2) The Mexican Revolution was an armed conflict that began in Mexico on November 20, 1910. The antecedents of the conflict go back to the situation in Mexico under the dictatorship known as the Porfiriato. Porfirio Díaz exercised power in the country in a dictatorial manner from 1876 to 1911.

3) The first weight leader of the Haitians was François Mackandal, born around 1728 in West Africa, he was captured, imported and sold to the planter Lenormand de Mezy at age twelve.

The towns, where 51% of the rural population was housed, had only small portions of land and most of it depended on neighboring haciendas. In addition, the laws and the national situation favored landowners, as they were the only ones with access to credit and irrigation projects for example.
