Abstract

On August 24, 1821, Agustín de Iturbide, general of the Mexican Army of the Three Guarantees, and Juan O’Donojú, captain general of New Spain and representative of the Spanish Crown, signed the Treaty of Córdoba, which granted independence to Mexico. (The accompanying document uses the anglicized spelling “Cordova” and the variant spelling “O’Donnoju.”) The Treaty of Córdoba brought to a close the long and complex Mexican War of Independence (1810–1821).
