The goal of the Spanish was to take anything of value and make it the property of the monarchy. The two most tangible were gold and land though in the end everything was taken. Land was conquered, riches seized, Indians enslaved.

Even their heritage was lost as Spaniard bred with Indian as did the negro slaves from Africa and what came out of it was an even more diverse culture, sad that the old one had to die in the process.
