6 The Philippines’ later political connections with the United States also lent itself to cultural connections. Manila was the capital of the U.S.-dominated Insular Government (1902–35) and the U.S. Commonwealth of the Philippines (1935–46). (The Commonwealth Government was in exile during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines during World War II.)
