Development of Philippine Nationalism and Patriotism

The development of Philippine nationalism was a reaction to Spanish colonialism. Several factors contributed to the birth of this nationalism in the late 19th century, including the opening of the Suez Canal which increased trade and ideas from abroad, and the influx of liberal ideas from Europe. Two key events that further galvanized nationalism were the Cavite Mutiny of 1872 and the execution of nationalist priests Gomez, Burgos, and Zamora, which came to be seen as martyrdom for the nationalist cause. This period saw the rise of propaganda movements demanding greater rights and equality for Filipinos under Spanish rule.
