Colonization in America began in after Christopher Columbus Found the Americas in 1492. But Europeans did not land here to completely colonize America until 1607.
Colonization of America refers to the process by which European powers, primarily Spain, France, England, and the Netherlands, established settlements and claimed territories in the Americas from the late 15th century onwards. This movement was driven by the pursuit of resources, land, and economic opportunities, leading to significant cultural, social, and political changes. The arrival of Europeans had profound effects on Indigenous populations, including displacement, disease, and conflict. Ultimately, colonization set the stage for the development of modern nations in the Americas.
Latin America was often seen as a region on the periphery of the global economy and power structure, with many countries experiencing a history of colonization, exploitation, and internal political instability. This has resulted in challenges related to economic development, social inequality, and political influence on the global stage.
At that stage in human development, it was natural for all people to expand their territories. The Europeans were best at it.

What fascinates the conquest and colonization of latin america
The political entities of Africa decreased by the colonization of the Eurpeon countries and America (The political entities are the native countries that had retained their independance during the orignal colonization in 1880). Eventually only 3% of African still held independent countries by 1914. The other countries lost their rights and freedmon to other countries.
The blending of Europeans and Indigenous peoples is often referred to as "mestizaje" in Latin America. This term specifically describes the cultural and racial mixing that occurred during and after the European colonization of the Americas. Mestizos, individuals of mixed European and Indigenous ancestry, have played a significant role in shaping the social, cultural, and political landscapes of many Latin American countries.
