what factor contributed most to mexicos declaration of independence in 1821?
cooperation between mexican and south american elites
cooperation between creoles and peninsulares
loss of faith in the spanish kings ability to rule effectively
calls for redistribution of wealth and property among amerindians and the poor

Explanation:

In the early 19th - century, the Peninsular Wars in Spain led to political instability in the Spanish - ruled territories. Mexicans, especially the creoles, lost faith in the Spanish king's ability to govern effectively. This loss of faith was a major impetus for the push towards independence. Cooperation between Mexican and South American elites was not the main factor. Cooperation between creoles and peninsulares was limited as they had different interests. Calls for redistribution of wealth and property among Amerindians and the poor were more related to social reform movements rather than the main cause of independence.

Answer:

C. Loss of faith in the Spanish king's ability to rule effectively
