Sumario:The war of Independence created  an atmosphere of tension among the inhabitants of the Valley of Mexico. During the first years, the region's peoples sought the way to survive between two fires. Their discourse of submission  and loyalty,  as well as their “fooling  around” with the insurgents,  were some strategies of resistance and transgression. Eventually, war turned into another way of life. Thereafter,  merchandise  trade, kidnapping, corruption, and revenge among parishioners, priests and militiamen created a new kind of rebel. This paper examines the different phases that resistance and rebellion went through among the inhabitants of the Intendencia of Mexico during the war.
