We talk often about preventing or changing the First World War, but often overlook that this was happening during, and changed the course of, one of the most significant Western Hemisphere Conflicts of the 20th Century. So for this thread: How would the course of the Mexican Revolution, and the course of involved nations (not just Mexico, but the United States, etc) be affected in the following scenarios?

1) the war is prevented in 1914, and no other major wars between European powers take place for at least several decades
2) the United States remains neutral (if you need a more details than that, I'd prefer going with this; short version, the CP win)
3) Germany manages to win the war after the US joins (PoD in 1918)

In any of the cases, for example: Do generals in Mexico take different lessons from Europe, and does this affect any key battles? What effects does this have? Does the United States side with a different faction (e.g. continue supporting Pancho Villa)? Do they now more likely to intervene in Mexico militarily? Does this lead to more or fewer Latin American military interventions? And how does this change the history of not only Mexico, but the United States as well? And what other effects in the US and Latin America are worth discussing?
