Conclusion and Implication:

Katipunan and the Revolution and the Seeds of Discontent are two historical excerpts from the Philippines that primarily discuss the revolutions that occurred.
During Spanish colonization, the Tejeros Convention was the main event. The aforementioned articles are mostly similar, but there are a few differences. The
convention was held on March 25, 1897, according to the first article, "Katipunan and the Revolution," while the convention was held on March 22, 1897,
according to the second article, "Seeds of Discontent." This demonstrates a factual contradiction between the two excerpts, implying the article's credibility and
authenticity. The excerpts from the two books were discussing a previous incident that occurred in Katipunan. Based on my research and knowledge gained
from reading the two historical sources, I believe both are reliable and credible because they were written by two of history's greatest historians. However, if I
had to choose which one is more credible and trustworthy, I would go with "Seeds of Discontent." because there was more evidence mentioned, such as letters
between Bonifacio and Jacinto, which provided a clearer picture of how the events unfolded Also, the seed of discontent is more understandable.
