Answer 1

The Mexican Revolution (Spanish: Revolución Mexicana) was a major armed struggle that started in 1910 with an uprising led by Francisco I. Madero against longtime autocrat Porfirio Díaz. The first of the major revolutions of the 20th century[citation needed], the Mexican Revolution was characterized by several socialist, liberal, anarchist, populist, and agrarianist movements.
