In this video Heimler goes through everything you need to know about APUSH Unit 1 Topic 5 (1.5) which is all about the development of the Spanish colonial empire in the Americas. In general, Spain’s motivation for colonization was first to extract wealth from its colonies and second to convert indigenous groups to Christianity via the mission system. In establishing their empire, Spain sought to remake the Americas in their own image through the use of force, and they employed several tactics to achieve that goals including coerced labor systems (encomienda, hacienda, and African slavery) and imposing a foreign social hierarchy (caste system) on indigenous societies.
