Pascual Orozco
Venustiano Carranza
Francisco I. Madero
Manuel González
Answer
Zapata contributed to the overthrow of President Francisco I. Madero, propelling Victoriano Huerta's interim presidency in Mexico. Although Madero pursued democratic reforms, his administration faced numerous challenges, including Zapata's revolutionary movement seeking land reform. Zapata opposed Madero's inability to address peasant concerns effectively, prompting his alliance with other revolutionary factions leading to Madero's defeat and Huerta's ascent to power, albeit briefly.
