The Commonwealth of the Philippines was attacked by the Empire of Japan on 8 December 1941, nine hours after the attack on Pearl Harbor (the Philippines is on the Asian side of the international date line). Although it was governed by a semi-independent commonwealth government, the United States of America controlled the Philippines at the time and possessed important military bases there. The combined Filipino-American army was defeated in the Battle of Bataan and the Battle of Corregidor in April 1942, but guerrilla resistance against the Japanese continued throughout the war. Uncaptured Filipino army units, a communist insurgency, and supporting American agents all played a role in the resistance. Due to the huge number of islands, the Japanese never occupied many of the smaller and mor

  • 二戰時期的菲律賓,是指在1941年日本入侵菲律宾開始,直至1945年盟軍重新奪回菲律賓,而日軍和盟軍在此期間曾多次激戰。在大戰尾聲時,發生了馬尼拉大屠殺,估計共有十萬名菲律賓平民死亡,而多數是遭日軍殺害。抗日战争胜利后,菲律宾建立了纪念碑来纪念菲律宾抗日牺牲的烈士。 (zh)

  • Le Commonwealth des Philippines est attaqué par l'Empire du Japon le 8 décembre 1941, neuf heures après l'attaque de Pearl Harbor. Bien que gouvernés par un gouvernement du Commonwealth semi-indépendant, les États-Unis d'Amérique contrôlaient les Philippines à l'époque et y possédaient d'importantes bases militaires. L'armée combinée américano-philippine est vaincue lors de la bataille de Bataan et de la bataille de Corregidor en avril 1942, mais la résistance de la guérilla contre les Japonais se poursuivra tout au long de la guerre. Des unités de l'armée philippine non capturées, une insurrection communiste et des agents américains de soutien ont tous joué un rôle dans la résistance. En raison du grand nombre d'îles, les Japonais n'ont jamais occupé bon nombre des îles les plus petites e (fr)
