Huerta a protege of General Diaz and fugitive president
Victoriano Huerta once favored by Diaz rose to power in Mexico only to become a fugitive from his people. Born into wealth in Chihuahua around 1857 he built a military career and ancient plots with bandits such as Flores Zegaza. He directed campaigns against Yaqui Maya Zapata and led operations that toppled Madero. The United States refused recognition while Carranza and Villa gained strength, and mediation failed.
