In the early 1800s, Bolivia, like so many other regions within Spain's New World Empire, sought independence for several reasons, including economic, political, and philosophical alike. Perhaps the strongest desire came from the nationalistic fervor that was sweeping the New and Old World in the wake of the American and French Revolutions.

Why did the US give Cuba their independence but not Puerto Rico?
Cuba won independence from Spain, with the assistance of the United States, but the two were similar in that their status changed as a result of the end of the Spanish-American war and the resultant treaty. Cuba was given independence from Spain in that treaty, but afterward the US claimed Puerto Rico, which had already been independent from Spain. Spain couldn't do anything about it, and the reasons for it were likely that the US wanted to have control over what happened there, and not allow the small country to be influenced against them by anyone else. More recently, at least as recorded by the votes of the populous, Puerto Rico seems to not want to be an independent nation, but prefers statehood. It's definitely a big issue, but the option seems to be on the table, and isn't what everyone wants.

Who did Mexico gain its independence from in 1810?
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.
