25. Line Demarcating the Moro Homeland and Ancestral Territory from
the Philippines during the American Colonial Period. This
demarcation can be seen in The Philippines Geographical Reader
by Samuel MacClintock, New York, American Book Company, 1903,
pp. 6-7.

26. HISTORICAL REVELATION:
 The Bangsamoro fought and defended their
homeland against the Spaniards, Americans and
Japanese, did not gave up nor surrendered and
neither have been conquered.
 The inclusion of the Bangsamoro
territory/ancestral domain to the Philippines was
without their plebiscitary consent, a violation of
their rights as guaranteed by various United
Nations instruments guaranteeing peoples’ right
to self-determination.
 Several resistance and protests made by the
Moros led by the Sultans in Maguindanao, Lanao,
and Sulu against the inclusion of their territory into
the Philippines.

Sultanate and the Pat a
Pangampong ko Ranao,
despite of the fact that the
Moros were never been
conquered by the Spain.

“The ANNEXATION of the Bangsamoro
ancestral domain to the Philippines

plebiscitary consent, a violation of
their rights as guaranteed by various
United Nations instruments
