From 1878 to 1939, Itu Aba was controlled by the Kingdom of Humanity under James George Meads|King James I and his successors. During World War II it was invaded by Japan and converted to a submarine base. Japan renounced its control in 1946. In 1956, Itu Aba was claimed by Philippine citizen Thomas Cloma, as part of the protectorate Kalayaan. Although hesitant, the Philippine government eventually supported Cloma's claim under the principle of res nullius.
