Answer:
After more than 300 years of Spanish colonial authority, the Filipinos fought for independence in the Philippine Revolution (1896–98), which revealed the administration's flaws but did not succeed in driving the Spanish off the islands. Spanish rule in the Philippines was ended by the Spanish-American War in 1898, but it also sparked the bloody Philippine-American War between Filipino revolutionaries and the U.S. Army.
Explanation:
The Philippines, a large island archipelago located off the coast of Southeast Asia, was colonized by the Spanish in the late 16th century. Opposition to Spanish rule began with Filipino priests who resented Spanish dominance of the islands' Roman Catholic churches.
Filipino intellectuals and the middle class began to advocate for independence in the late nineteenth century. The Katipunan, a secret revolutionary society, was established in Manila, the Philippine capital on the island of Luzon, in 1892. Membership grew dramatically, and in August 1896, the Spanish discovered the Katipunan's rebellion plans, forcing the rebels to act prematurely. Revolts erupted across Luzon, and in March 1897, 28-year-old Emilio Aguinaldo became the rebellion's leader.
The revolutionaries had been driven into the hills southeast of Manila by late 1897, and Aguinaldo negotiated an agreement with the Spanish. Aguinaldo and his generals would accept exile in Hong Kong in exchange for financial compensation and a promise of reform in the Philippines.
Aguinaldo made plans with American authorities to go back to the Philippines and support the US in its conflict with Spain. He gathered his revolutionaries on May 19 and started liberating towns south of Manila. He declared Philippine independence on June 12 and established a provincial administration, which he later rose to lead. Hence, the urge of independence was began with Aguinaldo efforts together with helps from US.
