Wikipedia: José de la Cruz Porfirio Díaz Mori (September 15, 1830 – July 2, 1915) was an accomplished general and the President of Mexico continuously from 1876 to 1911, with the exception of a four-year term served by his political ally Manuel González from 1880 to 1884. Commonly considered by historians to have been a dictator, he is a controversial figure in Mexican history. The period of his leadership was marked by significant internal stability (known as the "pax porfiriana"), modernization, and economic growth.
