Today is september 15 of 2010, you don't know what day is this?. Well let tel you somethings about. Today is a great celebration for mexico, they celebrate 200 years of freedom in the nation, Now here is the story. Like more than 200 years, one of the conquitadors of spain named hernan cortes, discovered mexico, hernan cortes took advantange of the aztec's hospitality and made montezuma his prisioner. Montezuma was the leader of the aztec's in mexico in tenochtitlan. Hernan cortes attacked and destroyed the aztec capital in 1521. the aztec empire disintegrated, and spain seized control of the region.
Spain get the control of new spain (mexico) and they sent spain rulers for the new spain crown. Many people were slaves or they work for rich people or people who were *criollos*, a mixed of native mexican and spain. Miguel hidalgo is the hero of the nation together with morelos, allende and josefa ortiz de dominguez were the initials of the independency war in 1810.
Tired to have the spain crown in mexico, miguel hidalgo hit the bell on some mission in mexico city and with the flag of la guadalupana, he yell at the people that they are in time to be free, to get a democratic nation and do not let the spain crown control their country. september 15 of 1810, miguel hidalgo proclame a independency war for mexico to get out the spain crown.
When miguel hidalgo died by hand of the spain crown, they think that the war would be stop but the true is that our people didn't gave up. The last scene of the war was when *el pipila* carry in his back a big rock to protect him for the spain weapons and get to the *alhondiga de granaditas * and burned it up all the spain crown. When his plan get victory all people yelled with proudness, for getting out the spain crown.
That day when mexico's destiny change forever is a memory day. Now that day is today september 15 of 2010, the bicentenary of this war, my war, our war, of a big change.
