Tratado de Córdoba

The Tratado de Córdoba, signed on August 24, 1821, was a crucial agreement that recognized Mexican independence from Spanish rule. This treaty marked the end of the Mexican War of Independence, which had been ongoing since 1810. It established the terms for Mexico's sovereignty and the framework for a new government. The treaty emphasized the need for a constitutional monarchy and sought to maintain some ties with Spain, though it ultimately paved the way for Mexico's transition to a republic. Its signing symbolized the culmination of a long struggle for independence and national identity in Mexico.
