Explanation:

To determine why a majority of people in the Philippines are Catholic, we analyze the colonial history. The Philippines was colonized by Spain for over 300 years. During Spanish colonization, Catholicism was actively spread through missionary work and became deeply ingrained in Philippine culture. Portugal colonized regions like Brazil, Mexico was a colony (not a colonizer of the Philippines), and France colonized areas like parts of Africa and Southeast Asia (not the Philippines). So the correct reason is related to Spanish colonization.

Answer:

C. The Philippines are mainly Catholic, because they were colonized by Spain
