"Columbus’s return from the New World created an abundance of activity throughout Europe. Old World monarchs dispatched explorers and small armies to the newly discovered continent to establish outposts, spread religious beliefs, and seek treasure. T...he advanced Indian civilizations of South and Central America were prime targets for invasion because of their abundance of gold and silver.
