Answer:

why did the santa fe trail start at independence missouri

Explanation:

The route was opened in 1821 by the merchant William Becknell and was used until the arrival of the railroad to Santa Fe, in 1880.

Following in part the traces made more than two centuries before by the expedition of the Spanish conquistador Francisco Vázquez de Coronado, the French explorer Pedro Vial, a subject in the service of Spain, established what would then be the route of the Santa Fe road initially traveling from Santa Fe del Yunque to San Luis de Illinois, that is, from west to east, linking the Spanish capitals at that time in New Mexico and Alta Luisiana.
