This would be like the big cities of today that are the centers of life in the United States. Forts for soldiers. This is like the army stations of today. Kept the Pueblo people safe. Presidios Like the churches of today. This was the spiritual center of life. Mission

Explorations for Spain
At first, the name of America was only meant to apply to South America, but later on, both continents of America became known by his name. Amerigo Vespucci was one of the first explorers to come up with the idea that these places he had visited were not part of Asia (as Columbus thought) but rather were part of a “New World." In 1507, a pamphlet was published called "The Four Voyages of Amerigo" and the author suggested that the new land that Amerigo had explored be named in his honor.
