Making a Big Mistake
Description:
The government was broke in 1853 and having difficulty in paying its army, money needed to be found to maintain the government. Santa Anna made a critical mistake. He sold a portion of Mexican territory to the hated U.S. His Liberal Party opponents, who had been fighting him for years, assembled enough support to overthrow him in 1855 and send him back into banishment one more time.
