Carranza's presidency
Venustiano Carranza was a Mexican leader who served as president from 1917 to 1920 during a turbulent time of revolutionary change. He played a key role in overthrowing the dictator Victoriano Huerta and helped draft the 1917 Constitution, which aimed to promote land reforms, labor rights, and political stability. His presidency focused on consolidating power, restoring order, and implementing reforms, but was also marked by internal conflicts and resistance from rival factions. Despite challenges, Carranza's leadership was essential in shaping modern Mexico’s government's foundation and legal framework.
