Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The daughters of the criollos, who were locally born people of Spanish ancestry in the Spanish colonies, would typically seek to marry among the peninsulars (people born in Spain) to elevate their social status and maintain or enhance their family's position within the colonial society. Marrying a peninsular was seen as advantageous due to the peninsulars' direct ties to Spain and their often higher social and economic status.
