Answer:

Tribes were compensated for whatever land was sold. The Dawes Act had serious effects: Land owned by tribes fell from 138 million acres in 1887 to 48 million acres in 1934. The economic cost associated with the loss of these lands and associated mineral and riparian rights is staggering.

Bad thing : Rather than assist Indians improve their lives and overcome poverty, the General Allotment Act made their condition worse. For one thing, many allotments were unsuitable for small-scale agriculture, and even those that were suitable required money for the purchase of equipment, cattle, or seeds that few Indians had.

Which religion did Spain hope to spread in its American colonies?
lozanna [386]
Spain hoped to spread Catholicism in its American colonies. Spain was a very Catholic country at the time and remained very religious for centuries later. One of the main goals of colonization other than taking over and extracting the riches from the countries was to Christianize the population and convert them. This actually proved largely successful as an overwhelming majority of countries who were colonized by the Spanish identify as Catholic or a Christian denomination.
