Spain wanted to colonize the Philippines for three reasons.to colonize as many lands as possible to make itself the most powerful empire in the world.to gain access to spices in Asia.to spread the Roman Catholic religion to many countries as possible.
The Philippines had no official name before the Spanish came. The Philippines where separate island ruled by different tribes and it was actually the spanish who united them into one nation.
Uh, the question's unclear but I think I can answer it. The Spaniards did not plan on coming to the Philippines. The Spaniards were finding some spices and planned to go to the islands in the Pacific. They landed on the Philippines but the natives fought them off. The next time they came here, the natives welcomed them and they colonized the country. Is my answer related to the question? <:D
