This gradually led to big displeasure, especially because the criollos were treated badly, so the people started to gear up for revolution in order to gain independence and kick out the Spanish. The moment was right once Spain got attacked by France on European soil, so its military was focused in defending the homeland. The criollos and the other ethnic groups organized and attacked, being able to overcome the weakened Spanish forces and gain independence.
