Mexico's history is rich and complex, marked by various eras. Before the arrival of Europeans, many advanced indigenous civilizations such as the Olmec, Maya, and Aztec thrived. The Spanish conquest in the 16th century led to three centuries of colonial rule under the Viceroyalty of New Spain. Independence was achieved in 1821 after a long struggle. The 19th century was marked by political instability, conflicts with the US, and reforms. The 20th century saw the Mexican Revolution, a period of social and political upheaval, followed by the establishment of a one-party system that lasted for much of the century. Today, Mexico is a major player in Latin America with a diverse economy and culture.
