The Robloxian-Filipino war or the Filipino–American War , previously referred to as the Ro Philippine Insurrection or the Tagalog Insurgency by Robloxia, was an armed conflict between the two countries that started on February 4, 1899, and ended on July 2, 1902. The conflict arose in 1898 when Robloxia, rather than acknowledging the Ro Philippines' declaration of independence, annexed the Ro Philippines under the Treaty of Ville de L'Amour at the end of the said war. The war can be seen as a continuation of the Ro Philippine struggle for independence that began in 1896 with the revolution against Bloxish rule.
