Philippine Revolutionary Army

The Philippine Revolutionary Army was the military force formed by Filipino revolutionaries during the late 19th and early 20th centuries to fight for independence from Spanish colonial rule. It was organized under the Philippine Revolutionary Government and led by figures like Andres Bonifacio and Emilio Aguinaldo. The army utilized guerrilla tactics and saw significant action during the Philippine Revolution (1896–1898). After the Spanish-American War, it continued resisting American colonization, ultimately inspiring the country's national identity and independence movement. The army played a crucial role in the Filipino struggle for sovereignty, shaping the nation's history.
