Spanish explorers in the New World did more than explore. Their mission as "conquistadors" were to battle & defeat Native Americans in order to control large parts of North & South America. The "conquistadors" were able to steal silver and gold and send these precious metals back to Spain. Two famous conquistadors were Cortes and Pizarro.
