Why did independence from Spain have little effect on the lives of most of the people living in Central America?

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.

What was the relationship between the Spanish empire and its colony Mexico?

Mexico was a colony of Spain, dominated by 'peninsulares' or people born in Spain.

Mexico was almost-self administered, but a strong resentment among criollos led to the independence movement during the early 19th century.


How did the relationship between the peninsulars and creoles contribute to the fight for independence in Spanish America?

They competed for special administration positions in the Americas, which caused friction between the groups and made them see themselves as having separate identities. Usually, peninsulares were given these opportunities and criollos were effectively banned from government. This led to resentment among the criollos who eventually led the movements for independence from Spain because of this political exclusion.
