Which president's era increased repression on peasants like Zapata?
Benito Juarez
Venustiano Carranza
Francisco Madero
Porfirio Díaz
Answer
The name Porfirio Díaz is closely tied to the repression of peasants during his era. Peasants, represented by figures such as Emiliano Zapata, faced harsh treatment and exploitation by the wealthy landowners and hacienda owners supported by Díaz's government. This tension between the peasants and the ruling class eventually culminated in the Mexican Revolution, which aimed to overthrow the oppressive regime and establish social justice for the marginalized peasant class.
