It is a vicious cycle, a sad reality we Filipinos have to face, that Filipinos killing, back-stabbing each other for their gain. The same goes for the 16 presidents of the Philippines. They all had their fair share of these heinous acts for their good, but, in this paper, I will be talking about 6 presidents in particular; from 5th President Manuel L. Roxas to the very

History helped me learn about the mistakes people have made in the past and striving in order to do better for those who come before me. Not just the History of my soil, but the History of the planet as a whole. What kind of lives people lived before? What is the culture over there?

To make us feel like we should be thankful that they have colonized them, we needed them to progress. The colonizers wrote History in their perspective, in their favor of making them look good. The Filipino people need History written in our viewpoint, written by means of us, experienced by means of us. Our History is our struggle; the struggle is the essence of life. We need the truth; the Filipino people need to know the truth and open their eyes from the lies fed to us for generations and generations to come.

We need to learn about the true history of our country to learn from the mistakes of our ancestors and improve those achievements that they have contributed. Let the Filipino
