How the kalayaan affected the memberships of the katipunan?

The declaration of Kalayaan (or freedom) by the Katipunan in 1896 significantly boosted its membership, as it inspired many Filipinos to join the movement for independence from Spanish rule. The promise of liberation and a national identity attracted a diverse range of individuals, including those from various social classes and backgrounds. This surge in membership strengthened the organization, enabling it to expand its reach and intensify its revolutionary activities throughout the Philippines. Ultimately, the Kalayaan symbolized a unifying goal that galvanized widespread support for the cause of Philippine independence.
