 * MEXICO **

Under the rule of Porfirio Diaz, Mexico was both prospering and also steadily declining. With the lower class being treated unfairly, those such as Emiliano Zapata and Francisco "Pancho" Villa decided to revolt against his ruling in order to have their rights heard. Francisco Madero ran for election against Diaz, but was sentenced to jail before he was able to take over Diaz's rule. These actions made even supporters of Diaz upset, and led to the Mexican Revolution of 1910,ending in a victory for the peasants of Mexico. No one was able to forsee the troubles leading with the Great Depression.
