ELI5: Why do we spell the country as 'Philippines' but the language as 'Filipino'?

So why are they spelt differently? 

'Filipino' also describes the people, culture, cuisine etc.

Philippines is an old English name of the country. It was a Spanish colony, the Spanish name for the country is Islas Filipinas. Then the people of the Philippines decided to choose a new language to become the national language. They chose a language called Tagalog. Tagalog called the Philippines the same way as Spahish.

Subsequently they decided to rename Tagalog to Filipino to highlight its role as a national language. And English just borrowed the name.
