The Spainsh had three goals. One goal had to do with economics. The Spanish were hoping to find resources, mainly gold and silver, that would be a boost to their treasury and to their economy. The Spanish did find a lot of gold and silver in the Americas. Establishing colonies would also allow Spain to increase its trade. This would also benefit the Spanish economy.

¿como incidió la pugna entre los ingleses y los franceses en los diferentes procesos de la independencia de las colonias de Nort
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

En el proceso de independencia de las colonias americanas, tuvo una clara injerencia el conflicto político entre Francia y Gran Bretaña, quienes se enfrentaron tanto a nivel europeo como en sus colonias en América, África y el resto del mundo.

Así, mientras toda Europa se involucraba en la Guerra de los Siete Años y las Guerras Napoleónicas, las potencias coloniales descuidaban sus colonias en América para proteger así sus intereses en sus territorios principales. De esta manera, se generaba un vacío de poder que era aprovechado por los movimientos patrióticos en todo el continente. Un claro ejemplo de ello fue España, que invadida por Francia durante las Guerras Napoleónicas por haberse aliado con Gran Bretaña, descuidó sus colonias en América generando la corriente independentista que tuvo lugar en el continente a inicios de los 1800s.

This system was created to attract immigrants and it was an attempt to solve scarcity of labor in Virginia, caused by the appearance of the tobacco economy. The Headrights were awarded to anyone who would agree to pay the shipping costs of the labor or slave. accordingly, colonists who were living in Virginia were given with two Headrights, and the migrated Colonists were awarded one Headright and the individuals received one Headright every time they paid for the journey of another individual. Plantation owners benefited from the Headright system when they met for the transportation of imported slaves. The increasing money amount required to bring bound slaves to the colonies and this contributed to the shift towards slavery in the colonies.
