This is not a historical fiction. It is based on the US occupation of Veracruz started in April of 1914 as a part of the response to the Tampico Affair. It occurs during the Mexican Revolution.
I'm unsure as to how Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata were affected by this 7 month occupation, but Zapata gets mentioned in the song.

The song is historical fiction (i.e. Maria, his father's voice, etc., etc.), the events he describes are not.
