The Moro Rebellion (1902–1913) was an armed conflict between the Moro people and the United States military during the Philippine–American War. The rebellion occurred after the conclusion of the conflict between the United States and First Philippine Republic, and saw the U.S. move to impose its authority over the Muslim states in Mindanao, Jolo and the neighboring Sulu Archipelago.
