The Kawit revolt was a short skirmish in the beginning of the revolution in Cavite. Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo, The First President of the Philippines, led some 400 men to the town hall of Kawit, guarded by a few Guardia Civil there. A few days after the revolt, Aguinaldo marched to Imus to meet the enemy in one of the great battles of the revolution.
