nov 23, 1928 - The Republic of the Philippines declares independence.

Description:

Nationalist forces and socialist blocs clash in the streets of Manila. The local US government forces attempt to retake control of the region but are pushed back and eventually recalled by Douglas MacArthur, a staunch conservative Democrat. The American public views that cowardice as indicative of the Democratic Party. MacArthur still stays a renowned general.
