What makes the nation a nation ~~ Anonymous
Preface
The TL is focuses on a different philippines whether the Philippines is balkanized or not in this TL does not matter but for me this is the better scenario, the Spanish and the Americans still conquer the Philippines,but two different things happen..
1.Northern Philippines meaning Batanes down to Bulacan and Northern Metro Manila will be speaking an Alternate Version of Pangalatok or Pangasinense as their linguafranca, in this TL Pangasinense swallowed Gaddang, Irraya and the original languages spoken in Bulacan and Nueva Ecija which caused it to turn into a linguafranca, in Short Northern Luzon is more of a nation, the minority languages in Luzon are Ibanag, Kapampangan and Ilocano..Tagalog and Bikol are minority languages spoken in Southern Luzon..
I noticed that Pangasinan is more positioned to dominate Luzon...before a certain era..
2.There is a common visayan language..Spoken from Southern Luzon down to Northern Mindanao..
