The Spanish primarily aimed to convert Indigenous peoples in the Americas to Christianity, particularly Catholicism. They believed it was their divine duty to spread their faith and save souls, often justifying colonization and conquest through this mission. Missionaries, especially from orders like the Franciscans and Jesuits, played a significant role in these conversion efforts.
