The Mexican Revolution

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Mexican Revolution, which began in 1910 and lasted until the early 1920s, evolved into a complex and prolonged civil war involving various factions fighting for different goals, rather than a short, unified, or largely bloodless conflict. It did not turn Mexico into a Communist state, nor was it characterized by a highly unified group of leaders. Emiliano Zapata was actually one of the key figures in the revolution, advocating for agrarian reform and the rights of peasants, rather than opposing the revolution.
