Question

What were the effects of the Mexican Revolution on Mexico?

Answer 1

The Mexican Revolution destroyed the country's government and reestablished the economy and social systems.

Explanation:

The army of dictator Porfirio Fiaz was destroyed with the government. The work of President Lazaro Cardenas particularly altered social and economic systems in Mexico. There were four important changes to these systems.

1. The hacienda system was destroyed and the land was divided up to peasants and Indian communities.
2. The government recognized peasant organizations and labor unions and promoted their organization.
3. The foreign-owned oil industry was expropriated and the Mexican petroleum company created.
4. A new Mexican business class formed, based more in banking and manufacturing than in land, forming a mixed economy.
