The designation mainly covers two periods: the first attempts occurred from 1821 to 1825 and involved the defense of Mexico's territorial waters, while the second period had two stages, including the Mexican expansion plan to take the Spanish-held island of <a href="/wiki/Cuba" title="Cuba">Cuba</a> between 1826 and 1828 and the 1829 <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Tampico_(1829)" title="Battle of Tampico (1829)">expedition</a> of Spanish General <a href="/wiki/Isidro_Barradas" class="mw-redirect" title="Isidro Barradas">Isidro Barradas</a>, which landed on Mexican soil with the object of reconquering Mexican territory.

There were no clear plans or guidelines established by the revolutionaries, and internal struggles by different factions for control of the government ensued. Mexico suffered a complete lack of funds to administer a country of over 4.5 million km<sup>2</sup> and faced the threats of emerging internal rebellions and of invasion by Spanish forces from their base in nearby <a href="/wiki/Cuba" title="Cuba">Cuba</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Background">Background</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Spanish_attempts_to_reconquer_Mexico&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Background"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Mexican independence was officially achieved on September 27, 1821, under the <a href="/wiki/Treaty_of_C%C3%B3rdoba" title="Treaty of Córdoba">Treaty of Córdoba</a>.
