Filipino resistance to American rule during the Philippine-American War effectively ended with the capture of Emilio Aguinaldo, the leader of the Filipino forces, in March 1901. Following his capture, Aguinaldo issued a proclamation urging his followers to cease hostilities and support the American government. This marked a significant turning point, leading to the gradual establishment of American control over the Philippines and the eventual transition to a colonial government. Although sporadic resistance continued for several years, the conflict was largely subdued by 1902.
