King Ferdinand VII's Contribution to Mexican Independence
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page paper
discussing how Spain's King Ferdinand VII unwittingly contributed to Mexican
independence occurring when and in the manner it did. The paper provides a review of the
factions active in New Spain at the beginning of the independence movement, which largely
coincided with Ferdinand's imprisonment in France while Napoleon had control of Spain.
Ferdinand had a difficult life and a reactionary personal philosophy, but he gave objectivity
over to the consequences of the abuses he had suffered. Ferdinand could have been a leader
but chose not to be; his reward is that of being known as the Spanish king who lost most of
Spain's colonial holdings. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
