The society in New Spain benefited the Spanish through the extraction of vast wealth, primarily in the form of silver and gold, which fueled the Spanish economy and financed its European wars. The establishment of encomiendas allowed Spanish settlers to exploit indigenous labor, enabling agricultural and mining production. Additionally, the spread of Spanish culture and Catholicism helped to consolidate Spanish power and influence in the region, reinforcing their colonial dominance. This combination of economic gain, labor exploitation, and cultural imposition solidified Spain's status as a leading global power during the colonial period.

The purpose of the Spanish missions in New Spain was to make the Native Americans into Christians.
The encomienda system in New Spain forced natives to work for nearby Spanish lords. This system granted the Spanish settlers the labor of indigenous people in exchange for protecting them and spreading Christianity. The encomienda system was a form of forced labor that exploited indigenous populations for the benefit of the Spanish colonizers.

I think it was the spain; or spanish:))
New Spain was considered a colony because it was established as a territory under the control of the Spanish Empire following the conquest of the Aztec Empire in the early 16th century. As a colony, it was governed by Spanish officials and operated primarily for the economic benefit of Spain, extracting resources such as gold, silver, and agricultural products. The indigenous population faced significant upheaval and exploitation, further solidifying its status as a colony. Additionally, New Spain served as a strategic base for Spanish exploration and expansion in the Americas.

Spain built missions in the borderlands of New Spain to convert Native Americans to Christianity. These missions served as religious communities where Native Americans were taught Christianity, agriculture, and other skills to assimilate them into Spanish colonial society.
Spain. That is why they are called "Spanish."
No. They called it 'New Spain'.
