Read the excerpt from "Government and Revolution."

The Mexican Revolution was long, and many lives were lost. One good thing that came of this time was the Mexican constitution, written in 1917. This constitution outlined the rules that the government must follow. It also gave all people of Mexico rights, regardless of whether they were workers or landowners. Many people consider the revolution to have ended in 1920, but the fighting continued for many years after that.

Select one:

• Constitutions exist for many governments but are rarely followed and poorly understood.

• Constitutions provide a guide to ruling a country but do not guarantee peace.

• Constitutions are official documents that call for an end to a war.

  
  

• Constitutions reflect the views of a small group of influential leaders.
