Manuel del Refugio González Flores (18 June 1833 – 10 April 1893) was a military general and Mexican liberal politician who served as the 36th president of Mexico (from 1880 to 1884). Before initiating his presidential career, González played important roles in the Mexican-American war as a lieutenant, and later in the Reform War as general, in the service of the Conservative Party. González was also governor of Michoacán (1877) and Guanajuato (1885) and served as Secretary of War and Navy from 1878 to 1879. Manuel González is the first president of Mexico from Tamaulipas that has been elected through popular vote; Emilio Portes Gil, also from Tamaulipas, became the interim president of Mexico after the assassination of Álvaro Obregón in 1928. ==Early life and military career== González was born in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico. He began his military career in 1847, fighting the invaders from the United States after they killed his father, a farmer. From 1853 to 1855 he fought with the Conservative forces supporting General Antonio López de Santa Anna. At the time of the Plan de Ayutla in 1854, he was with Conservative General Leonardo Márquez in Oaxaca, fighting against Liberal Porfirio Díaz. In 1856 he was wounded at the Battle of Ocotlán (1856), fighting with rebels against President Ignacio Comonfort. In March 1859 he took part in an attack on Veracruz by Conservative General Miguel Miramón, against the legal, Liberal government of President Benito Juárez. In 1860 he took advantage of an amnesty for the Conservatives decreed by Congress and offered his services to the Liberals fighting against Maximilian of Habsburg and the French invasion. González served under Porfirio Díaz. He participated in the defense of Puebla against the French in 1862. He was wounded and taken prisoner, but escaped. In 1863 Díaz made him chief of the Army of the Center. He fought under Díaz in the battles of Miahuatlán and La Carbonera, Oaxaca. González was taken prisoner by the French a second time in 1865, but he was paroled and rejoined the Mexican army. In 1867 he participated in the sieges of Puebla (where he lost his right arm) and of Mexico City. On 7 September 1867, after Juárez's forces had retaken the capital, the president named him military commander of the Federal District and governor of the National Palace. From 1871 to 1873 he was a federal congressional deputy from Oaxaca. He supported Díaz in revolt under the Plan de la Noria (Díaz's 1871 unsuccessful revolt against Juárez) and the Plan of Tuxtepec (his successful 1876 revolt against then-President Sebastián Lerdo de Tejada). Vicente Riva Palacio, liberal politician, intellectual, and military man, served in his government.〔http://www.lib.utexas.edu/taro/utlac/00031/lac-00031.html〕 On 13 March 1877 he obtained the rank of general of division. Díaz named him governor and military commander of Michoacán (1877–79) and secretary of war and the navy (28 April 1878 to 15 November 1879). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Manuel González Flores」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
