This flag originated from the Ifugao Province in Northern Philippines between 1909 and 1915, during a time of great political turmoil: The Philippines had just declared independence from Spain in 1898 and was ready to establish itself as a new nation, even boasting a new national flag designed by its first President, Emilio Aguinaldo. The beginning of America’s occupation of the Philippines sparked insurrection all over the country, causing the US to ban images of the original Filipino flag. It is likely that this flag was created as a way for rebel groups in Ifugao and other areas in the northern Philippines to proudly display their defiance against the US Occupation of the Philippines while intentionally flipping the flag upside down as a declaration of war, symbolizing courage and valor.

At first glance, this Philippine flag appears to be displayed upside-down, as the blue stripe is normally on top. Along with this change, the words “KABINATAANG BALIWAG” are placed where the flag’s iconic sun is usually placed, and the words “MAGBANGON BAYAN” or “THE COUNTRY WILL RISE” are situated on the edges of the triangle. Along with this, the tip of the triangle contains a KA, which stands for Katipunan, a nationalist rebel group that fought for Philippine independence from Spanish rule. The Katipunan's full name, "Kataastaasang Kagalang-galang na Katipunan ng mga Anak ng Bayan," translates to the Supreme Worshipful Association of the Sons of the People.
