After the Mexican Independence
in 1821, the country lived very
tumultuous and chaotic times,
President Benito Juarez "Laws of
Reforms" tried to give the country
some stability. After the war with
France in 1862, Porfirio Díaz
became the President of Mexico
and stay 33 years of dictatorship.
Those years of suppression
generated the Mexican Revolution
from 1910 to 1917.
A similar case we find in
Venezuela. Simon Bolivar, a great
man that fight for the
independence from the Spanish in
South America. He wanted to
create a union of states but faced
heavy internal opposition. Bolívar
declared himself dictator in 1828
Today, we see the difficulties the
region is living, with the awful
case of the economic crisis in
Venezuela, and some other
countries of the region like Bolivia
