Surviving Rizal

The Spanish were in shambles when the Americans started to declare war with the Americans, the British would see the Americans as a threat to their interests not just to the Spanish and the Spanish would bow to the inevitable on December 10, 1898, the Spanish would sell the Island of Luzon or Nueva Castilla to the British along with its associated islands island groups of Batan, Babuyan, Calamian and the other associated islands with it but the island of Masbate would not be included as it is a Visayan Island.



The Purchase would prevent the Spread of the revolution to the other island groups of the Philippines and the other is that the British and the Spanish would both defeat the Americans forcing the Americans to retreat from Cuba, Puerto Rico and the Philippines and the war would end in the humiliating treaty of Paris on April 11, 1899 where the Americans would be forced to retreat from Hawaii and Hawaii is later made a British protectorate.



Both the British and the Spanish would suppress the Philippine independence movement but the British would support the new identity movement of Luzon which would cause the Katipuneros who preferred an independent Luzon/Selurong to join the British and surrender and Rizal would support the British as well which would cause Luzon/Selurong have ties with the British to the present day[1].



1. Anything after this is extra, it can be considered as finished and I will explore the actual independence of the country and the fate of the country itself and the Philippines as well as the world surrounding it but I would not commit to it.
