Hmmm - IMO this is not a clear-cut "subjugated nations of Asia rise to claim their freedom". It is the Westernised elite - professing an European creed at that and Spanish speaking - revolting against the metropole. Much more like Latin America or - God help us - the USA.
Is that any worse than the Westernized clique of Sun Yat-sen and Chiang Kai-shek establishing the Republic of China on nativized Western concepts? Or Japan's sending young men to Europe, to learn the culture of the Western world? Or even India's western-educated elite being at the forefront of the establishment of India and Pakistan?
It's never really that clear-cut. Sure, Spanish was spoken by the Criollos, but they spoke Tagalog too, and Ilocano, and Cebuano, and all the other myriad tongues spoken on these isles.
Three choices: The descendants of Sebastián Elcano, the direct descendants of Rajah Sulayman or the, uh... well, "interesting" Tagean-Tallano clan.
We could go full Napoleon and have some strongman establish himself as emperor, like with Novales.
That is why the revolt will never succeed in the first place.
And yet it did. The only problem was the Americans immediately turning on our country and making it a colony because of Teddy Roosevelt having a hard-on for Manifest Destiny.
