The Aguascalientes Convention

The Aguascalientes Convention, held in 1914 during the Mexican Revolution, was a meeting of revolutionary leaders aiming to unify various factions fighting against the government of Venustiano Carranza. Participants debated how to structure the post-revolution government, leading to disagreements on power distribution and military strategies. The convention ultimately highlighted deep divisions within the revolutionaries, contributing to ongoing unrest. Though it marked a significant attempt at national unity, it also underscored the complex political landscape that shaped Mexico’s path toward stability.
