minus-squarePronell@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·edit-22 months agoThe life of Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana, who was president of Mexico… multiple times. He kept stepping down and then taking it back when he was insulted. He’s the one who lost his leg to a cannonball (iirc) during the French Pastry War and then lost his fake leg to the US when avoiding capture. He may have also introduced chicle to New York City once he had been exiled from Mexico. Very much a larger-than-life character.
