You can ask Porfirio Diaz. 30 years wasn't enough to begin industrializing Mexico and basically taking the country out of the medieval era. Yes, 30 years. Yes, he was reelected more than once. And yes, technically he was maybe a little oppressive.

Well, I know my way around Mexican History after basically studying it for three years and I have to say: "[...] little oppressive." wouldn't be the words I would use. And wouldn't call Mexico before him being in the medieval era, just a failed state and punching bag of everyone.
