	Colonial mentality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Colonial mentality is also at the root of a long established Filipino tradition of ethnic forgery used in the attempt to conform to the idealized mestizo pedigree dictated by the former colonial Filipino socio-racial hierarchy.
		In the Philippines colonial mentality is most evident in the biased favouritism for Filipino mestizos (primarily those of native Filipino and white ancestry, but also native Filipino and Chinese, etc.) in the entertainment industry and mass media which they have saturated disproportionately, despite constituting the smallest minority in the country.
		Colonial mentality refers to institutionalised or systemic feelings of inferiority amongst some societies or peoples who have been subjected to colonialism, relative to the mores or values of the foreign powers which had previously subjugated them.

	Creole languageCreole Information
		People of mixed Portuguese and Native ancestry that the Portuguese had contact with since the 15th century but who didn't speak a Portuguese creole are known as '' mulattomulatos '', '' mestizomestiços '', '' caboclo s'' and '' pardo s''.
		During the colonial era of the Philippines, the term "Filipino" served the same purpose as the term "Criollo" in Latin America, though there it implied the birth of the unmixed Spaniard was in the Philippines.
		This formed a discontented ''criollo'' underclass that, together with the support of the other decreasing-in-rank underclasses — mestizo, mulatto, amerindian, zambo and ultimately black Slaveryslaves — impelled the Mexican War of Independence (1810–1821) and the South American Wars of Independence (1810–1825) against Spain, culminating in the establishment of republics throughout the former Spanish Empire.

	Chabacano Research Paperwork
		With the exception of the Chabacano dialects, which arose around Spanish military garrisons and spread in multilingual commercial centers, Spanish never became the native language of any large sector of the native-born Filipino population, nor even became a widely used lingua franca outside of those (mestizo) groups most closely aligned with the colonial administration.
		Moreover, although Z is definitively a creole, as are the remaining Chabacano dialects, its inevitable and undiluted origin in the Manila Bay Chabacano dialects is not a foregone conclusion.
		Chabacano is currently spoken by a small number of elderly individuals in Cavite (especially the San Roque neighborhood), who may intersperse Chabacano expressions with the more frequently used Tagalog when speaking amongst themselves.
