it's D: make no change

What does Cabeza de Vaca do after returning to spain the first time?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

He was angry with the way Indians were treated by the Spanish and urged the Spanish authorities to show more humanity to them.

Explanation:

Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca was a Spanish explorer and the first European to step foot into (what is now known as) Texas and from the day he arrived, he and his men faced continuous attacks by the Indians that were already there. Eventually, his men were overwhelmed and he was one of the four survivors of the expedition.

In 1536, the survivors were found and rescued by a Spanish slaving party, and when he returned to Spain for the first time, he was outraged by the treatment of Indians and asked that they be treated better.
