Answer 1

The country you are referring to is the Philippines. The Philippines was granted independence by the United States on July 4, 1946. After independence, the country faced various challenges, including the Hukbalahap movement, a communist-led guerrilla group that opposed the government and sought land reforms and social justice. The Huk movement was particularly active during the 1940s and 1950s.
