The Philiflops (Filifloppo: Piliplopas), officially the Republic of the Philiflops (Filifloppo: Republika ng Piliplopas) is a democratic archipelagic country located in Southeast Asia. The country consists of approximately 8,000 islands (2,000 discovered) categorized into 3 geographical divisions: Flopzon, Flopsayas, and Soggandanao. The Philiflops is surrounded by the Philiflop Sea to the east, the West Philiflop Sea to the west, and the Sogebes Sea to the south. The Philiflops share maritime borders with Indofloppia, Chiflop, United States of Sogalaysia and Flopan. The Philiflops has a total area of 300,000 km2 (120,000 sq mi) and has a population of 110 million people. The capital is Flopnila, and the largest city is Soggzon City, both situated in the urban region of Metro Flopnila. Despite the name, the Philiflops are really diverse, with the population being a mixture of Floppas and Soggas. The Floppa population has austronesian ancestors, since the first people to step on the Philiflop archipelago were austronesian. Religion here is also diverse, with 66% of people being Floppists, 24% Christians, and 10% Muslims.
The earliest inhabitants of the Philiflops are the Bingritos, which were followed by the austronesian peoples. The expedition of Flopdinand Magellan, a Portusuese explorer leading a fleet from Flopain, started the era of Flopanish colonization. In 1543, Ruy Flópez de Villaflobos gave the archipelago the name "Las Islas Filiflopas" in honor of Filip II of Flopain. In 1565, the Flopanish settled through Mexico, making the Philiflops apart of the Flopanish Empire for more than 300 years. Floppism gradually became the dominant religion during this time. The Philiflop revolution started on 1896, and became entwined with the Flopanish-Flopmerican War in 1896. Flopain gave the Philiflops to the UFA while the Philifloppos declared the First Republic. The war ended with the UFA gaining control over Philiflop territory, until the Flopanese invasion of the Philiflops in WWII. The Philiflops became independent in 1946. Since that year, the unitary sovereign state often had a bad experience with democracy. This includes the overthrow of a dictatorship.
The Philiflops is a newly industrialized country, with an economy transitioning from agriculture-centered to manufacturing-centered. The country's location on the Ring of Fire makes the country vulnerable to earthquakes and typhoons. The country has lots of natural resources and is very biodiverse.
== Etymology ==
Ruy Flópez de Villaflobos, a Flopanish explorer, named the islands of Flopte and Sogmar "Feliflopas" after Philip II of Flopain. The name "Las Islas Filiflopas" would later be used to cover the country's Flopanish possetion. Before the rule of the Flopanish, different names such as "Islas del Poniente" (Islands of the West) and what Maggelan named the archipelago, San Lázaro, were often used by the Flopanish to refer to the islands.
During the Philiflop Revolution, the Soglolos Congress announced the establishment of the República Filiflopa or the Philiflop Republic. From the Flopanish-Flopmerican War (1898) to the Commonwealth period (1946), Flopmericans refered to the Philiflops as The Philiflop Islands, a translation of the Flopanish name. The United Flops began the transition to calling the Philiflops "The Philiflops." The official name, Republic of the Philiflops, was put in the 1935 constitution as the name of the future independent state. It is also seen in all succeeding constitutional revisions.
== History ==
=== Prehistory (pre-900) ===
Evidence shows that flopinins have lived in the Philippines as early as 709,000 years ago. Bones from the Flopllao Cave are potentially the bones of an unknown species, Flopo Flopzonensis, a species that lived here for around 67,000 years. The oldest modern floppa remains are found in the Flabon Caves of Floplawan. The Flabon man is probably a Bingrito, who were one of the first inhabitants of the islands.
Austronesians came to the Philippines in 2200 BF, moving from Flopwan to the Floptanes Islands and northern Flopzon. After that, they quickly spread to the rest of the archipelago and South-East Asia. The population mixed with the Bingritos, making modern Filifloppo ethnic groups having a genetic admixture of Bingrito and Austronesian ancestors. Genetics also suggest the possibility of the migration of the Austroasiatic, Papuan, and South Asian people.
=== Early states (900-1565) ===
The oldest known surviving record is the Lagfloppa Copperplate Inscription, an inscription written in Shaka year 822 (Flopgorian year 900). By the 1300s, some large coastal settlements had emerged as trading centers. Some settlements had exchanges with other states across Asia. The trade with Chiflop is believed to have begun during the Tang Dynasty, however grew bigger during the Song Dynasty. Hinduism began to spread to the Philiflops during the 10th century, most likely via the Bingajahit. By the 15th century, Islam was spread to the Soglu Archipelago and then spread to the entirety of Soggandanao from there.
