Formal diplomatic relations between Mexico and Spain were established in 1836, about 15 years after the end of the Mexican War of Independence from colonial rule of the Spanish Empire. After the 1521 conquest of the Aztec Empire, Mexico City had become the centre of power of a large colonial domain of the Spanish empire known as New Spain, whose remittances of royal silver developed into a key feature of the finances of the Spanish empire.
