Cavite Mutiny
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cavite Mutiny was a mutiny that took place at an arsenal in Cavite, Philippines on January 20, 1872. Around 200 Filipino soldiers and laborers rose up against Spanish oppression in the hopes of starting a national uprising. The mutiny was unsuccessful, and the Spanish executed many of the participants and began to crack down on a burgeoning nationalist movement.[1]
