Dates in office[edit]

Just a minor point, but I believe that the official position would be that Juarez remained in office as President of the Republic during the period that Maximilian and the French were in control of Mexico City. I think the dates in the piece should reflect this. I suggest a wording like "served as President from 1861 to 1872. His presidency was interrupted by the French invasion that installed Maximilian as 'Emperor of Mexico.' Juarez continued to claim that he was the legitimate president and led a resistance movement, which was eventually sucessful."

Indigenous president[edit]

The article lists Juárez as the first and only indigenous president of Mexico. Wasn't Victoriano Huerta also indigenous ? --JNguyenFlohic (talk) 16:53, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
