Francisco Macabulos y Soliman (September 17, 1871 – April 20, 1922), commonly known today as Francisco Makabulos, was a Filipino patriot and revolutionary general who led the Katipunan revolutionary forces during the Philippine Revolution against Spain in 1896.
Macabulos refused to honor the Pact of Biak-na-Bato, which called for a truce with the Spanish colonial government, and continued operations in Central Luzon.
However, on January 14, 1898, he disbanded his troops and accepted amnesty after receiving 14,000 pesos as part of Spanish reparations to Filipino revolutionaries.
Nonetheless, Macabulos resumed operations against the Spanish and on April 17, 1898, an assembly of citizens representing the town councils Macabulos established, calling themselves representatives of Central Luzon, met and drafted a provisional constitution.
[1] Macabulos dissolved his government after the First Philippine Republic was created by the Malolos Constitution, which he also signed.
