T started when Francisco Madero called for an overthrow to Porfirio Diaz after a corrupt election. It lasted for more than a decade, killing nearly a million people--however, it also created the modern Mexican state, gave the country its modern constitution (in 1917) and eventually leading to the creation of its ruling party, the PRI. Basically, the Revolution transformed Mexico from a country dominated by rural aristocrats to one dominated by an urban elite.
Europe bases its economy on different economic activities. Though some of these activities are similar throughout the continent, Western Europe and Eastern Europe tend to have different focus areas. Western Europe bases much of its economic activities on service industries such as banking, trade, finance, and technology. Western Europe also manufactures products such as pharmaceuticals, automobiles, and aerospace crafts and technologies. Eastern Europe tends to focus on consumer goods and food processing. Agriculture and industry are more widespread in Eastern Europe than in Western Europe. Eastern Europe is working to shift its economy from a command economy to a mixed market, and it is beginning to add more and more service industries throughout the region.
