1 The Beginnings of Our Global Age: Europe and the Americas
Section 2: Spanish and Portuguese Colonies in the Americas Witness History Audio: A Missionary Protests Ruling the Spanish Empire The Spanish king appointed viceroys to rule its American provinces, with a Council of the Indies setting rules and monitoring activities. Catholic missionaries worked to convert Native Americans and set up mission churches. The colonies could only trade with Spain. Conquistadors were given encomiendas, which allowed them to force Native Americans to work in mines and on plantations. Some priests condemned the system. When Native Americans began to die from terrible conditions, Africans were brought in to replace them. Notes: Listen to the Witness History audio. Then read aloud the main idea for each subheading in this section and show the related visuals. After listening to the Witness History audio, ask, “How does the painting of the mine at Potosí reinforce Las Casas’s view?” (The picture shows the enormous scale of the silver mines, with humans forced to labor there like ants.)

Section 2: Spanish and Portuguese Colonies in the Americas Colonial Society and Culture Indian, African, and Spanish cultures blended. Colonial societies were split into social classes with the native Spanish at the top. Towns and cities grew and universities arose. Beyond the Spanish Empire Portuguese nobles were granted land in Brazil on which to build plantations, towns, and churches. Brazilwood was the first major export. Smugglers from other European countries traded illegally with the colonists, and pirates seized Spanish and Portuguese shipments. Notes: Listen to the Witness History audio.
