More about Vicente Guerrero: He joined the fighting forces of Morelos to battle against Spain early in the Mexican War for Independence. During his presidency, Guerrero famously abolished slavery in Mexico. The son of a Spanish loyalist, Guerrero was asked for his sword to be presented to the viceroy of New Spain as a sign of goodwill. In response, Guerrero refused saying “LA PATRIA ES PRIMERO” (translated, The Homeland Comes First). This phrase is still referred to today as the motto of the Mexican State of Guerrero and is written in gold letters at the National Palace.
