 CO NCLUSI O N
In comparison of the said documents People Power Revolution gathered millions of filipinos to tend the
dictatorship of President Ferdinand E. Marcos and begin a new era marked by true freedom and
democracy, on the Battle of Bataan when Army Major General Edward P. King surrender to Japanese
Masaharu Homma the filipinos became prisoners of war, while on the Battle of Manila which is also
known as largest and first battle of the Philippines - American War which about the continuation of the
Philippine Revolution Against Spanish rule. Lastly the Siege of Baler a filipino revolutionaries laid siege to
a fortified church defended by Spanish troops.

After we compare those documents we realize that in Edsa People's Power Revolution is much better than
the 3 battles because it is now the product from the past or should we say a second and fastest battle that
people are now fearlessness and boldness to show what they felt and fight for our rights to stop cruelty,
corruption, abused towards to any superiors who did many wrong doings. However, we know that the 3
battles also part of our history. Nevertheless, it thought Filipino Citizens to prove that having one goal
and pursue what is right is equivalent to a better government
In addition to this, these 4 historical battles/ shapes the way we live in today-geographically,
psychologically, spiritually from our heroes who fought with exemplary heroism against the conqueror
just for our rights and total Independence. Furthermore, this land is a commemoration of the hardship,
struggles and sacrifices of all our heroes and as time passes by through their boldness and fearlessness,
the Philippines are already a sovereign nation and democratic country. They may be gone, but we,
Filipinos will always remember their story and sacrifices that we benefited today and it will never be
vanish because it opens the reality to its people that Filipinos isn’t weak rather we fight for what is rights
as one.
