Question

Explain at least 1 other time the U.S. becomes concerned with or involved in Mexican

politics during and after the Mexican Revolution and explain why the U.S. either backs down
or fails to control Mexico.

Answer 1

The United States supported Pancho Villa during the early years of the Mexican Revolution, but withdrew its support after Carranza came to power. This strained relations between Mexico and the United States and had an impact on events during World War I.

Step-by-step explanation:

During and after the Mexican Revolution, the United States became concerned with and involved in Mexican politics on various occasions. One such instance was when the United States supported Pancho Villa during the early years of the Mexican Revolution. Villa, a Mexican revolutionary, opposed the dictatorship of General Huerta and received assistance from the US due to his opposition to Huerta. However, after Huerta was ousted and Carranza came to power, the US withdrew its support for Villa, fearing that continued support would lead to civil war in Mexico. This incident strained relations between Mexico and the United States and influenced events during World War I.
