Video AGE OF EXPLORATION CONQUEST IN AMERICA

COLONIZATION IN THE AMERICAS CONQUISTADOR: Spanish conqueror After Columbus & Magellan… Hernan Cortes (Spain) - conquistador who arrived in Mexico in 1519, looking for lands to claim & searching for “City of Gold”

HERNAN CORTES vs Came across Aztec Empire Greeted by Montezuma Video  Came across Aztec Empire Greeted by Montezuma Aztecs thought Spaniards were “iron-clad gods” Defeated Aztecs (1. Superior weapons, 2. Used enemies to help, 3. Disease) Tenochtitlan (Aztec capital) became Mexico City

AZTEC EMPIRE

FRANCISCO PIZARRO vs Bio. Video  Conquistador who arrived in Inca Empire (Peru) in 1523 Captured Atahualpa for ransom of gold/silver; silver became a HUGE commodity! Spanish eventually conquered, taking over lands from Ecuador to Chile Video 

REASONS FOR CONQUISTADORS’ SUCCESSES Military: horses, muskets, cannons, armor Division among natives: Aztecs/Incas had many tribal enemies Oppression/abuse of Native Americans: forced to work in encomienda system (slave farming) Disease: new to Native Americans; challenged beliefs

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE NATIVE AMERICANS? 90% of indigenous population died b/c of enslavement, overwork, or diseases: Smallpox Measles Influenza Many converted to Christianity by force Caught in battle between Spain & Portugal  Optional Video

Treaty of tordesillas 1494 - Agreement between Spain & Portugal negotiated by Pope Alexander VI LINE OF DEMARCATION divides “New World” Portugal gets everything EAST of the line (Brazil & East Indies) Spain gets everything WEST of the line (Central America, Caribbean, & most of South America)
