I believe the Mexican revolution of the 1910s was a war of the people‚ against the harsh rule of dictatorships. The role of Mexico’s leader quickly changed hands from Porfirio Diaz (1876-1911)‚ to Francisco I. Madero (1911-1913)‚ to Victoriano Huerta (1913-1914)‚ and finally to Venustiano Carranza (1914-1920). It all started due to Diaz and his hunger for power and unwillingness to let go of it; he went as far as blaming the people by claiming the indigenous and mixed people were “practically subhuman
