Mexican history
Mexico was home to several advanced Amerindian civilizations like the Mayans and Aztecs. Spaniards arriving in the early 16th century and their victory over the Aztecs in 1521 marked the beginning of Mexico’s colonial era. A desire for independence from Spain led to a long war which ended with the country’s independence in 1821. After independence, the Mexican territory slowly lower. Rural areas in northern Mexico lost or sold for the invading U.S. In the 1860s the country suffered under French military occupation, which was defeated by the Mexican patriot Benito Juárez.
Porfirio Diaz’s long dictatorship led to the Mexican Revolution in 1910. Revolutionary forces defeated the Federal army, but because of internal strife the country remained in conflict for two decades. From the end of the revolution, the PRI controlled (Institutional Revolutionary Party) the country until the end of the 20th century.
