Above is an image of the dictator Porfirio Diaz, who’s greed for power and having unfair elections led to him being overthrown, which was the start of the revolution.
Have you ever heard of the Mexican Revolution? I didn’t, until this 8th grade revolution unit started. The Mexican Revolution was a pretty interesting one to me and started with the unfair rule of the man shown above in the picture, the revolution taking place in Mexico. Then, there were basically multiple dudes just taking turns being president (overthrowing each other including Diaz) and goofing around (making stupid decisions) until finally, one of them took rule after the other guys killed each other off and himself killing 2 (with his army, of course). In this time period of 1910 to 1920, there were not 1, not 2, but 5 different presidents during this time (including Diaz) if you want a number. This tiny overview, though, doesn’t have many details, so check out the common craft video down below to find out!
