The Mexican Revolution (1910-1921) occurred. Initially, the United States did not get involved because it followed an isolationist policy. However, the American ambassador in Mexico, Henry Lane Wilson, conspired in 1913 to assassinate the incumbent president, Francisco I. Madero. The resulting chaos resulted in the Mexican Revolution extending for another 8 years.
Over the next few years, due to surging violence south of the border, the United States became increasingly involved in the conflict until President Woodrow Wilson openly sent military forces to Mexico, resulting in the Occupation of Veracruz (1914) and the Punitive Expedition (1916-1917) to catch or kill Francisco "Pancho" Villa. The icing on the cake was the Zimmerman Telegram (1917), which promised German financial and military support to Mexico in order to recover Texas, New Mexico and Arizona from the United States; The "note" prompted the US To enter World War I (1914-1918) on the Allied side. All these events put Mexico and the United States on the brink of war for several times, and created an enmity between the two countries that lasted well into the 1940's.
