Spanish Pikeman (pike at the ready), Spanish Conquistadors, The Conquest of America

From the moment of Christopher Columbus' discovery of lands previously unknown to Europe in 1492, the New World captured the imagination of European adventurers.  Thousands of men came to the New World to seek fortune, glory, and land. For two centuries, these men explored the New World, conquering any native people they came across in the name of the King of Spain (and the hope of gold). They came to be known as the Conquistadors. 


Conquistadors claimed that they were attacking the New World natives in order to spread Christianity and save the natives from damnation.  Many of the conquistadors were, indeed, religious men, but history has shown that the conquistadors were far more interested in gold and loot.
