People Power Revolution
The People Power Revolution was a peaceful popular uprising in the Philippines on 22–25 February 1986 that ended the rule of Ferdinand Marcos. After a disputed presidential election, military rebels and huge crowds gathered on Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) in Manila, backed by the Catholic Church. Marcos fled to Hawaii and Corazon Aquino became president, restoring democratic government.
