About National Benito Juarez Day in Mexico
Mexico & Central America
Ends: Mar 18, 2024
DESCRIPTION:
Often referred to as "Mexico's Lincoln," Benito Juárez lived between 1806 and 1872 and was president of Mexico for five terms between 1858 and 1872. Juárez was responsible for the legislation that limited the church's power over national affairs. Benito Juárez Day is a federal holiday in Mexico celebrated on the third Monday of March.
Juárez was born March 21, 1806, in San Pablo Gueletao, a village in the state of Oaxaca, to farmers and a member of the Zapotec tribe. Juárez didn't learn to read, write or speak Spanish until he entered his teens under the tutelage of Franciscan monks. He graduated from the seminary in 1827, was elected to the city council in 1831, and earned a degree in law in 1834, beginning his political career.
In 1847 he was elected governor of Oaxaca until 1852. In 1853 dictator Santa Anna regained power in Mexico, and the first two long wars began. By 1854, Juárez had joined the resistance under General Alvarez and became his minister of justice. One of his first laws, known as "Juárez's law," served to limit the church's power over national politics. By 1856 he was governor of Oaxaca once again. By 1857, he was installed as the chief justice of the Supreme Court—for about a year until he was arrested during another attempted coup. However, as chief justice, he was next in line for the presidency should the president die in office.
Juárez escaped captivity in 1858. That same year the Reform War 1858-61 started, and Juárez was captured again near Guadalajara, briefly, before fleeing again, this time to Manzanillo, where he assisted in rebuilding the resistance. Juárez then became the president of Mexico. During 1857, the two men corresponded regularly to the death of US President Lincoln.
Juárez remained president of Mexico until his death.
