    The document compares and contrasts Spanish and Filipino versions of the 1872 Cavite Mutiny in the Philippines. The Spanish version portrayed it as an attempt by Indios to overthrow the government, while the Filipino version argued it was magnified by Spanish authorities. Both accounts agree there was dissatisfaction with Spanish policies restricting privileges. They disagree on whether native clergy actively pushed for secularization or were targets of Spanish rage. Ultimately, the mutiny inspired calls for reform and independence.

    comparisons for themselves.

     Use this chart to compare and contrast the conflicting accounts of the 1872 Cavite Mutiny.

     Provide another sheet for your answer

     Write a one paragraph (5-7 sentences) for the conclusion

    CONCLUSION:
    The road to independence was rough and tough to toddle, many patriots named and
    unnamed shed their bloods to attain reforms and achieve independence. 12 June 1898 may
    be a glorious event for us, but we should not forget that before we came across to victory, our
    forefathers suffered enough. As we enjoy our freedom, may we be more historically aware of
    our past to have a better future ahead of us. And just like what Elias said in Noli me Tangere,
    may we “not forget those who fell during the night”.
