Spain wanted control over the islands for their economic gains. This is what triggered the Spanish-American War which ended in 1898 with the defeat of Spain by USA.
Spain started losing colonies during and after the invasion of Spain by France. During the occupation the Spanish government was is disarray, weak and unable to defend herself, let alone control her colonies.
The status of American Indians in the economic activities of the Spanish and French colonies varied significantly. In Spanish colonies, American Indians were often subjected to the encomienda system, which forced them into labor under harsh conditions while also being converted to Christianity. In contrast, the French tended to engage in trade relationships with Native Americans, particularly in the fur trade, allowing for more collaborative and reciprocal economic interactions. Overall, while both colonial powers exploited Native populations, the nature of their economic relationships differed, with the French approach generally being less coercive than the Spanish.

Mercantilism practiced by Spain in her American colonies meant that the colonies existed primarily to benefit the mother country economically. This involved the extraction of precious metals, agricultural products, and raw materials, which were then exported to Spain. The colonies were restricted from trading with other nations, ensuring that wealth flowed back to Spain, reinforcing its economic power and enabling it to finance wars and maintain its empire. Overall, this system led to significant exploitation and limited the economic development of the colonies themselves.

Spain's desire to secure profits from its American empire led to the establishment of a mercantilist economic system, prioritizing the extraction of resources such as gold, silver, and agricultural products. This focus on resource extraction resulted in the implementation of strict trade regulations, limiting commerce to Spanish ships and requiring colonies to supply raw materials while importing finished goods from Spain. Consequently, the economic activities of Spanish America became heavily centered on mining and plantation agriculture, stifling local industries and fostering dependency on the Spanish crown for economic prosperity.
