why did Mexico decide to become independent from Spain

OpenStudy (jokersmart):

The Mexicans fought the Spanish because the Mexicans wanted to be free of Spanish rule, since Spain was unfair to the Mexicans. Their leader , a Catholic priest named Miguel Hidalgo, was caught and killed. When this happened it made the Mexicans mad and this made them stronger because they killed their leader and soon they defeated the Spanish. You can read more about Miguel Hidalgo here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miguel_Hidalgo_y_Costilla
