La ciudad de Toluca durante la guerra y Consumación de la Independencia: The city of Toluca during the war and Consummation of the Independence

We analyze the participation of Toluca during the war and consummation of the Independence, posing the question: How the society of a provincial city as Toluca undergone the uprising of members of the City Council of Mexico City in 1808 and the Civil War beginning in 1810, also calamities like famine, epidemies and economic exactions demanded by both sides? I intend to answer it taking the perspective of social history. Finally, I stand out the establishment of the first constitutional Town Hall, extinguished in 1814 and reestablished in 1820, which has since been the repre-sentative body of Toluca inhabitants.
