When did the Creoles lead the fight for independence?

The Creoles led the fight for independence in Latin America during the early 19th century, particularly between 1810 and 1825. This movement was largely driven by the desire for greater autonomy from Spanish colonial rule and was influenced by Enlightenment ideas. The Creoles, who were of Spanish descent born in the Americas, played a crucial role in various revolutions across the continent, ultimately leading to the establishment of independent nations. Key figures in this struggle included Simón Bolívar and José de San Martín.
