4. Spanish Colonization
Spanish conquistadors came to the Americas in search of wealth,
adventure, and personal glory. Explorers Hernándo Cortés and
Francisco Pizarro conquered and looted the prosperous Aztec
and Inca civilizations. The Spanish also explored much of the
southeastern portion of what is now the United States and
established a successful port named St. Augustine in Florida.
The Spanish sent missionaries to convert Native Americans to
Catholicism. Missionaries established small settlements called
missions where they taught Native Americans. However, some
missionaries forced Native Americans into labor and overworked
them. Millions of Native Americans lied under Spanish rule. As
large numbers of Native Americans began to die, the Spanish
began to buy slaves from African chiefs along the West African
coast and ship them to the Americas. The arrival of the Spanish
also led to the exchange of plants, animals, and disease
between the Eastern and Western hemispheres. This movement
of living things is known as the Columbian Exchange.
5. French Colonization
Even though the pope agreed that Spain and Portugal should
divide the world between them. France refused to accept such an
arrangement. Many French explorers were not interested in the
new lands. Instead, they wanted to find a northwest passage round
or though North America that would lead them to Asia.
Giovanni da Verrazano led one of these expedition. As he explored
the ragged eastern coastline of North America. Verrazano believed
that the Pacific Ocean lay no far west of the North Carolina coast.
During his expedition Verrazano and his crew also interacted with
various Native American groups.
Other French explores such as Jean Ribaut and Rene de
Laudonniere, tried to take control of Florida from the Spanish.
Their settlements failed. However, the French still contributed to
the exchange of plants, animals and diseases between Europe and
the Americas known as the Columbian Exchange.
