pancho took over


juarez once again served as the provisional capital of mexico during the mexican revolution. one of the opposition leaders was fransisco madero. his guys led by pancho villa took over the city on november 20, 1910. it was home to intense fighting for a while, but prohibition helped revive it around 1919-1933, w everyone going there to drink. i wonder how many national capitals are on there national border?
