Text of the page (random words):
independence if not the short imperial reign after 17 on 27 october 1839 his remains were placed in an urn in the chapel of san felipe de jesús in the mexico city metropolitan cathedral where they remain on the stand is an inscription in spanish that translates to agustín de iturbide author of the independence of mexico compatriot cry for him passerby admire him this monument guards the ashes of a hero his soul rests in the bosom of god 7 iturbide s role in history edit iturbide s reign as emperor lasted less than a year but as leader of the coalition that brought about mexican independence and then as its first ruler in the post independence era he remains an important figure not only in mexico but also in europe citation needed for a number of mexican autonomists a constitutionally sanctioned monarchy was a logical solution to the problem of creating a new state as it seemed to be a compromise between those who pushed for a representative form of government and those who wished to keep mexico s monarchist traditions in their view a republican federalist government was virtually unheard of for 300 years new spain had lived in a monarchy so a continuation of some form would have aided national stability citation needed historian eric van young states that iturbide s seizure of the crown seems less cynical and idiosyncratic when it comes along at the end of the independence struggle 20 van young s assessment is that he demonstrated moments of political brilliance clouded over in the long term by bad judgment and that in the end he was an opportunist 20 iturbide is often described as a reactionary rather than a revolutionary citation needed a view supported by his initial refusal to join miguel hidalgo s independence movement until it aligned with his own interests his role in the independence movement is frequently shared with that of vicente guerrero in educational materials and his legacy remains controversial no official acts or public events are typically held to commemorate his ascension or death citation needed the rest of the 19th century in mexico saw frequent shifts between political extremes with various factions gaining power at different times the old mexican nobility remained influential and members of the iturbide family were involved in political intrigue against the mexican government in madrid new york paris and rome into the 1890s 33 liberal or republican ideas would continue to be embraced by people outside the mexico city elite these came out of bourbon reforms in europe that were based on the enlightenment attacks on the catholic church by liberals in spain and elsewhere in europe were conducted also in mexico during the liberal reform period in the mid nineteenth century ideals of the constitution of cadiz would find expression in the 1824 constitution of mexico this constitution would influence political thought on both sides of the mexican political spectrum with even iturbide bending to it when he created the first congress of an independent mexico after iturbide there was wide general consensus even among the landed elite that some form of representative government was needed the question was how much power would be in legislative hands and how much in an executive 25 iturbide s empire was replaced with the first mexican republic general guadalupe victoria was elected the first president but in subsequent years general vicente guerrero became the first in a long line of presidents to gain the presidency through a military revolt after losing an election guerrero was betrayed and assassinated and santa anna would rise to avenge him beginning an era of mexican history that santa anna dominated this regime would oscillate and finally be overcome by the plan of ayutla the new government would struggle between anti clerical reformist views and conservative views during the reform war during the french intervention the country would face civil war amongst conservative catholic europe adherent monarchists led by the ironically liberal maximilian i of mexico and liberal masonic anti clerical reformist and united states adherent liberals led by the american backed benito juárez having prevailed juárez died after 15 years of forcefully remaining as president porfirio díaz in the late 19th century would install a one man rule which imposed upon méxico its first true period of relative peace in exchange for freedom and díaz remaining for the next 30 years in power he would be overthrown by the mexican revolution 14 in historical memory edit flag of the first mexican empire 1821 1823 early in the independence period of mexico s history the day used to mark independence was based on one s political stance conservatives favored 27 september for celebration when iturbide entered mexico city at the head of the conquering army but liberals preferred 16 september to celebrate hidalgo s call for rebellion against spain 33 in modern mexico the liberal tendency has dominated such that much writing about iturbide is often hostile seeing him as a fallen hero who betrayed the nation by grasping for personal power after independence since the 1949 publication of a historical novel la güera rodríguez 34 about iturbide s aristocratic friend doña maría ignacia rodríguez de velasco iturbide was cast in the novel as her paramour having an illicit affair with her although the portrayal of her was as a libertine the notion was based on uncorroborated rumors and innuendo with nothing ever proven and then exaggerated in fiction as her posthumous reputation as a heroine of mexican independence has risen beginning in the late twentieth century iturbide s has continued to be something much less than that of mexico s liberator 35 a two volume work on mexican independence contrasts hidalgo and iturbide with the subtitle the glory and the oblivion 36 iturbide s strategy of defining a plan and using the military to back it began a tradition in mexican politics that would dominate the country history he can be considered mexico s first caudillo or charismatic military leader using a combination of widespread popularity and threat of violence toward opposition to rule and would be followed by army generals antonio lópez de santa anna and porfirio díaz who came to dominate their respective eras 3 during the 1910 centenary celebrations of independence the remains of iturbide were not placed at the el ángel with other leaders of independence but stayed in the national cathedral following the mexican revolution 1910 20 victorious revolutionary general and newly elected president of mexico álvaro obregón mounted a massive centenary celebration for mexican independence even larger than the one that porfirio díaz had staged in 1910 to commemorate hidalgo s revolt considered the outbreak of the war of independence it was the first time since the mid 19th century that the date was commemorated 37 given that obregón himself was a military strong man his 1921 commemoration of mexican independence and iturbide was an opportunity for him to assert his own state building vision by appropriating a piece of mexico s history by overseeing the ceremonies obregón could shape and consolidate his own position in power which was then relatively weak 38 the mexican army benefited from the celebrations with new uniforms and equipment and there was even a re enactment of iturbide s triumphal entry into mexico city 39 mexico s flag is also attributed to iturbide its three colors of red white and green originally represented the three guarantees of the plan of iguala freedom religion and union in the place of the spanish emblem for mexico iturbide resurrected the old tenochtitlán symbol for mexico
