12. To determine the answer to this question, we need to consider the impact of the American Revolution on the Mexican people and their subsequent revolt against Spain. The American Revolution showed that a colonial revolution could succeed in achieving independence from a European power. This knowledge and inspiration could have encouraged the Mexican people to believe that they too could achieve independence from Spain. Therefore, the correct answer is D. showing that a colonial revolution could succeed.

13. To find the answer to this question, we need to identify the factors that made political independence in Mexico possible. The destruction of Tenochtitlán by Hernán Cortés was an important event in the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire, but it did not directly contribute to political independence in Mexico. The conversion of native people to Catholicism, although a significant aspect of Spanish colonization, also did not directly lead to political independence. However, the weakening of the Spanish Empire was a crucial factor that allowed Mexico to pursue independence. As the Spanish Empire faced various challenges and conflicts, it became vulnerable, creating an opportunity for independence movements to emerge. Therefore, the correct answer is C. the weakening of the Spanish Empire.

14. To determine the answer to this question, we need to assess the distribution of wealth in Mexico. From the given options, it is unlikely that most of Mexico's wealth is spread out evenly among the people or donated to help the poor class. Historically, Mexico has had significant economic inequality, with a concentration of wealth within a small upper class. Hence, the correct answer is A. concentrated within a small upper class.

15. This question requires knowledge of Mexico's geography. The Sierra Madre Oriental is a mountain range located on the eastern side of Mexico, the Gulf Coast Plain refers to the low-lying coastal areas along the Gulf Coast, and the Yucatán Peninsula is a distinct region in the southeast of Mexico. The Mexican Plateau, also known as the central plateau, covers much of the central part of the nation. It is characterized by high elevation and is home to Mexico City. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Mexican Plateau.
