Filipi**s are flooding Twitter with celebrations after an international tribunal ruled in its favour against China's assertions that the larger country owns a number of disputed islands in the South China Sea.
China has been tussling (http://mashable.com/2015/11/03/us-navy-south-china-sea/#3zf4D2s5c5qL?utm_campaign=&utm_context=textlink&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=) with other countries in the region such as the Philippines, Brunei, Malaysia, Vietnam and Taiwan, over a group of islands and the waters around them. China's claims are in large part backed by a 1947 map showing a U-shaped string of dashes encircling a large area of the sea.
