Spain ended the colonial rule of New Spain primarily due to a combination of internal strife, economic challenges, and the rise of independence movements throughout Latin America. The desire for self-determination and the influence of Enlightenment ideas fueled revolutionary sentiment among the colonies. Additionally, Spain was weakened by its involvement in the Napoleonic Wars, making it difficult to maintain control over distant territories. Ultimately, Mexico's successful independence in 1821 marked the formal end of New Spain.
