Vargas's trip to Santa Fe in 1691 was primarily aimed at re-establishing Spanish authority and governance in New Mexico following the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, which had expelled the Spanish. He sought to reconsolidate Spanish colonial power, reconnect with the Pueblo tribes, and restore the mission system. Vargas aimed to promote peace and cooperation between the Spanish settlers and the Indigenous peoples to ensure stability and secure the region for future colonization.
