About seven months ago I made a thread about a Sinicized Philippines.
My interested about an althist Philippines peaked once more with this idea.
After the fall of the Sri Vijayan Empire, several princes tried to reestablish the empire. One of the princes founded the Kingdom of Singapura and when it fell, the Malacca Sultanate was established by Paduka Sri Maharaja Parameswara who fled Singapura after a Majapahit invasion on 1398. (Source came from wikipedia so please correct me if I'm wrong. Srivijaya.)
By ten, their was already a Srivijayan colony in the Philippines located in the Visayas known as the Confederation of Madja-as.
Their is also the Rajahnate of Cebu to.
So lets say one princes escapes to the Confederation and becomes a Datu and later on in the beginning of the 1400s expands throughout the Central Philippines. putting them under the Confederation. It grows strong enough later to field its own Navy and Army and also trades extensively with SEA, China, and Japan.
Will Spain still try to conquer the Philippines?

Decided to put this out because it was on my mind today. If any of you guys want to adopt this timeline, go ahead.
What I'm hoping for is a interesting discussion about this.
