There is an obelisk in Manila, Philippines, in a traffic circle (square & compass)

, erected by a Carlist army officer named

Carlos María de la Torre y Navacerrada to commemorate the resistance to the British occupation of Manila of 1762.

Anda Monument.

>>>

Carlos, was also very close to the ilustrados, a group of Filipinos who understood the situation of the Philippines under Spanish rule.

>>>

The Ilustrados (Spanish: [ilusˈtɾaðos], "erudite", "learned"or "enlightened ones") constituted the Filipino intelligentsia (educated class) during the Spanish colonial period in the late 19th century.
