Answer:

However, the direct cause of the Latin American revolts was Napoleon’s conquest of Spain in 1808, and placing his brother, Joseph, as the king of Spain. Many creoles might have remained loyal to a Spanish king, but they felt no loyalty at all to a Frenchman placed on the Spanish throne by force.
