- Nice traditional dress! *Indonesia was conquered by the Dutch while the Philippines by Spain. By the way, the Philippines was named after king Philip of Spain back then. Hence, Filipinos for Felipe whereas his wife [queen Isabela] has a lot of areas named after her all-over the Philippines & that a lot of Filipina women have her name like my grandma! *But that's also on a decline since Filipinos nowadays are more into english names like me:) At any rate, The Colonial times furtherly increased the dis-similarity between the 2 nations since the Dutch & Spain have different customs.
