Answer:

Option: 3: The Mexican war of independence against Spain

Explanation:

During the Mexican War of Independence, the Criollo create the resentment against Spanish rule. The Criollos were pure-blooded Spaniard born in the Americas. The Peninsulares were those born in Spain. They dominated the social and political positions in Mexico as they considered to be superior to those born in the colonies. The Criollos considered inferior, which resulted in discrimination in Mexico. Land distribution in Mexico among the Criollos was the result of the hostility towards the Spanish colonizers.
