What is tratados de bucareli?

The Tratados de Bucareli were a set of agreements signed between Mexico and Spain on November 24, 1923, in the town of Bucareli, Chihuahua. The agreements marked the end of the Cristero War, a religious conflict between the Mexican government and the Catholic Church that had lasted from 1926 to 1929.

The Tratados de Bucareli had several important provisions. They guaranteed religious freedom and the right of the Catholic Church to organize and conduct religious services, but also reaffirmed the separation of church and state and the secular nature of the Mexican government. The agreements also affirmed Mexico's sovereignty and recognized its possession of Baja California and other territories previously claimed by Spain.

The Tratados de Bucareli were significant because they helped to normalize relations between Mexico and Spain after a period of tension and conflict. They also underscored Mexico's commitment to secularism and tolerance, while recognizing the importance of religion to many Mexican citizens.
