Short answers, pulled from the story.
Ferdinand Marcos was a Filipino lawyer who served as the tenth president of the Philippines from 1965 to 1986. He ruled under martial law from 1972 to 1981 in a system he called constitutional authoritarianism, and he was deposed in 1986 by the People Power Revolution.
Ferdinand Marcos was born in Sarrat, Ilocos Norte, on the 11th of September 1917. He died at St. Francis Medical Center in Honolulu at 12:40 a.m. on the 28th of September 1989, of kidney, heart, and lung ailments, 17 days after his 72nd birthday.
Researchers near the end of his presidency found that most stories about Marcos's military service were inaccurate or untrue, with no contemporaneous records of the awards he claimed. The Liberal Party later confirmed that many of his medals were awarded in 1962 to aid his Senate campaign.
Ferdinand Marcos was removed by the People Power Revolution in February 1986 after a disputed snap election held on the 7th of February 1986. On the 25th of February 1986, as Aquino supporters seized the state broadcaster, Marcos fled the Philippines and went into exile in Hawaii.
The Marcos family allegedly stole as much as $10 billion from the Central Bank of the Philippines during his rule. When Marcos fled to Hawaii in 1986, he brought 22 crates of cash valued at $717 million and deposit slips worth $124 million, among other valuables.
Estimates of the Marcos regime generally include approximately 1,500 to 4,000 documented extrajudicial killings or disappearances, with tens of thousands more imprisoned or tortured for political reasons. An additional ten thousand Muslims were killed in the Moro conflict by the Army, Constabulary, and paramilitary groups.
