Some key advantages include its strategic location that allows for trade relations with many countries in Asia and the West. Additionally, its natural resources support a thriving tourism industry and it has a rich cultural diversity. However, disadvantages include issues with smuggling due to its many islands, slow internal communication between islands, distant regional governments from the capital, and high security costs to protect its scattered territories.

Moro National Liberation Front & Moro Islamic Liberation Front
The Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) was created in 1969 to establish an independent Muslim state in the southern Philippines. It began a rebellion in 1972 that led to clashes with government troops. Peace agreements in the 1970s and 1980s established autonomous regions but did not satisfy MNLF goals. The Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) split from MNLF in 1984, also seeking an independent state. It rejected autonomous regions and clashed with government troops until peace agreements in the 2000s established new autonomous regions while delays have stalled full implementation. Both groups have had on-and-off peace negotiations and ceasefires with the government over several decades while pursuing self-determination.
