In this course we will talk about both the bad and the good of Porfirio Díaz and his 30-year-dictatorship — the causes of the Revolution; the main leaders Francisco I. Madero, Pancho Villa, Emiliano Zapata, Venustiano Carranza and Alvaro Obregon; the different stages of the Revolution; and the results of the Revolution.
