1. Based on the lecture video, discuss the three primary causes behind the rise of
nationalism in the Philippines. (30 points)

Despite of having delayed progress in the Philippine Nationalism caused by the

Minority Rule of the Spanish colonizers, it was the Lack of Communication and
Transportation Facilities and Alienating Policies of the Spanish Government that
brought our ancestors in chaos. Having these conflicts, based on the lecture video the
three primary causes behind the rise of nationalism in the Philippines are 1) Economic
Growth 2) Political Instability and 3) The Rise of the Filipino Clergy.

First, Economic Growth. The decrease of Vessel exchange among Manila and
Acapulco was brought about by the appearance of the boat Buen Consejo in 1765. The
Buen Consejo took the more limited route by means of Cape of Good Expectation, a
rough headland on the Atlantic coast constrained by Portugal. The excursion through
the Cape of Good Expectation requires three months from Spain to the Philippines,
while the excursion of the ship exchange requires five months. The occasion
demonstrated that Portugal was at that point over the hill in controlling the course by
means of the Cape of Good Expectation, which was at that point under Dutch control as
right on time as 1652. More limited excursions to and from Spain brought quicker
exchange and faster spread of thoughts from Europe. Likewise, the developing feeling
of monetary uncertainty in the later long stretches of the eighteenth century drove the
Creoles to direct their concentration toward horticultural creation. The Creoles slowly
transformed from a very government-subordinate class into capital-driven business
visionaries. Their turning of consideration towards guilded soil caused the ascent of the
huge private haciendas. Different government and church positions were moved to the
jobs of the Peninsulares who were described generally in the nineteenth century
Philippine history as bad administrators.

During the 1780s, two organizations were set up to improve the financial limit of
the Philippines. These were the Financial Social orders of Companions of the Nation
and the Regal Organization of the Philippines. The previous, presented by Lead
representative General Jose Basco in 1780, was made out of driving men in business,
industry and calling, the general public was entrusted to investigate and take advantage
of the regular assets of the archipelago. It offered nearby and unfamiliar grants, other
than preparing awards in horticulture and set up an institute of plan. It was additionally
credited to the carabao boycott of 1782, the arrangement of the silversmiths and gold
mixers organization and the development of the first papermill in quite a while in 1825.
The last mentioned, made via Carlos III on Walk 10, 1785, was conceded selective
restraining infrastructure of bringing to Manila; Chinese and Indian merchandise and
delivery them straightforwardly to Spain through the Cape of Good Expectation. It was
solidly protested by the Dutch and English who considered it to be an immediate assault
on their exchange of Asian merchandise. It was additionally eagerly gone against by the
brokers of the Ship exchange who considered it to be contest.

Second, Political Instability. In the early years, corruption is already a thing. In

order to prevent these things to happen, the tri-people were the ones that uphold
political reforms, for example: Freedom of Speech, Freedom of the Press to hold the
unstable governance of the officials accountable in their malicious doings. malevolent
doings. They likewise requested economic reforms which will reduce the degree where
the public authority controls the economy, being that said it turned into an extraordinary
contributor in the ascent of Philippine Nationalism

Lastly, The Rise of the Filipino Clergy. On February 27, 1767 a royal decree was
released, Lord Carlos III arranged the Jesuits to be removed from Spain, and from
every one of her settlements. The declaration arrived at the Philippines in mid 1768,
wherein Lead representative General Raon attempted to help the Jesuits out by
deferring the execution of the imperial request in return of pay-offs. This gave the Jesuit
clerics to conceal their assets as a whole and obliterate archives that could be held
against them, which should be seized. The principal clump of Jesuits, numbered 64, left
Manila exclusively by May 17, 1768. This occasion made Raon face arraignment from
the following Lead representative General, as requested by the Lord of Spain. Raon
passed on before the judgment for him was laid.

The removal of Jesuit clerics from the nation came about to a deficiency of
ministers in the areas. This incited the current Manila ecclesiastical overseer, Basilio
Sancho de St Nick Justa, to dispatch his cherished venture: secularization of Philippine
wards. Sancho contemplated out that ministers were simply shipped off work with
missions to regions that are not yet much Christianized. Local clerics should be
appointed to work with the areas since the Philippines was at that point a Christian
country. Sancho enlisted each Indio he had the opportunity to become ministers. There
was even a joke at the time that there were nobody to man the vessels any longer,
since Sancho had made them all ministers. The secularization mostly fizzled on the
grounds that numerous individuals from the recently framed local ministry ruined the
areas with their obliviousness, sloth, and such. One accomplishment of Sancho's
secularization project was the foundation of a school for local young men who try to
become ministers.

2. Within not less than four paragraphs with five sentences each, discuss the evolution
of Philippine nationalism. (30 points)

The Evolution of Philippine Nationalism started with Hispanism (1809-1820), at

Vitoria, Spain, when an enormous unified English, Portuguese, and Spanish power
under English General Arthur Wellesley defeats the French, viably finishing the
Peninsular Conflict.

