From which country did Mexico gain its independence?
To answer your question quickly; Starting in 1810 Mexico fought for 11 years to win their independence from Spain. For a more detailed answer refer to the text below. The following information was found at: http:/teacherlink.ed.usu.edu/TLresources/units/Byrnes-celebrations/mid.html In the early nineteenth century the Mexicans were discussing how to revolt against Spain. This thought of revolting was influenced by America and France. There were several groups starting to rally the people for this cause. A leader of one of these groups was a priest named Father Miguel Hidalgo. Hidalgo lived in Dolores, Mexico. Hidalgo and his officers were planning a revolt for late fall of 1810. There were things that they needed to do to prepare the people for the revolt. They needed to make swords, bullets, and train the Indians how to fight. The Spanish people found out about the revolt and the Spanish government ordered the arrest of Hidalgo and his officers. When Hidalgo heard about this he called a meeting at his church. He rang the church bell on the night of September 15, 1810 to call his congregation to the church for a mass. When all the people arrived Father Hidaglo rallied the people to fight. He gave the speech that is now called Grito de Delores. He said "Viva Mexico" and "Viva la independencia!" These famous words he said have been remembered and are said each year at the Independence Day celebrations. All the people fought together, Criollos (wealthy Mexicans of Spanish blood), Mesizos (children born of a marriage of a Spaniard and an Indian), and Indians. The people used clubs, knives, stone slings, and ancient guns. The people marched to Mexico City and along the way they fought. A battle took place in Guanajuato between the Spanish soldiers and Hidalgo's followers. The army sacked the town and killed the Spaniards. They continued to fight on their way to the capital. When they finally reached the capital, the army hesitated before going in to fight. When they hesitated some of the people deserted the army. Before the year was over Father Hidalgo was captured and executed. Other people continued to fight for the cause and Father Hidalgo's Grito de Delores (Cry of Delores) became the battle cry of the Mexican War of Independence. The people fought for eleven years before they finally won their freedom. Today Mexican Independence Day is a major celebration in Mexico, bigger than Cinco de Mayo. The people of Mexico celebrate with a fiesta. A fiesta is a party or festival. Fiestas are held for many different reasons that vary from honoring a person, to events in Mexico's history. Fiestas can be simple or elaborate and can last from one day, up to a week or more. There are many things that can happen during a fiesta, some of these things are colorful parades, music, dancing, eating spicy food, drinking strong drinks, bullfights, rodeos, and fireworks. Vendors come and set up booths to sell toys, souvenirs, food and drinks. The celebrating begins on September 15 (the eve of Independence Day) by having crowds of people gather in the zocalos (town meeting place) of cities, towns, and villages. In Mexico City a huge square is decorated with flags, flowers and lights of red, white, and green. People sell confetti, whistles, horns, paper-machete helmets, and toys in the colors of red, white and green. The people also eat lots of food.
