The first European navigator to reach the archipelago was Ferdinand Magellan, a Portuguese who sailed for Spain, in 1521.
The line drawn by the Treaty of Zaragoza in 1525 allocated the Philippines to Portugal, but because the Philippines had been named after Spanish crown prince Philipp (who went on to become King Philipp II. of Spain), an exception was made and the islands were
allocated to Spain. From 1565 to 1571 the islands were conquered by a Spanish force, and became a dependency
of the Viceroyalty of New Spain (Mexico), under the name of Spanish East Indies (with the Ladrones, Carolinas, Palau Islands and temporarily the Moluccas and the Spanish settlement on Taiwan as dependencies). The Captaincy General of the Philippines was established in 1573, the Real Audiencia of the Philippines in 1584. Communication with Spain went through Mexico, and took extremely long. The outposts on Taiwan, in the Moluccas and on Celebes (Minahasa) were lost in the mid 17th century. A brief British occupation of Manila 1762-1764 caused the Spanish authorities to introduce changes, such as direct communication with the Philippines (since 1766). When Mexico became independent in 1821, the Philippines (with dependencies) became a Spanish colony of their own. The 19th century brought new technologies such as the steam ship and telegraph. The opening of the Suez Canal greatly affected the Philippines, as now communication with Europe took much less time. Long neglected, in the Philippines a form of government dubbed friarocracy had emerged; monks (of Spanish background) had a controlling influence on society. Reforms had only partially improved the situation. In the 1890s an independence movement fought Spanish rule, when in the context of the Spanish-American War 1898 U.S. troops landed, and after a short campaign, established U.S. Rule over the Philippines. Guam became a separate U.S. possession; the Northern Mariana Islands and the Caroline Islands, at that time including Palau, were sold to Germany in 1899. The Philippines 1863-1898 .
