1. What is the significance of knowing where the First Catholic Mass was held?

o It is important to know where did the first mass was held in the Philippines, to
prove and to seek the truth by providing sources of evidences as it is part of the
history, but as of now the most significance is that because of that first mass we
had this Catholicism, we've given a chance to know Jesus Christ, to heard the
message of the Lord and the gospel. Because of this significant event we are
able to have this Christianity. Because of this event the First Holy Mass marked
the birth of Roman Catholicism in the Philippines. This is more significant for us
Filipino.

2.What are the issues concerning the first mass held in the Philippines?

site of this mass it is in Limasawa Leyte or in Masao Butuan City, because many
say that it happened in Limasawa Leyte and others say it happened in Butuan,
this is the conflict of the first mass that until to this day many historians continues
to be debated regarding these issues.

3.What was the exact reason why the planned mutiny failed?

o The reason why this planned mutiny failed is because when the district of
Sampaloc celebrated the feast if the Virgin of Loreto and came with it were some
fireworks displays, and the Caviteños allegedly mistook this as the signal to
commence with the attack. The 200 -men contingent led by Sergeant Lamadrid
attacked Spanish officers at sight and seized the arsenal. Izquierdo, upon
learning of the attack, ordered the reinforcement of the Spanish forces in Cavite
to quell the revolt. The revolution was easily crushed, when the Manileños who
were expected to aid the Caviteños did not arrive, so a lot of people died in that
event.

4.what were the differences between the Spanish and Filipino version of Cavite
Mutiny?

o The Cavite Mutiny of 1872 has two extant versions coming from two opposing
camps namely: Spanish version and Filipino version. The Spanish version of
Cavite Mutiny of 1872 is narrated by Jose Montero y Vidal. His account anchored
on the thesis that the fateful event of the 20th of January 1872 happens due to
the concerted effort of disgruntled native soldiers and laborers of Cavite arsenal
who willfully revolted to overthrow the Spanish rule, and thus, guilty of rebellion
and sedition. By such acts, the execution of prominent critics of the Spaniards
and friars by the Spanish officials are justified, and the sentence of life
imprisonment and deportation of some natives critical of their incongruous rule is
unquestionably legit if not morally blurred. The account of Jose Montero y Vidal
 was even made credibly possible by no less than Rafael de Izquierdo, the
governor-general of the time when the revolt of 1872 happened. The Filipino
version is told by Trinidad H. Pardo de Tavera. For him, the so-called Cavite
Mutiny is a mere incident of mutiny orchestrated by native soldiers and laborers
who reacted to the harsh policy of the new governor-general, Rafael de
Izquierdo, who whimsically terminated the old-time privileges such as exempting
them from paying annual tribute and from rendering forced labor or polo. As
accounted, it is made clear that the mutiny is blown-up by the Spanish officials
and friars into a revolt as a way for Filipinos to gain independence from the
Spanish Monarchy.
