  2. Before the Revolution http://www.findamuralist.com/mural_images/thumbnails/113_mural%20total.jpg • Once Mexico won its independence from Spain in 1821 Native Americans and mestizos lost much of their lands to hacienda owners since they did not have protection of their government. (Bulliet 807) • Many Mexicans and Americans tried to bribe Native Americans for their land since it was much richer. (Bulliet 807) • Once when Americans bought 2.5 million acres of land from the Mexican government the Yaqui people rebelled since the land was theirs the Mexican government responded by brutally repressing them. (Bulliet 807) • The social classes were very noticeable since mestizos and native Americans were usually very poor and Mexicans from Spanish decent or Europeans were usually extremely wealthy. (Bulliet 808) • General Porfirio Diaz governed Mexico for 34 years whose motto was “Liberty, Order, Progress” (Bulliet 808) • Francisco I. Madero was one of the first men to dare to go against the government of Porfirio Diaz . (http://www.mexconnect.com/en/articles/2824-the-mexican-revolution-1910) • Madero asked for an election, promising the returning of land and better treatment of everyone, but he ended up losing the election and being exiled. • The ruling of General Porfirio Diaz was not a democracy but a dictatorship. http://www.mexconnect.com/en/articles/2824-the-mexican-revolution-1910 • Many factors led to the Mexican Revolution such as poor working conditions, inflation, poor housing, low wages, and a great dissatisfaction with their president. http://www.ic.arizona.edu/ic/mcbride/ws200/mex-davi.htm

General Victoriano Huerta in 1913 and in response the U.S president Woodrow Wilson sent the Marines to occupy Veracruz. (Bulliet 808) • Mexico's middle class and industrial workers were angered by everything that was going on that they sought out leaders such as Venestiano Carranzo and Alvaro Obregon, who called themselves Constitutionalist and organized private armies who succeded in over throwing Huerta. (Bulliet 808) • Emiliano Zapata and Francisco “Pancho” Villa both led revolts in which they took land but for very different reasons. (Bulliet 808) • Emiliano took land away from hacienda owners and returned them to the Indian village which it had belonged to while Villa used the conquered lands to build family ranchers. (Bulliet 809) • In 1911 once Emiliano Zapata led a revolt in which the Morelos claimed that all the local land and loca water which at the same time many different revolts were being held all over the country. http://www.mexconnect.com/en/articles/2824-the-mexican-revolution-1910 • Orozco and Villa took control of most northern cities while Zapata cut off all the roads leading to Mexico City and took control of Cuautla. • All of these events forced Porfirio Diaz to abandon his job as president and flee to Europe. http://www.ic.arizona.edu/ic/mcbride/ws200/mex-davi.htm

(Bulliet 809) • Lazaro Cardenas was chosen to be president of PNR and he took all generals from government positions, redistributed 44 million acres of land, closed church-run school with government schools. (Bulliet 809) • The best thing that Cardenas did was make all foreign oil companies theirs and when the U.S and Great Britain did not respond the owners of the oil companies understood that Mexico and the U.S decided to negotiate instead of going to war. (Bulliet 809) • The revolution accomplished reforms such as free education, higher wages, redistribution of land and more security for workers. (Bulliet 809) • The Mexican Revolution did not only affect Mexicans living in Mexico but also Mexican living in the U.S. http://www.ic.arizona.edu/ic/mcbride/ws200/mex-davi.htm • At the end of the Revolution a Constitution was created but it would not take place until twenty years later. http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761588457/mexican_revolution.html
