Question

What are two methods used by the Spanish to invade and conquer the Americans

Answer 1

Answer:

The Spanish colonization of the Americas began under the Crown of Castile and spearheaded by the Spanish conquistadors. The Americas were invaded and incorporated into the Spanish Empire, with the exception of Brazil, British America, and some small regions in South America and the Caribbean. The crown created civil and religious structures to administer this vast territory. The main motivations for colonial expansion were profit through resource extraction[1] and the spread of Catholicism through indigenous conversions.

Answer 2

Answer: Military technology and native immunity.

Explanation:

Europeans easily conquered the native tribes of America. Military campaigns led to Spanish methods of staying in the New World. The Europeans were superior in that sense. They possessed technology that was not taught to the natives, so they easily defeated the Indian tribes. It is important to note that the natives did not have developed immunity to many diseases, such as smallpox. There is some evidence suggesting that Europeans and Spaniards deliberately infected the natives on several occasions, and the consequences were catastrophic. Infectious diseases decimated the natives.
