NOVEMBER 20

The Revolution transformed itself from a revolt against the established order to a multi-sided civil war. After prolonged struggles, it produced the Mexican Constitution of 1917. The Revolution is generally considered to have lasted until 1920, although the country continued to have sporadic, but comparatively minor, outbreaks of rebellion well into the 1920s. The Cristero War was the most significant relapse of bloodshed. The Revolution triggered the creation of the NationalRevolutionary Party in 1929 (renamed the Institutional Revolutionary Party, or PRI, in 1946). Under a variety of leaders, the PRI held power until the general election of 2000.
