By 1830, several independent countries emerged from Spanish territories in Latin America due to a series of independence movements throughout the early 19th century. These countries included Mexico, which gained independence in 1821, and various Central American states such as Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica, which declared independence in 1821 as well. Additionally, countries in South America like Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia also achieved independence from Spanish rule during this period.
