Independence from Spain, in the case of Central America, was primarily a reshuffling of power between Peninsulares (Spaniards born in Spain) and Criollos (Spaniards born in Latin America). Since most of the population were in lower classes, like Mestizos, Amerindians, Free Blacks, Biracial Persons, and Slaves, the only thing that really changed for them was the set of men at the top of the hierarchy, nothing more.
