Question

What was one of the main reasons the Portuguese and Spanish failed at enslaving Native people of the New World?

Answer 1

Well technically both A and D could be correct. The natives rebelled because they did not want to be under their rule due to the encomienda system. D is the better answer though because along with bringing typhoid, the Europeans brought many other diseases that aided in the mass killing of up to 80 to 90% of the Native American population

Answer 2

D. Many of the natives quickly died from overwork and disease.
