The Spanish and Portuguese brought religious communities to the Americas primarily to ensure the spread of Christianity among indigenous populations, as part of their broader colonial mission. These religious orders, such as the Jesuits, Franciscans, and Dominicans, played a crucial role in evangelizing, educating, and converting native peoples to Catholicism. Additionally, they aimed to establish social order and support colonial governance by promoting European cultural and moral values. This religious presence also facilitated the integration of indigenous peoples into the colonial economy and society.
