftermost hundred years, able from all alien enemies and absolute by balmy laws adverse those from any added close country beneath built-in or European sway, attributable in some measure, to the frequently discussed appropriate (Spanish) diplomacy which assure the interests of the natives."[225]
In The Citizenry of the Philippines, Frederick Henry Sawyer wrote:

Spanish-Philippines again accomplished its aiguille aback the Philippine-born Marcelo Azcárraga Palmero became Prime Minister of the Spanish Kingdom.[231][232] However, account of apostasy and ability began to advance through the islands. Abounding Latin-Americans[233] and Criollos were mostly admiral in the army of Spanish Philippines. However, the access of the Latin American wars of ability led to austere doubts of their loyalty, so they were anon replaced by Peninsular admiral built-in in Spain. Criollo and Latino annoyance adjoin the Peninsulares resulted in the insurgence of Andres Novales which was authentic by bounded soldiers as able-bodied as above admiral in the Spanish army of the Philippines who were from the now absolute nations of Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Chile, Argentina and Costa Rica.

Manila, c. 1826
The landing of the Spanish advance to Sulu by Antonio Brugada.
In the Americas; above Filipinos were complex in several Anti-colonial movements, Filomeno V. Aguilar Jr. in his paper: “Manilamen and seafaring: agreeable the amphibian apple above the Spanish realm”, declared therein that Filipinos who were internationally alleged Manilamen were alive in the navies and armies of the apple alike afterwards the era of the Manila Galleons such as the case of the Argentine war of ability wherein an Argentinian of French descent, Hypolite Bouchard, who was a privateer for the Argentine army, aback he laid annoy to Monterey California, his additional ship, the Santa Rosa which was captained by the American Peter Corney, had a multi-ethnic aggregation which included Filipinos.[237] Mercene, biographer of the Book “Manila Men”, proposes that those Manilamen were recruited in San Blas, an accretion anchorage to Acapulco Mexico breadth several Filipinos had acclimatized during the Manila-Acapulco Galleon barter era.[238] Likewise, in Mexico, Filipinos like Accustomed Isidoro Montes de Oca had alternate in the Mexican Advocate war adjoin Spain too.[239] The contempo accord of above Filipinos in Anti-Imperial wars in the Americas started alike beforehand aback they assisted the Affiliated States in the aegis of New Orleans during the War of 1812, aback the Affiliated Commonwealth attempted to Reconquer America.[240] Likewise, in this period, above Filipinos were additionally alive in the Asia-Pacific abnormally in China and Indochina.

This resulted in the insurgence of Andres Novales a Philippine built-in soldier who acceptable abundant acclaim in richer Spain but chose to acknowledgment to serve in poorer Philippines. He was authentic by bounded soldiers as able-bodied as above admiral in the Spanish army of the Philippines who were from the now absolute nations of Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Chile, Argentina and Costa Rica.[245] The insurgence was atrociously suppressed but it adumbrated the 1872 Cavite Disobedience that was a forerunner to the Philippine Revolution.[234][235][236] However, Hispanic-Philippines accomplished its acme aback the Philippine-born Marcelo Azcárraga Palmero became a hero as he able the Bourbon Absolutism of Spain to the arch during his assignment as Lieutenant-General (Three Star General) afterwards the Bourbons acquire been deposed by revolutionaries.
