She was finally killed in her own game, that is, she was killed and devoured by the wild boars.[1] It was not known whether Pantaleon Perez was able to enter to school during his lifetime. History records him as Juan de la Cruz "Palaripar" then as "Palaris," but for convenience he was more popularly known as "Palaris.
" The New York Times/Mr. Schurz's Plea for Aguinaldo. Mr.
Carl Schurz grows more truculent as he perceives the waning of the people's interest in his anti-imperialist alarms. In his Cooper Union speech last night he dared and defied a good deal. He challenged the world to show that his way was not the only way to defend liberty, right, and justice and preserve the Republic. As for those who disagree with him, why, they are engaged in “the hugest confidence game ever practiced upon a free people.” EDSA Revolution of 2001.

Sakdalista. The Philippine Sakdalista (coming from the Tagalog word sakdal, meaning "to accuse") movement was founded in 1930 by right wing leader Benigno Ramos, a writer and discontented former government clerk.
The name of the movement was based on Émile Zola's 1898 letter criticising the French government, J'accuse. Sakdal began as a fortnightly populist tabloid, with articles tackling issues which were of interest to the Philippine masses: corruption and mismanagement under the American-sponsored Nacionalista administration, immediate independence for the Philippines, and the land reform problem. Its radical populist stance on such issues won it a large following in the Manila hinterland, such that by 1933, subscribers of the newspaper met in a convention in Manila to form the Sakdal Party.

Philippine–American War. The Philippine–American War (Filipino(Tagalog): Digmaang Pilipino-Amerikano) (1899–1902),[12] was an armed conflict between the United States and Filipino revolutionaries.
The conflict arose from the struggle of the First Philippine Republic to secure independence from the United States following the latter's acquisition of the Philippines from Spain after the Spanish–American War.[13][14] The war was a continuation of the Philippine struggle for independence that began in 1896 with the Philippine Revolution. Nomenclature[edit] Balangiga massacre. The Balangiga massacre[5] was an incident in 1901 in the town of the same name during the Philippine–American War.
It initially referred to the killing of about 48 members of the US 9th Infantry by the townspeople allegedly augmented by guerrillas in the town of Balangiga on Samar Island during an attack on September 28 of that year. In the 1960s Filipino nationalists applied it to the retaliatory measures taken on the island. This incident was described as the United States Army's worst defeat since the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876.[5][6][7] Filipinos regard the attack as one of their bravest acts in the war. There has been much heated discussion regarding the number of Filipino casualties, for which there are no reliable documentary records. Gen. Prelude[edit] Bell Trade Act.

It replaced the Insular Government, a United States territorial government, and was established by the Tydings–McDuffie Act. The Commonwealth was designed as a transitional administration in preparation for the country's full achievement of independence.[9] The Commonwealth government went into exile from 1942 to 1945, when the Philippines was under Japanese occupation. In 1946, the Commonwealth ended and the Philippines reclaimed full sovereignty as provided for in Article XVIII of the 1935 Constitution.[10] Names[edit]

Kingdom of Namayan. The ancient Kingdom of Namayan (also called the Kingdom of Sapa, Maysapan or Nasapan,[1] and sometimes Lamayan - both references to its capital) was one of three major kingdoms that dominated the banks of the Pasig River and the coast of Laguna de Bay in the Philippines prior to the Spanish conquest in the 16th century. Namayan is said to be the oldest of the three kingdoms, predating the kingdoms of Tondo and Maynila.
Formed by a confederation of barangays, it is said to have achieved its peak in 1175.[3] Historical record[edit] Much of what is known about precolonial Namayan is based on "Estado Geográfico, Topográfico, Estadístico, Histórico-Religioso de la Santa y Apostólica Província de San Gregorio Magno", published in 1865 by Franciscan scholar Fr. Felix de Huerta. Capital Sites[edit] Three present-day locations are identified as the political centres of Namayan. Sapa[edit] Sapa is the Modern Tagalog word for a small creek.

His forces were defeated, and he himself was killed. The Spanish victory at Bankusay and Legaspi's friendship with Lakandula, enabled the Spaniards to establish themselves throughout the city and its neighboring towns.
