Mexican Revolution

Mexican Revolution was an outbreak that happened because of discontent among the lower social classes such as peasants with the tyranical rule of General Ignacio Sanchez. The revolution began in the Mexico province of Nuevo Paraiso and was led by Abraham Reyes who claimed he would improve the conditions of the workers and restore Mexico in to a democracy run by the people. His charisma allowed him to be an excellent recruiter to its cause.The Government was quick to send an army to quell any uprisings, and trusted all of the reinforcements to Nuevo Paraiso in the provincial governor Colonel Agustin Allende. The Mexican army won some battles, and also massacred rebels and civillians to serve as an example. But the army couldn't stop the quick growth of the revolution supporters ( such as John Marston who helped the revolution in numerous assaults). And lost much of its leaders like Espinoza and De Santa. The army lost most of its strongholds to rebels such as the fort of El Presidio and the town of Escalera who was home to Allende and stronghold to the Mexican Army was attacked and taken down by the rebels. The colonel Allende was not a popular leader and tried to flie but was executed by Reyes( or Marston). Then ut its leader Reyes proves to be no better than Sanchez was and became a tyrant.
