Mexican Revolution Day

Nov 20, Mexico marks its Revolution Day! The Mexican Revolution began on November 20, 1910 as an uprising against longtime dictator Porfirio Diaz, who resigned and left the country in 1911. However, the Mexican Revolution should not be confused with the Mexican civil war (known as la guerra civil or War of Reform) of Benito Juarez of the 1850's, or the Mexican War of Independence of 1810-1821.
