RE: What Song Makes You Feel Patriotic About Your Country?

in Quello4 years ago

Philippines

Dayang-dayang Song

Folk and Novelty Mindanaoan/Visayan songs lits the patriotism inside me.

The cultural value of hearing about the rich and colorful songs made by the older generations cements that people in the Philipines are not savages or monkeys as the colonizers/religious men who first visited the country in between 1500s onwards.

Although living a yet simple life, stll far from other countries' status, the islands of the Philippines is already bursting in rich cultures, traditions, and pre-history, along with the barters, trades and cultural exchange with Arabs, Chinese, SEA kingdoms, Greeks, and many others.

The ancient people who traded/moved to the pre-1500s Philippines respected the people, the society, the culture, and the nobility of those who ruled the people.
