Why did Mexicans decide to fight for independence from Spain?

It came to be more through political means than through a war. Imagine that, political changes can happen without violence!!!! While there had been some uprisings and strikes against Spanish rule, they mostly only impacted the indigenous people. The real independence apparently came because the sons of the colonial Spaniards, the Espa�oles, born in Central America did not have the same legal rights as the people born in Spain. As a result, they opted to declare their independence from Spain. Spain did not pay much attention to their growing movement and basically let the small countries go on their merry way. At that time, Mexico annexed most of the Central American countries and a Civil War did ensue for fifteen years. Guatemala ultimately gained its sovereignty, though it did not gain all of its traditional territorial space in areas like Chiapas.

Mexico gained its independence when?

To know the facts, Mexico gained independence from the Spanish rule in 1830. The country came under colonization in 1521 when the people of the Aztec Empire, the former name of Mexico, were defeated and conquered by Spaniards. The Spaniards ruled the country for almost 3 centuries. The Mexican War of Independence was triggered by the invasion of Spain by Napoleon I. Napolean's invasion mainly led to the opposition of wealthy landowners, political leaders and conservatives in Mexico to the social, economic and political policies implemented by Napoleon I. This resulted in an alliance between Mexican liberals and conservatives. The aim of the alliance was for the independence of Mexicans from the Spaniards and the leadership of Napoleon I.
