Spanish explorers claimed land in the Americas through a combination of conquest, colonization, and treaties. They used military force to subjugate indigenous populations, establish settlements, and assert control over territories. The signing of treaties with indigenous groups or other European powers also played a role in legitimizing their claims to land.
Explorers claimed the new land for their home country, established settlements or trading posts, mapped the terrain, interacted with indigenous peoples, and exploited the resources they found.
The system used by the Spanish crown to grant land and labor to Spanish settlers in the Americas was known as the encomienda system. Under this system, Spanish settlers were given land and granted control over the indigenous population living on that land, in exchange for their loyalty and the obligation to protect and Christianize the native inhabitants.
Two explorers who claimed land in South America for Spain were Christopher Columbus and Francisco Pizarro. Columbus made his famous voyage in 1492, landing in the Caribbean islands, while Pizarro led expeditions in the early 16th century that resulted in the conquest of the Inca Empire in modern-day Peru.
Europeans claimed land on four continents: Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Australia.
The explorer who first claimed land in the Americas for the Dutch was Henry Hudson in 1609. He explored the river that was later named after him, the Hudson River, which led to Dutch claims in what is now New York.
