The EDSA Revolution took its place in history as the revolt that inspired many other civilian-led revolutions across the globe.
It begun on February 22nd and ended on the 25th after the Revolt succeeded in throwing Dictator President Ferdinand Marcos out of Presidential Power and sending him, his family and colleagues into exile in Hawaii.
The Revolt also swept Corazon Aquino, the wife of the assasinated opposition leader Senator Ninoy Aquino, to power as President of the newly formed democratic government of the Philippines.
The Revolution in EDSA triggered the hearts of other oppressed nations to stand up for their rights and freedom, like the Fall of Berlin Wall, The Tiananmen Square protests, and the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Spirit of People Power must live on! MABUHAY!
This is part of my commemoration of Ninoy Aquino's 25th Death Anniversary on August 21, 2008. He was assasinated at Manila Airport on Aug. 21, 1983 because of his opposition to the oppresive Marcos Regime.

The revolution is a great thing. But the caption says it is the first bloodless/ non-violent revolution. It is not. There are revolutions before it that were considered bloodless like Thailand in 1932 and mid-70's in Portugal. Remember 16 people died during those 4 days. But the fact that the civilians 'protected' the army is quite unique in history.
