Best Answer

As they gradually took control of territory in South, Central, and North America during the Colonial Period, Spanish colonists tried to change Native American cultures in numerous ways. Primarily, they sought to change the power-structure of these cultures, with Spain becoming the ruling authority. At the same time, they sought to convert the Native culture into a Christian one.
