The Philippines independence day is celebrated every year on the 12th of June.

The reason this date is so important is that this marks another year of independence for the Philippines from the colonizer's, Spain but then came under control by the USA although the Philippines does have control over itself now and the US only had control for 3 years.

The way the Philippines celebrate this day is by nationwide parades. However, the main highlight is the police and military parade in Manila headed by the country's incumbent president, followed by a speech and a 21-gun salute.

The foods which are eaten are: 
Chicken adobo:                   Spicy Beef Stew (Caldereta)    Leche flan
