Juan Álvarez President
Juan Nepomuceno Álvarez Hurtado de Luna (27 January 1790 – 21 August 1867) was a general and interim president of Mexico for a few months in 1855. He fought in all the major wars of his day, from the War of Independence through the Pastry War, the Mexican-American War, and the War of the Reform to the war against the French Intervention. A liberal reformer, a republican and a federalist, he was the leader of a revolution in support of Benito Juárez's Plan de Ayutla in 1854, which led to the deposition of Santa Anna'>Antonio López de Santa Anna from power and the beginning of the political era in Mexico's history known as La Reforma.
