The book of the convent of mercy where Ms. Rofe lifted these morsels of French “cuno-cuanda” is suspect. It’s just a fantasy to tickle and have a laugh. The Convent of Mercy is a nursing home for the sick of the Sisters of Mercy in Wales.

From the start, there was no civil war happening in Europe when Magellan landed in Mactan, which drove the French to that part of the world where France had no interest at all.

Yes, Magellan did discover the Philippines in the European perspective.

The Philippines, I will agree with Mr. Villafania, was discovered centuries back by the Indonesians where they settled and formed tribal governments.

Fact of the matter is, Islam made its entry in Mindanao in the 11th century 400 years before Magellan came to be hacked to death. The problem is, our ancestors weren’t Europeans!
