Similarities between the Philippines and its neighboring countries were the most tied when the Philippines wasn’t colonized by Spain. In a way, it was more like Thailand and the rest of the Southeast Asian countries. Everyone had gold, even the poor, the early people of the Philippines traded with surrounding countries such as Indonesia,Thailand and countries to the East of Asia as well as the middle east. If you look at the Philippines pre-colonial period in time, that’s when you can really see how similar the Philippines was in terms of wealth, culture and prosperity among the Southeast Asian countries. Philippines had a rich and very diverse culture. It was a thriving time for the Archipelago country. They, among the rest of the countries had beautiful written languages, their agriculture was thriving and they had already so many accomplishments. I would say that the Philippines was so similar to its neighbors that I feel like it if Spain never had colonized the country, Philippines would either be part of Indonesia,Malaysia and in an alternate dimension it could become part of Thailand. In fact, the Philippines was influenced by Buddhism during early civilization. So there could have been a possibility that a lot of Buddhist temples would have been present today in the Islands of the Philippines and the architecture would most likely also be built in an Asian style with curved roofs and detailed areas of the temples.
