    I.Brief overview:

    A.)What is Cavite Mutiny?

    *The Cavite Mutiny was an uprising of Filipino military personnel and civilians against the Spanish
    colonial government in the Philippines in 1872. It was a significant event that fueled the nationalist
    sentiments and eventually contributed to the Philippine Revolution against Spanish rule.

    *First Event: The 1872 Cavite Mutiny – The three priests were falsely implicated in the Cavite Mutiny,

    government. Although they were not directly involved in the mutiny, they were accused of inciting it and
    were subsequently arrested.

    Second Event: The Secularization Controversy – The GomBurZa were advocates for the secularization of
    Philippine parishes, which would have allowed Filipino secular priests to take on more significant roles in
    the church. Their advocacy threatened the Spanish friars’ influence and control, leading to their
    persecution by the friars and the colonial authorities.

    Last Event: Trial and Execution – Following their arrest, the three priests were subjected to a hasty trial,
    during which they were found guilty of rebellion and subsequently executed by garrote on February 17,
