Tabascans resisted control by Mexico City, overcame the grip of a Cuban adventurer who seized control of the region for two years, turned back the United States Navy, and defeated the French Intervention of the early 1860's, thus remaining free territory while the rest of the nation struggled for four painful years under the imposed monarchy of Maximilian.HISTORY / Latin America / MexicobisacshTabasco (Mexico : State)History19th centuryMexicoHistory19th centuryElectronic books.HISTORY / Latin America / Mexico.972/.04Rugeley Terry1956-985848MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910464489403321The river people in flood time2446996UNINA
