About this listen

While the Spanish conquistadors carved out an empire in the Americas and Asia, one corner of their domain never truly submitted: the Muslim sultanates of the southern Philippines. This episode of The Rise of Colonialism focuses on the centuries-long Moro resistance against Spanish colonization. We follow the story of the Moro people—from the sultanates of Sulu and Maguindanao to their fierce maritime raids that frustrated Spanish control. Lucas and Luna discuss the role of slavery, the Spanish use of fortresses like Zamboanga, and how the Moros maintained their independence through a combination of guerrilla warfare and foreign alliances, including with the Dutch. They also examine the legacy of the Moro Wars and how this history shapes the modern-day Philippines. Specific figures include Sultan Kudarat, Governor-General Sebastián Hurtado de Corcuera, and the Jesuit historian Francisco Combés. A deep dive into a frontline of colonialism that the Spanish could never fully conquer.
