In the story, a rebel named Demetrio Macias, has gathered many rebels to fight with him against the Federals that are taking over the cities. While fighting in a battle, Demetrio was wounded, so he stayed back along with some friends to heal. Once healed he went on a quest to a city where he would meet up with the federal named Natera and fight for freedom.
The Mexican revolution lasted from 1910 to 1920. The first phase of the revolution began because of a rebellion against the dictatorship of Porfirio Diaz, who had more than 30 years of power. Dictator Diaz put out a law that people soon got tired of and wanted to overthrow him. The second phase started with a disagreement between the classes Porfirista and Madero.
What was the main reason the revolution started???

Angel,
What was the law Diaz passed? How is the law discussed in the text? These questions might lead you to a more specific question. As is, the question is quite broad and leaves little room to discuss Azuela's text.
