Years: 1572 - 1572

López de Legazpi governs the Manila colony for a year before dying of heart failure in 1572.

He dies leaving only a few pesos behind, as he had spent most of his personal fortune during the conquest.

The regions of Luzon, Visayas and parts of northern Mindanao have already passed to Spanish rule by the time of his death.
