Fernando Manuel de Bustillo Bustamante y Rueda (1663 – 1719) was the 37th Governor-General of the Philippines from 1717 until his assassination.
Biography[edit | edit source]
During his tenure as Governor-General, several individuals with pending charges took church asylum in Manila. Bustamante asked the Archbishop of Manila, Francisco de la Cuesta, to surrender these individuals to the authorities or allow them to be taken, but he refused.[1] In response, Bustamante ordered that de la Cuesta and his monks be rounded up and imprisoned, but this incited many of the Archbishop's supporters, who stormed the Governor-General's mansion and murdered him in the streets.[2]
Following Bustamante's assassination, he was succeeded as Governor-General by de la Cuesta himself.[1] Meanwhile, the Spanish officials in the Philippines began to suspect that the assassination had been an elaborate plot by the Dutch East India Company, meant to keep Spain's influence in Southeast Asia in check.[2]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
Bustamante is never identified by name in Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple, only being referred to as the "preceding Governor-General." This is despite the fact that the events of the story take place in 1725, when Toribio José Cosio y Campo served as Governor-General, having succeeded Francisco de la Cuesta, who had been appointed acting Governor-General after Bustamante's assassination.
