The native population of Central America between the years 1540 and 1580 was decimated.

Explanation:

Before the Europeans arrived in Central America, there were numerous thriving native populations. When the Spanish arrived though, this all changed. The Spanish came with few goals, all of which were causing enormous damage to the native populations. Some of the goals of the Spanish were:

  • gaining as much gold and silver as possible
  • conquering as much territory as possible
  • spreading their culture and religion

In order to do these things, the Spanish entered in conflict with the native populations. Having superior weapons, and using the local conflicts, the Spanish managed to kill lot of people in this region. While this was devastating on its own, the diseases that spread from the Spanish on the natives had even worse effect, as they didn't had the immune system to cope with them and experienced mass dying out.

The native populations had dramatic lose in numbers, and with the invasion of the Spanish, and their aggression toward their culture and beliefs resulted in rapid demographic change between 1540 and 1580. Some of the native populations that were affected by this were:

  • Aztec
  • Zapotec
  • Toltec
  • Maya
