Explanation

After independence in 1821, Antonio López de Santa Anna became a major political leader in the early and mid-1800s. Benito Juárez led Mexico later in the 1800s, followed by Porfirio Díaz, whose long rule lasted until the Mexican Revolution began in 1910. Lázaro Cárdenas came to power much later, in the 1930s, so choices including him are not correct.
