Ferdinand Marcos was elected president of the Philippines in 1965 and declared martial law in 1972. This placed the entire country under military rule. During this time, the government fought against Muslim separatist groups like the MNLF and MILF. Marcos' authoritarian rule and declaration of martial law was controversial and faced opposition from figures like Ninoy Aquino and Diosdado Macapagal. Martial law was eventually lifted in 1981 after nearly a decade of rule under Marcos' presidency.
