Answer:
3.To Filipino students, it is important because they are part of Philippine society, and you always want to know where you came from, what sources or influences shaped you. Just as with your family - if you have no idea what your parents were like before you were born (who their parents were, where they lived, what they did, how they met, what obstacles they overcame, etc.) you are deprived of some of what makes you “you.” You can still go on - as most orphans do - but with a poorer sense of your heritage than other people have.
To Filipino-American students: as above, but somewhat altered by the “American” component of your past, depending on how closely you are linked in time, space, or social connection, to the Philippines or other Filipinos.
To other students: no more important than the history of any other part of the world, and no one can master all of it. But to learn about a society that is NOT your own is a different kind of blessing - it forces you (or should force you) to reevaluate your own assumptions and perceptions, because what you grew up with as “normal” - This Is What History Is Like, This Is How The World Works - turns out to be a “special case,” since other people in other societies had other experiences. Your way is not the only way; it may not even be the best way.
To study ANY history should enhance your appreciation of humankind
4.The Balangiga bells (Spanish: Campanas de Balangiga; Tagalog: Mga kampana ng Balangiga) are three church bells that were taken by the United States Army from the Church of San Lorenzo de Martir[1] in Balangiga, Eastern Samar, Philippines, as war trophies after reprisals following the Balangiga massacre in 1901 during the Philippine–American War. One church bell was in the possession of the 9th Infantry Regiment at Camp Red Cloud, their base in South Korea,[2][3] while two others were on a former base of the 11th Infantry Regiment at Francis E. Warren Air Force Base in Cheyenne, Wyoming.[4]
