Answer 1

Answer:

15th-18th centuries

Explanation:

Columbus's expedition arrived on October 12, 1492 to the West Indies. On December 5, 1492 Columbus arrived on the island of Hispaniola, currently divided into two countries, Haiti and the Dominican Republic, and established the first European colony there in the new world.

Later on several trips, the Spaniards were exploring and establishing small colonies, first in the Antilles archipelago, then in Tierra Firme, that is, the American continent.