On February 16, 1808, under the guise of sending fortifications to the French
armed force possessing Portugal, French Ruler Napoleon Bonaparte attacked Spain.
Subsequently started the Peninsular Conflict, a significant period of the Napoleonic
Conflicts that was battled among France and quite a bit of Europe somewhere in the
range of 1792 and 1815. During the initial not many weeks after their 1808 intrusion of
Spain, French powers caught Pamplona and Barcelona and on Walk 19 constrained
Ruler Charles IV of Spain to renounce. After four days, the French entered Madrid
under Joachim Murat. Toward the beginning of May, Madrid revolted, and on June 15
Napoleon's sibling, Joseph, was announced the new lord of Spain, prompting an overall
enemy of French revolt across the Iberian Landmass. But, when the Cadiz Constitution
was passed in 1812 they have given citizenship to all the subjects of the crown or
hispanism, alongside its advantages, to earn support for the Spanish Lord from the
states including our country. at the point when Napoleon attacked Spain and ousted
him. At the point when the fall of Napoleon reestablished the Spanish privileged
position, absolutism returned and revoked the Cadiz Constitution. The Spanish

residents, who lived in the settlements, gotten back to their old status as subjects of the
Crown and deprived of recently given common and political privileges. The majority of
the Spanish states announced their freedom from Spain. The endeavor in the
Philippines fizzled and set up for the second period of Philippine Nationalism.

Creolism gradually presented their own changes. The Parishes started to have
local ministers at the hour of Diocese supervisor Sancho. The Philippines was given
portrayal in the Spanish Cortes multiple times (last time was from 1836–1837). In any
case, on June 1, 1823, a Creole revolt broke out in Manila drove by the Mexican-blood
Creole commander Andres Novales. The revolt, brought about by a request from Spain
that announced military officials authorized in the Landmass of Spain that was ought to
outclass every one of those named in the Provinces, saw Manila cheering with Novales'
cry of "Viva la Independencia" or in English “Long Live Freedom”. The revolt provoked
the public authority to extradite Varela along with different Creoles allegedly known as
Los Hijos del País “The Offspring of the Country”, in the wake of being related with the
Creole reformists. The Novales Revolt would before long be trailed by another Creole
plot of severance known as the Palmero Intrigue, which was brought about by the
substitution of Creole public authorities, particularly common lead representatives, with
Peninsulars.

Assimilationist Flipinism or the Propaganda Movement in Philippine history was a

development, started during the 1870s, that was focused on the Spanish who were then
the leaders of the Philippines. One of its significant chiefs was Jose Rizal who,
obviously, turned into the Filipino most firmly associated with the objective of Filipino
uniformity and autonomy. Rizal turned into a head of the reformist development called
Propaganda, a steady mission for political and social opportunities, campaigning the
peninsular government, utilizing their associations with the liberal Spanish legislators.
With the goals of making changes in the Philippines. Understudies, who made the
development, needed the Philippines to be recognized as a region of Spain and to be
addressed in the Spanish Cortes. But when the provincial government didn't consent to
any of its requests. Spain itself was going through a great deal of inner issues all that
time, which could clarify why the motherland neglected to notice the Filipino's petitions
that led us to the last phase of the Evolution of Philippine Nationalism.

Indio Filipinism, when Rizal left the Propaganda in Europe Informed the
specialists to drop his month to month remittance of P50 and to commit the cash to
some better reason, for example, the education. There are multiple reasons why Jose

Rizal resign from the Publicity Movement: 1) Intrigues of his desirous compatriots
2)Desired to distribute his second novel 3) To practice his clinical profession he
expected to him to be. By July 1892, Rizal got back to the Philippines and set up a
dynamic association he called the La Liga Filipina (The Philippine League).
Nonetheless, the association imploded after Rizal's capture and extradition to Dapitan
on July 7. At that very day, a Philippine progressive society was established by
Ilustrados drove by Andrés Bonifacio, Deodato Arellano, Ladislao Diwa, Teodoro Plata
and Valentín Díaz. The fundamental point of the association, named Katipunan, was to
win Philippine freedom through an unrest and set up a republic thereafter. The ascent of
the Katipunan flagged the finish of serene promulgation for changes. Kataastaasan,
Kagalanggalangang Katipunan ng mga Anak ng Bayan (“Supreme and Venerable
Association of the Children of the Nation”, Spanish: Suprema y Venerable Asociación
de los Hijos del Pueblo), also known as Katipunan or KKK founded by the anti-Spanish
colonialism Filipinos which aims to lead a revolution against the Spanish colonizers, but
then carried on until 1912 at the point when the last descents of the Revolution gave up
to or curbed by American authorities.
