In 1821, the peninsulares were individuals born in Spain who resided in the Spanish colonies, particularly in Latin America. They held high social, political, and economic positions, often occupying key roles in colonial administration and the church. Their status as the top tier of the Caste System created tensions with criollos, or those of Spanish descent born in the colonies, leading to significant unrest and contributing to independence movements throughout the region. The peninsulares often resisted reforms and changes that would diminish their privileges, which played a role in the eventual push for independence.

The Peninsulares refer to Spaniards in the 1500s-1800s who were born in Spain, but who moved to the colonies (be they in the New World or the Philippines). The Peninsulares were so called because the came from the Spanish Peninsula. The children of Peninsulares who were born in the colonies (but still entirely European blood) were called Criollos.

Creoles resented peninsulares because peninsulares were born in Spain and held higher social and political positions in the colonies, creating a sense of superiority and favoritism towards those of Spanish descent. This led to tensions and animosity between the two groups.
