Melchora Aquino was captured and exiled in _______ for helping the kapituneros
Nady [450]

Answer:

<u>Melchora Aquino was captured and exiled in Guam for helping the kapituneros</u>

Explanation:

Melchora is often called the ''mother of the Philippines revolution''  or ''Tandang Sora''

She is held in high-esteem all over the country and her struggle is still celebrated today.

While she was born into an ordinary family and lived a completely normal life, things changed when she opened a store in her own village. This place gradually became a refuge for rebels fighting against the occupation.

Apart from food and shelter, she was seen as a motherly figure by many in the revolution who would meet her for prayers and blessings.

The Spanish got to know about her actives and when she refused to give information, she was exiled to Guam, only to return when the Americans came in.
