Hey, I"m not sure if this was the right place to ask, but why did Mexico wanted to be free from rule from Spain? Any details?
The main reason for Mexico's independence from Spain was the desire for political and economic freedom. Mexico had been under Spanish rule for over 300 years and the people were tired of being controlled by a distant monarchy.
Mexico officially gained its independence from Spain on September 27, 1821. This date is celebrated as Mexico's Independence Day.
There were several key figures in Mexico's fight for independence, including Miguel Hidalgo, José María Morelos, and Agustín de Iturbide. These leaders rallied the people and led rebellions against Spanish rule.
Mexico's independence from Spain led to major changes in the country, including the establishment of a democratic government, the end of Spanish control over trade and resources, and the development of a national identity.
Yes, Mexico's independence from Spain had lasting effects on the country and its people. It shaped Mexico's political and social structure, as well as its relationship with other countries. It also sparked a sense of nationalism and pride among the Mexican people.
