The Mexican Revolution
Reformers such as Zapata, Carranza, and Madero contrived laws or revisions to the constitution that would reform Mexico socially and economically. Reformers often fought to have these revisions enforced, but more often rallied the support of revolutionaries in order to carry out the revolts.

Zapata intensified his struggle against wealthy landowners, Huerta's allies, and federal troops. 274) The Mexican Revolution, which was still growing strong, rose higher in reaction to Huerta's terrorist regime.
