Re:Philipines and Moroland
I don't think my althistory about the Philippines and Moroland are too implausible. First, the population of Mindanao and Sulu would be only or maybe less than 3 millions if the islands did not joins the current Republic of the Philippines since that is the number of possible population without any further migrations from Luzon or the Visayas. You must know the policy of Commonwealth of the Phillipines in late 1930s that settled the people from Luzon or the Visayas to Mindanao was in order to make Luzon a less not crowded with growing population.

Second, before your argues that the Muslim majority is only limited in ARMM, you must know that in 1920s and 1930s, Muslim was majority in all parts of Mindanao and Sulu. They were made into a minority only due the Commonwealth policy of migrations in late 1930s as I said first before. That policy is the very truly reason why now Mindanao and Sulu are rampaged by an Islamic rebellion since in any sense, Mindanao and Sulu are further "colonized" by the Christian population from the north.

Third, Spanish is not the official language of the Philippines, but it WAS a common language or lingua franca used by the population of the islands prior to the Spanish-American War. In my timeline, the Spanish-American War did not happening in the Philippines and it was Japan, instead of the United States, that got the islands. The use of Spanish was drastically reduced in our real time due to the American colonial education policy that taught English in the schools. Filipino (or that I personally called as the "Tagalog-based Wikang Pambansa") is never in common use even in 1930s. Only after the Japanese invasion in 1940s that the Tagalog-based Wikang Pambansa started to be used in common use.

Fourth, if the political development of Mindanao and Sulu was independent from the Luzon and the Visayas one, I am 100% sure that the Moros will uses Malay as their unifying language. The Moros, like the Filipinos, is not a single homogenous people, instead they are a collection of many different tribes with common Islamic faith. Tausug or Sulu language will be limited only in Sulu. In fact, Malay was a very prominent language in Southeast Asia even before World War II. It was the language of trades and politics, not only in the Muslim-dominated regions, but also the Christian ones (Christian-dominated North Sulawesi used a Malay creole language since 19th century and Malay was a very popular lingua franca in Indonesia, even for the Dutch elites and Indos). Any political movements in Mindanao and Sulu on the Philippines without American colonization will be plausibly promotes Malay as the unifying language.

Fifth, Zamboanga is a Filipino spelling. For Mindanao population, it will be read instead with "j" Malay pronounciation, therefore it will be spelled as "Jamboanga".

Filipino? No, that isn't a true language. Its basically tagalog. The Philippines has great linguistic diversity, and tagalog is spoken by only a quarter of its people. A majority of filipinos are trilingual. While Spanish is a common language, its native languages are spoken by more people. I don't think they would make it their official language because of nationalistic reasons. Candiesrgood (talk) 08:12, July 23, 2015 (UTC)

I will considers about that. FirstStooge (talk) 21:41, July 23, 2015 (UTC)

I'm not complaining 'bout it, but, isn't "Wikang Pambansa" essentially tagalog? I can speak tagalog, and from what I see, its basically the same. Candiesrgood (talk) 07:39, July 30, 2015 (UTC)

That is a real-life problem, but in my timeline, Wikang Pambansa is supposed to be a standardized Tagalog, just like Bahasa Indonesia (standardized Malay in Indonesia), Bahasa Malaysia (standardized Malay in Malaysia), or like Urdu and Hindi, basically a same language, but with two different standardizations.