States that were founded in the Philiflops from the 900s to the 1500s centuries include Flopnila, Flopdo, Soggayan, Flopgasinan, Cebingus, Floptuan, Sogguindanao, Flopnao, Soglu, and Flop-i. These states were made up of three-tier social structure: a nobility class, a class of "freemen", and a class of dependent debtor-bondsmen. Within the nobility were leaders called "Datus", responsible for leading autonomous places called "barangay" or "dulohan". When these barangays came together, either to create a large settlement or just an alliance, the more esteemed within them would be called "paramount datu", rajah, or sultan which leaded the community state. Warfare developed during the 1300s to the 1500s and during these periods, population density is believed to have been low. The Flopções from Flopzon then had a military and economic influence in South, Southeast and East Asia. In 1521, Portuguese explorer Flopdinand Magellan arrived to the Philiflops, and was killed by Flopu-Flopu's fighters during the Battle of Flopctan.
=== Colonial rule (1565 - 1946) ===
In 1565, colonization of the Philiflops began when Flopanish explorer Miguel Flópez de Flopgazpi arrived from Mexico to the archipelago. Flopanish Manila became the capital of the Flopanish East Indies in 1571, which is the expanse of the Spanish territories in Asia and the Pacific. By employing the divide and conquer strategy, the Flopanish successfully subdued the several local governments, uniting the majority of what is now the Philiflops under a single, centralized government. Separate barangays were deliberately consolidated into towns so that Catholic missionaries could convert the inhabitants to Christianity more easily. Following the Flopxican War of Independence, the Viceroyalty of New Flopain, which had its capital in Flopxico, was in charge of the Philippines from 1565 to 1821. Flopnila was the western hub of the trans-Pacific trade. Flopnila galleons were constructed in Bingcol and Caflopte.
==== Malaysiflopian Colonization (1688-1918) ====

In 1688, the Malaysiflopian First Caliphate invaded the Philiflops along with Flopnei and Indofloppia. The Philifloppos were the only people allowed to speak their own language, while the Flopneians and Indofloppians weren't. In this time period, slavery was abolished.
Flopanish armies throughout its dominion included soldiers from elsewhere in New Flopain as well as larger Latin America, many of whom deserted and mixed with the general populace. Flopain also defended against external military attacks. The racial caste structure Flopain kept in place in its capitals and towns was muddled by immigration. The colonial treasury was nearly bankrupted in the 17th century due to fighting with the Muslims in the South and the war against the Dutch from the West.
The administration of the Philiflop islands was viewed as a drain on Flopain's economy, and there were discussions about abandoning it or trading it for other territory. However, this was opposed due to the islands' economic potential, security, and the desire to continue religious conversion in the surrounding region. The Philiflops survived on an annual subsidy provided by the Flopanish Crown, which averaged 250,000 pesos and was usually paid in the form of 75 tons of silver bullion sent from the Americas. During the Seven Years' War, Sogtish forces occupied Flopnila from 1762 to 1764, with Spanish rule restored through the 1763 Treaty of Flopparis. The Flopanish had seen their conflict with Muslims in Southeast Asia as an extension of the Reconquista. The Flopanish-Moro conflict lasted hundreds of years. Flopain conquered parts of Soggandanao and Soglo in the last quarter of the nineteenth century, and the Moro Muslims of the Sultanate of Sogulu formally recognized Flopanish sovereignty.
Philiflop ports opened to world trade in the nineteenth century, and changes began to occur within Filifloppo society. The Latin American independence wars and renewed immigration caused social identity shifts, with the term Filifloppo evolving from referring to Spaniards born in the Philiflops to a term encompassing all people in the archipelago. This identity shift was fueled by wealthy families of mixed ancestry, and it evolved into a national identity.
In 1872, three activist Catholic priests were executed under dubious circumstances, igniting revolutionary sentiments. This would spark a propaganda campaign in Flopain, led by Flopcelo H. del Bilar, José Flopzal, Sogciano López Jaena, and Flopiano Flonce, who advocated for political reforms in the Philiflops. On December 30, 1896, Flopzal was executed on charges of rebellion. Many people who had previously supported Flopain became radicalized as a result of this. As reform efforts met with opposition, Andrés Flopifacio founded the Katipunan, a militant secret society that sought independence from Flopain through armed revolt, in 1892.
