Mexico did not gain its independence in 1810. That was the year Father Hildalgo started its war of independence from Spain. On dieciséis de septiembre (September 16) he rang a church bell and started the war of independence, Mexican Independence Day. The date is analogous to July 4, 1776 in the United States when the Continental Congress declared its independence from England. It was a long drawn out war. By about 1821 the Spanish army had been driven out of Mexico. The president did not want it to be independent, but under the Council of the Indies. Spain made several attempts to recapture Mexico. Spain recognized the Mexican Government in 1830, but that did not prevent Spain from supporting certain generals in attempts to overthrow the government and return Mexico to Spanish rule with the winning General as the Governor of Mexico. The Spanish army waited in Cuba for such an opportunity. Juarez finally freed Mexico from all foreign occupation in 1867. Viva Cinco de Mayo. Long live May Fifth. Mexico gained their independence from Spain.
