Columbian
Exchange
PREVIEW
How did Spanish explorers change
the Americas?
Christopher Columbus went on an expedition
which is a journey with a special purpose. He
wanted to get to the Indies faster.
No one would pay for his trip going in the
“wrong” direction (west) until the King and
Queen of Spain offered.
Columbus thought he landed in the Indies, but he
actually landed in the Bahamas (San Salvador).
He did NOT get where he was going.
Spaniards Reach the
Americas
MC 5
On his expedition, Columbus
kept two logs: one with the exact
distances the ships sailed and one
with shorter distances in order to
mislead other explorers.
The Native Americans he met there Columbus called
the Taíno “Indios” because he believed he had
reached the Indies.
On Columbus’s future journeys he wanted to
set up a colony for Spain. A colony is a
settlement far from the county that rules it.
Spaniards Reach the Americas
The Columbian Exchange was the
movement of animals, plants, and
disease across the Atlantic Ocean.
Unfortunately, the Europeans also
brought germs and diseases.
This was killing millions of Native
Americans by the 1600s.
Spaniards Reach the Americas
Columbus believed he landed in the
Indies; however, Amerigo Vespucci
was the first to believe that America
was a new land.
As a result, America was named for
him by a German geographer in
1507 when he labeled the new land.
Lesson 3
Spanish Exploration and
Conquest
PREVIEW
Vocabulary
empire
conquistador
How did the arrival of Spanish explorers
change Native American empires?
Spanish Exploration and Conquest
Spain’s desire for wealth (gold) was the main reason they
wanted to conquer the Aztec and Inca Empires.
MC 10
Hernan Cortes landed in Mexico with over
500 conquistadors to take over the Aztec
capital of Tenochtitlan.
MC 9
Montezuma was the leader of the Aztec
empire.
Montezuma, welcomed the Spanish, but
Cortes took him prisoner and demanded
gold in return for Montezuma’s freedom.
After the Aztecs refused, violence
broke out. The Spaniards were
driven away, Montezuma was killed,
and the Spaniards left behind a
deadly weapon: smallpox.
Tenochtitlan = Mexico City
Spanish Exploration and Conquest
In South America lived the Inca. They were the wealthiest
empire in the world at the time.
The Inca empire was 2,500 miles long that was
linked together by a system of paved roads or
“highways.”
Messengers were able to carry important
information by RUNNING 50 miles a day!
Gold = “sweat of the sun”
Silver = “tears of the moon”
Spanish Exploration and Conquest
SA
The Inca began dying from diseases that spread quickly
throughout the empire before Pizarro arrived.
When Francisco Pizarro arrived with only
180 men, the Inca ruler of the North,
Atahualpa, was not concerned. He had a
bigger problem with Huascar, the
southern ruler of the Inca empire.
1In
a sneak attack, Pizarro and his
men surrounded Cajamarca, killed
thousands of Inca, and captured
Atahualpa. 2After Atahualpa filled
a room with gold and silver, the
Spaniards killed him, and sent
melted gold and silver back to
Spain.
Thus, Spain now controlled one of the largest empires in the world.
