Why did the Spanish and English want to settle in North America if they knew it was dangerous?
The Spanish did not want to settle and colonize at first. They simply wanted to take all of the Natural Resources, but the royal court was like you can't just do that you have to give back in some way, so the Spanish were like okay while we are at it we might as well spread our religion and what not. There were many more Spanish men and the Native Americans wanted Spanish blood because the more Spanish you were the better off you were, so there was a lot of illegitimate babies called mesquite. The English wanted to settle because of the natural resources to be found, to escape from the recent black death, and for fear of over crowding. The reason the English were so skeptical was because of the horrible experience in trying to colonize Ireland. The reason Great Britain and Spain wanted the natural resources was due to the ideas of mercantilism. Hope this helps.
