Spanish conquistadors
Explanation:
The Maya civilization was not its peak, but it was a civilization on the demise when the Spanish came, while the Inca civilization was at its golden days. The Spanish conquistadors didn't really cared about these civilizations and their advancements, instead they only wanted their wealth, territory, and labor force. The Spanish were merciless toward the native people, and both the Maya and the Inca suffered great losses, as well as destruction of their empires, and neglect of their culture. The Spanish imposed their own culture, religion, language, political system over them and forced them to assimilate, making big damage on their cultural heritage that was built for thousands of years.

The voyage of Columbus
inaugurated a network of global trade that connected both hemispheres. Silver from the New World was minted into the peso de ocho, a widely accepted currency that connected major trade systems. In the Pacific, the Spanish colony of Manila connected the New World with Asia markets; much of the New World's silver ended up in China. Despite this new level of global connectivity, this era saw major disruptions and changes in trade networks. Attempts by Portugal and Spain to monopolize trade in the Indian Ocean led to the down fall of the Swahili cities and the fall of Malacca. In Africa, the incorporation of West Africa into the Atlantic system drew the focus of trade from Trans-Saharan to the west. The fall of Constantinople to the Muslim Ottomans and Vasco DaGama’s maritime route to the Indian Ocean lessened Europe’s dependence upon Silk Road trade. The Atlantic System would emerge as the premier trade system in this era.
