Centralist Mexico
Centralist Mexico appears on the map from 1836 to 1847. At its greatest recorded extent, in 1836, it covered about 2.81 million km².
One of the realms of Mexico. Mexico's war of independence began with the priest Miguel Hidalgo's call to revolt in 1810 and ended in 1821, when the royalist officer Agustín de Iturbide joined the rebels; he briefly reigned as emperor, and Central America broke away in 1823. The young republic was unstable, and under the strongman Santa Anna it lost Texas in 1836 and, after war with the United States in 1846–48, about half its territory.
