All these Indians were forced to change their religion to Christianity. When Indians were discovered incapable of understanding Christianity, they were the victims of coerced labor, overwork, abuse, and mistreatment. They had to see their friends head chopped off, parts of the body cut away, home destroyed, and their women raped. All of their antiquity were destroyed. There was the drastic change in Indian population when the European diseases in the tribe was introduced as result of conquest. They were highly susceptible to diseases like measles, small pox, and respiratory illness. Establishment

What followed was one of the greatest tragedies in human history as smallpox, influenza, and other communicable diseases ravaged the native populations, killing millions. Spanish conquistadors, who were primarily poor nobles from the impoverished west and south of Spain, were able to conquer the huge empires of the New World with the help of superior military technology,

Spanish Colony: The very first Spanish person that arrived to the Americas was a conquistador by the name of Hernan Cortes who was there to take gold and make a name for the conquistadors.

The second thing was the disease he brought with him. Some say that disease killed up to 90% of the Indian population. In 1749 the spanish made their first colony named Laredo. But the Spanish first permanent settlement was in 1769 in California. At first the spanish grew very wealthy but due to some conflicts with the indians they weren't able to start a colony till later.

As people celebrate the Spanish conquistadors, you should not. The reasons are simple, the conquistadors killed the people who were in the Americas before they knew the Americas existed. They ruined their culture, brought diseases that wiped out entire cities, and killed them in ways that were humorous for some people, but was torture for other people.

Since the beginning of my senior year, I have become president of Spanish Club, and I want to grow into an outstanding president. Having been a part of that club for the past three years, I have seen it grow and expand over time. My plans include numerous fundraisers throughout the year, going on field trips, and uniting my peers in this club by meeting at least once a week and enjoying each others company.

I naively thought that everyone could get along and would be held responsible, yet that is not what happened during the first few weeks.
