Andrés Bonifacio Spanish Filipino

Andres Bonifacio was the third supreme president of the secret revolutionary society Katipunan, which started an open revolt against the Spanish colonial government in 1896. When Bonifacio transformed the Katipunan into a revolutionary government, he became its head, making him the first president of a united Philippines. This new government formed by Bonifacio was known as the Tagalog Republic, though "Tagalog" referred to all non-Spanish peoples of the Philippines rather than just the Tagalog ethnic group. However, Bonifacio's revolutionary government never controlled much territory due to opposition from other revolutionary groups.

Bonifacio's Tagalog Republic[edit]

Depending on the definition chosen for these terms, a number of persons could alternatively be
considered the inaugural holder of the office. Andrés Bonifacio could be considered the first
president of a united Philippines since, while he was the third supreme president
(Spanish: Presidente Supremo; Filipino: Kataas-taasang Pangulo) of the Katipunan, a secret
revolutionary society that started an open revolt against the Spanish colonial government in August
1896, he transformed the society into a revolutionary government with himself as its head. While the
term Katipunan remained, Bonifacio's government was also known as the Tagalog
Republic (Spanish: República Tagala; Filipino: Republikang Tagalog). Although the
word Tagalog refers to the Tagalog people, a specific ethno-linguistic group, Bonifacio used it to
denote all non-Spanish peoples of the Philippines in place of Filipinos, which had colonial origins. [7][8][9]
