The Philippines is made up of more than 7,000 islands located in the Pacific. But according to the US Census Bureau, Pacific Islanders are people who either descend or are from the three regions of Pasifika–– Polynesia, Micronesia and Melanesia. The Philippines is not part of any of them.

No. Pacific Islanders are Samoan type people. Filipinos are Asian descent.

I heard the Spanish conquered them centuries ago so they could be a mixture of Pacific Islander blood and Spanish blood because they have a distinct appearance from other Asian groups.
