Mexican independence was achieved when Mestizo and Creole leaders joined forces in the early 1820s so this statement is <u>True</u>.
<h3>How did the Mexicans achieve independence?</h3>
The Mexicans tried to gain independence twice but because they were divided, the Spanish were able to crush both rebellions.
This changed in the early 1820s when Mestizo and Creole leaders joined forces. This led to the installation of a King/ Emperor in the form of Agustin de Iturbide but his reign lasted for just a year.
