<span>  Cesar Chavez did a lot of things to better the lives of Mexican farm workers at a time when no one knew about the poor working standards of migrant farm workers. He helped to establish UFW, whose goal was to have a better work environment for those who worked the fields of America. Chavez stood up to the owners on behalf of all of the Mexican people who were afraid to speak out for fear of losing their jobs and being deported if they were illegal immigrants. For these reasons and others, I consider Cesar Chavez one of my heroes.</span>

<span>Mexican-American Cesar Chavez (1927-1993) was a prominent union leader and labor organizer. Hardened by his early experience as a migrant worker, Chavez founded the National Farm Workers Association in 1962. His union joined with the Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee in its first strike against grape growers in California, and the two organizations later merged to become the United Farm Workers. Stressing nonviolent methods, Chavez drew attention for his causes via boycotts, marches and hunger strikes. Despite conflicts with the Teamsters union and legal barriers, he was able to secure raises and improve conditions for farm workers in California, Texas, Arizona and Florida.</span>

Explain the critical importance of the failed peninsula campaign
Kruka [31]
If you're referring to Napoleon's Spanish Iberian peninsula campaign between France and the coalition of Spain, Portugal and England from 1808-1814 there were three critical reasons for its failure and one main critical importance for its failure.
The three critical reasons for its failure:
1) Napoleon greatly underestimated the fierceness and will of the Spanish fighting spirit.
2) Chiefly because of reason 1) above, the vastness of the Spanish frontier and the resources required to occupy & hold territory bled his army dry.
3) Napoleon did not expect the coalition arrayed against him to hold as strongly as it did.
The main importance of its failure was that, due to Napoleon's overly ambitious tenancy to overstretch and string-out his resources, his other armies in other theaters of war were left under strengthened.
