In the 18th century, the Spanish borderlands primarily encompassed areas in present-day southwestern United States, Mexico, and parts of Central America. Regions that were not considered part of these borderlands include the eastern United States, Canada, and most of South America, as well as territories in Europe and Asia. Additionally, areas north of the Rio Grande, particularly in what is now the United States, were often outside direct Spanish control or influence.
The Spanish Borderlands served several key functions, primarily as a buffer zone against foreign powers and indigenous tribes. They were also areas for the expansion of Spanish influence through missions, military outposts, and settlements, promoting both religious conversion and economic exploitation. Additionally, these regions facilitated trade routes and cultural exchange between Spain and its colonies, while also acting as a source of resources and new territories for Spain's growing empire.
There are two major Spanish borderlands. South west of Spain is the country of Portugal and north east of Spain is France.
The Spanish colonial frontier until the arrival of the United States, the Borderlands stretched from Latin America through California and the coastal regions up to Alaska, but disappeared with the independence of Mexico.
