Philippine Civil War (Joshualexander)

The Philippine Civil War was a political and civil conflict in the Philippines, located at the whole of the Philippines and Indonesia (briefly). It was also a major war that happened in the World War III era and was the first (and only) civil war to happen in the Philippines. It lasted for 13 years from September 18, 2028, until July 3, 2039. The United Nations supported the Philippines in one side but the other side was communist and supported by the Internal Alliance.
The civil war started when many people in the Philippines realized that Bongbong Marcos Jr., was the son of Ferdinand Marcos. Since Marcos Sr. had a dictatorship, they knew Marcos Jr. Had managed to return the dictatorship. Many people began getting angry at Marcos after seeing his plans for the future and others began joining the Philippine Communist Party, which was allied with China and Russia. Soon, they evolved into revolutions, and the Second EDSA Revolution happened. With the revolutions rising, the Philippines knew it would fall into Communist rule and asked Bongbong Marcos to destroy the Communist party. The Philippines then declared war on the Philippine Communist Party. The United States then joined the war, but China and Russia then joined the war in the PCP's side.
Many battles began springing up over Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, with the deadliest one being the Battle of Leyte and the Battle of Boracay Island. With over 560,000 residents killed,

=== Realization of the return of the Marcos regime ===
The 1980s in the Philippines had been a bad day for the Philippine citizens. President Ferdinand Marcos Sr. hoped that the problems in the Philippines will return to normal. However, the EDSA Revolution and the assassination of Ninoy Aquino took things for the worst. This caused Ferdinand Marcos Sr. to get abdicated and before he escaped to Hawaii. Corazon Aquino replaced him. But the Philippine citizens hoped the problems in the Philippines would soon return to normal. This was known as the "Dark Ages of 1980".
Fast-forward 36 years later, Ferdinand Bongbong Marcos Jr. had reclaimed the presidential seat as his father would, and the Philippines is going smoothly. However, when World War III started, they realized their new president was really the father of what they had abdicated. They knew that Marcos Jr. being sworn as president would be really a comeback to the Dark Ages of 1980. Many people became really angry that started a new period called the Dark Ages of 2020. Well, Armando Liwanag, a Communist leader, hated his rule and his chunky monstrosity led to the rebels coming to the PCP. Even so, former president Rodrigo Duterte calls him ugly.

=== 2028 Philippine presidential election ===
Marcos Jr.'s first term in office has ended. However, his cabinet was so happy about his first term that they decided to vote him with a second term. Beginning on May 9, 2028, the 2028 Philippine presidential election then was held. About 18 million people voted for BBM to win the election while 6 million voted for ANL. China's Xi Jinping was a friend to ANL. Russia and China hoped that the Philippines would be electing ANL so they could destroy the United States. However, just like the 2022 election, Marcos Jr. gained a second term in office. After seeing the win for Marcos Jr., Armando Liwanag and the other PCP members became furious. Upon getting angry at the news, Armando decided to raid the Universidad ng Santo Tomas (University of Santo Tomas) headquarters in Espana Boulevard, Sampaloc, Manila. However, Marcos declared martial law about a few months after becoming president, and many soldiers were guarding the UST HQ at that time, preventing it from being destroyed. However, the PCP managed to bust down the back doors to the university and started destroying the school. About 800 soldiers guarding the school started opening fire at them: however, everyone was equipped with shields so the bullets reflected them. They killed about 18,000 students and teachers in the school, being their first victory. They then planned to assassinate Leni Robredo, but she was in the National Museum, and it was also guarded by soldiers. The plan was then removed.

Soon after the Philippine declaration of war, China and Russia declared war against the Philippines. However, Canada and the United States then joined the war since they were friends of Bongbong Marcos. With that, Canada and the United States sent their army in warships and planes to counter the Philippine Communist Party and its protectorates.

=== Battle of Corregidor Island ===
=== Invasion of Indonesia and Second Battle of Corregidor Island ===
Unfortunately, the Philippine Civil War was happening at that time as of the Indonesian War from 2027-2035, which was awful. Now inviting Indonesia into the war as a third-party, it was worse. In August 4, 2031, Emperor Naruhito of Japan sent 900,000 Japanese soldiers to counter the PCP. Indonesia made its move on November 16, 2031, by attacking the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao. However, natives in the Philippines also joined the war. They began fighting the PCP. Russia was still helping the PCP, but its economy was failing, but China was not the same. The Philippine Army returned to Corregidor Island to destroy 6 PCP ships that were parked in the island. However, the army knew that the PCP had tons of soldiers. Bongbong Marcos planned to blow up the Corregidor Electric Power Plant if there were many soldiers. There were too many PCP soldiers and they had set a huge 220-pound bomb earlier. The bomb was ready and was armed. When it happened, they put more bombs and connected them through a lever that will destroy them in 6 minutes. Once they were armed, they set the heating pans, the core heated to 110 degrees, and the pulled the collants to max heat, starting a combustion. The 6 minutes finished and all the bombs exploded. The Power Plant blew to pieces with a pressure of 180,000 psi., killing and burning about 9,900 soldiers in the PCP. The Philippine Army though that was a victory, but there were a lot of them. Meanwhile, at the Indonesian War, Indonesia managed to

In April 28, 2111, about 5 centuries after the founding of the University of Santo Tomas, UST chairman Michael Richell made condolences on the students killed in the Communist massacre and the bombing. He said that the bombers were pure evil and said it was not a fake bombing. He said that the school would be rebuilt.
10 centuries later,
